Tom T Hall - Discography

Tom T Hall - Discography

Born: May 25, 1936 
Died: August 20, 2021
R.I.P.

Tom T. Hall is known as a storyteller, a songwriter with a keen eye for detail and a knack for narrative. Many musicians have covered his songs -- most notably Jeannie C. Riley's 1968 hit "Harper Valley P.T.A." -- and he also has racked up a number of solo hits, including seven number one singles.


Hall is the son of a bricklaying minister, who gave his child a guitar at the age of eight. He had already begun to write poetry, so it was a natural progression for him to begin writing songs. Hall began learning music and performing techniques from a local musician, Clayton Delaney. At the age of 11, his mother died. Four years later, his father was shot in a hunting accident, which prevented him from working. In order to support himself and his father, Hall quit school and took a job in a local garment factory. While he was working in the factory, he formed his first band, the Kentucky Travelers. The group played bluegrass and gigged at local schools as well as a radio station in Morehead, Kentucky. The station was sponsored by the Polar Bear Flour Company; Hall wrote a jingle for the company. After the Kentucky Travelers broke up, Hall became a DJ at the radio station.

Hello Ozzieguy, thanks for this selection of Tom T Hall. However, the links are not working. When I click the link, I am sent to a mediafire page, which has this message "may be available for download from Amazon." Thanks for your help & thanks for a great Blog!

Hello Alfred
Thank you for telling me of the mediafire problem.
I will move them to a better place.

Usually if you persevere with the link it will ignore the Amazon site and go to Mediafire.

Usually if you persevere with the link it will eventually ignore the Amazon site. Can take 2 or 3 attempts though.
