Not to be confused with Hank Thompson's similarly titled, classic
album of drinking songs, SIX PACK TO GO: GONNA SHAKE THIS SHACK
TONIGHT is a collection that gathers together a generous 33 tunes
by the honky-tonk hero. Besides the alcoholic anthem of the title
track, there's a wealth of tunes that showcase Thompson's blend of
jazzy Western Swing riffs, boogie beats, and honky-tonk heartbreak.
From the hellbent barroom stomper "Drivin' Nails in My Coffin" to
the crying-my-eyes-out lament of "How Many Teardrops Will it Take,"
this carefully compiled anthology offers a well-rounded portrait of
the country king. Focusing on the roadhouse rockers more than the
ballads, this disc digs deep into Thompson's catalog, eschewing
such obvious hits as "Wild Side of Life" in favor of some of the
less explored areas of Thompson's long, rich career.
