You know, Country & Western!
This ain't your Dad's country music. It's your Granddad's! None of that new Nashville bullshit either. This is where you'll find what I consider the best in Country (Classic and Alt), Folk, and Americana.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Faron Young - Wine Me Up
Hijinx with Faron and Ralph Emery In 1990.
The interview part. Some good stories about Faron & Hank Williams.

Hank Williams - Why Don’t You Love Me
Happy 89th to Hank Williams, Sr. Can you imagine if he’d made it this far?
For perspective, Little Jimmy Dickens is 91, Ray Price is 86, George Jones is 81, Willie is 79 and Merle is 75.
Hank Williams - Kaw-Liga
Saw Moonrise Kingdom the other day. A bunch of Hank Williams songs in the soundtrack. Great movie (if you like Wes Anderson movies).
Hank Williams - Moanin’ The Blues
Hank Williams at head of the table, Ernest Tubb at opposite end.
I wanna say Hank Thompson and Tex Ritter too, but can find no evidence to back this up.
Just judging by the soundtrack alone, this Last Ride flick based on Hank Williams has terrrrrible written all over it.
SPOILER: He dies at the end.
Framed or unframed. Take your pick.
