Hiram King “Hank” Williams, Sept. 17, 1923 - Jan. 1, 1953

On. Jan 1, 1953, somewhere between Knoxville, Tenn. and Oak Hill, W. Va., the greatest country singer and the greatest songwriter of the 20th century passed away in the back seat of a baby blue 1952 Cadillac. Hiram King "Hank" Williams Sr. scored his first hit in 1947 with "Move It On Over." Although his career in the spotlight only lasted 4 years, in that 4 years he forever changed the face of popular music. His songs would be recorded by everyone from Perry Como to Isaac Hayes to the Melvins to Social Distortion. Very few artists have transcended the genres like Hank and certainly no one has ever put words to paper quite like him. His nickname, "Hillbilly Shakespeare," only speaks to his greatness. Today marks the 63rd anniversary of Hank Williams' passing, but I believe the pastor of Hank's funeral, Henry Lyon, said it best -- "If this world should last a thousand years, Hank shall remain dear to millions of hearts."
