Description
Hank Williams (1923-53) was country music’s first superstar at the time of his death at age 29. Lingering pain from untreated spina bifida drove him to self-medicate, as well as to pour out his feelings in songs such as “Your Cheatin’ Heart”, “Cold, Cold Heart’ and “Lost Highway”. By the time of his death he had 30 Top 10 hits, and eleven songs that reached #1. Today his son and grandson carry on name and his musical tradition.
