Hanging Out With Hank

You have the genius of Hank Williams in a relaxed setting, singing and joking around, pitching Mother's Best Flour between songs. He comes across as such an easy going guy, very friendly, witty, wise, and just sounding like a heck of a nice guy - and of course we already know about his brilliant talent. He sings his famous hit songs and many others. He also sings hymns, and although I'm not religious those are very enjoyable too. It's just an amazing little show, made amazing by a country music genius.
Great stuff---old time country music fans, Hank fans, give it a listen!

It is a good thing we don't make shows like this anymore. Sould have been named 'Birthing person's Best Flour Hour'. Why ignore half the population? Also Hank's songs recapitulate the dangerous bifurcated gender roles that ignore the immense contribution of intersexed persons to country music.
Hank and the Lovesick Blues Boys Rock!!
