| | Before Hank Williams, professional singers on the radio were about as likely to write their own songs as they were to tailor their double-breasted suits. | | | Bob Dylan called him his favorite songwriter; Leonard Cohen wrote a song about him; and Norah Jones is just the latest artist to cover his songs. | | | (Currently on stage in New York is Hank Williams: Lost Highway, a musical biography at the Manhattan Ensemble Theatre.) A bus tour, which included some musicians in Hank's old band, retraced his last route through Knoxville, Tenn. about four years ago, playing an impromptu tribute concert in Krutch Park. |

| | (Hank had begun writing songs shortly after he started singing and playing guitar and sold songbooks at his club appearances.) Within the year, however, Rose had made Hank's singing career a pet project and arranged for him to record four songs for the Sterling label in December 1946. | | | Hank didn't have to "interpret" sad songs; he had only to sing from his heart. | | | No one in Hank's circle wanted him to waste time or tape on "Lovesick Blues." The song was a throwaway, they said; a piece of fluff that was more likely to damage his career than enhance it. |
