Publisher's Synopsis
The rise of country music stars in the South is synonymous with the history of the Louisiana Hayride on KWKH. Will K. Henderson, whose initials formed the name of the station, was the nations first shock jock. Through his popular on-air programing, he gave a platform to entertainment that was different from that heard elsewhere. His independent station hosted Louisiana Hayride, the country music variety show that introduced a host of unknown singers who are now legends including Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, and Elvis Presley. Author Joey Kent has gathered never before seen images and information from his private archive to share with music fans across the world.
