Hank Williams Influence

Many of you know that I am fond of Hank Williams, having wandered the same "Lost Highway" that Hank did for much of my life. Today I want you to meet one of my acquaintances who has already gone home, but he was a major force in the development of country music, and especially in the development of Hank Williams Career.

For a little more information, and an introduction by Hank (talking about DeFuniak Springs, Florida), here is a good clip of "Pappy" Neal McCormick that is just an awesome piece.
