Rock Around the Clock: Honky Tonkin' - The Legacy of Hank Williams

on BBC Two England

Hank Williams Sr died in 1953 aged 29, a casualty of sex 'n' drugs 'n' country music.

Now his son is a platinum album seller and acclaimed Southern rocker. And the old man's ghost has been revived in a new generation of country artists.

Andy Kershaw meets Hank Williams Jr and Dwight Yoakam who's 'too country for Nashville'.
