My husband and I have been watching the mini series, I have never been a fan, but the history of it is fascinating.

Must watched about Hank Williams. I always knew he had a difficult life from hearing my father tell it , but boy he really had one sad , painful life . What a fantastic talent , and songwriter, just thinking of all the songs that could have been written had he lived beyond . it's easy to see how he was so loved and how some still feel he was and always will be the king of country music.

yes! This was all happening when i was in elementary school,and wasn’t listening. She was a baby when she was touring all ove4 the country with the grownups. Did she go to school? But what a voice. Patsy was gone by the time i was in junior high.

I really liked last night's show, especially loved the Loretta Lynn show afterward.
