Honky Tonk Blues on PBS

PBS is airing (in NY on Thirteen) its American Masters episode "Hank Williams: Honky Tonk Blues" tonight at 8. For any fans of Hank's, the episode web site has some great information: an essay, career timeline, additional footage, and interview with filmmaker Morgan Neville.

If you haven't seen it already (it's a DG oldie but goodie), check out Aaron Augenblick's mesmerizing, strangely moving animated robot singing Hank's "Ramblin' Man."

What's your favorite Hank Williams song? (Mine is -- well, today, at least -- "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry.")
