He paved the way for future over-achieving musicians to die before reaching 30.

In a wheelchair, age 29, driven by a teenager through the night.

What could go wrong?

I had not known these details.

There probably are biopic movies, but none recently. There needs to be a new one. The Johnny Cash, Doors and Ray Charles movies were successful, and the NWA/Compton movie also.

One of my nieces lives in California so I don't see her often.But we've had a running joke for years in which I say something like "Hey,want me to fire up the Hank Williams CD?" and she'd grimace (being a city girl through and through).

Whenever I hear Hank's songs..or name..I think of Jean.

I know that in 1953, the year I was born, there was no interstate highways system, but why was he as far east as Bristol if he was going from Knoxville TE to Dayton OH, [pretty much due north?

When I was just a little fellow, my granddad would play him on the car radio as we were driving out to the farm to dig soap weed, sumac and cactus.
But it had to be just us. Grandma was a church lady and objected to Hank’s wild ways.

But if Carr was suppose to take Williams from Knoxville to Dayton, OH, why didn’t he just go north along I-75 ???

Why did he go way east 40+ miles along I-40 and then north for 75 miles on I-81 to the TN/VA state line ???

Was he lost ???
