Summary
At the peak of his career in 1951, Hank Williams recorded 143 songs for the Mother's Best Flour Company. These shows are the first truly three-dimensional portrait of one of the giants of American music. What emerges is a full, rounded portrait of Williams at his creative and commercial peak. It's a rare, informal glimpse into the heart and soul of country music's greatest star who passed away on New Year's Day 1953, at age 29. Bonus DVD includes the story of the unreleased recordings in a behind-the-scenes conversation between Hank's daughter, Jett Williams, and two members of Hank's band, Don Helms and Big Bill Lester
