Head to panel discussion on Hank Williams. Most fascinating aspect was
contributed by Greil Marcus, who talked about a movie that fancifully
described the last show Hank played.
"Hank Williams: The Show He Never Gave", featuring the great Sneezy Waters,
from Ottawa, as Hank. Based on the play written by Maynard Collins which
toured North America from 1977 to 1993. Waters nailed the role, winning
kudos from people like Minnie Pearl and Wesley Rose for his portrayal.
Waters also recorded a fine album of Williams covers in 1981.
