Surprising though it may be even to some hardcore George Thorogood fans, Hank Williams was as much a musical influence and hero, by George's own admission, as Bo Diddley and John Lee Hooker. "Move It On Over" was a perfect tune for the Destroyers, as it was for Hank himself in a completely different way; and here George has personalized Hank Williams's rendition of "Pictures From Life's Other Side," with affecting results, as he pays tribute not only to Hank Sr. but to the troubled souls and less fortunate folks all around us.
