Rosie & I are going to see the Hank Williams play-bio-songfest

on Jan. 25th. I am a huge HW

fan. (Not so Rosie, who had to be patiently talked into it. “White trash

music!” she sniffs when I play HW. Rosie, in most respects a sweet and

charitable soul, has a streak of class snobbery. Amazing that after 16 yrs

she has still not woken up to the fact that SHE MARRIED WHITE TRASH.)

Anyhoo, it has occurred to me that I have never read a proper biography of

HW. Checking Amazon, I see at least three. One will be quite enough,

thanks–but which one should I read? Anyone know which is the best HW

biography? Answers to [email protected] please–my hotmail account silts

up with 250K emails promising to enlarge my organ/breasts/portfolio, so the

2K emails from friendly readers get bounced with “Inbox full” messages. I

wish Hotmail would do something about this.
