Editorial Reviews
The Louisiana Hayride was a radio show that gave fresh talent a chance to perfect their distinct performance styles before a weekly live audience. During its heyday, between 1948-1958 "the hayride" rivaled even Nashville’s famed Grand Ole Opry in the number of country music careers that it spawned. Country music star Hank Williams, Jr. is the narrator of this fascinating country music documentary which explores the Shreveport, Louisiana musical roots of some of country music’s most venerable stars, including Hank Williams, Sr., Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Johnny Horton, George Jones and a host of others. This unique program uses old photographs, film clips and live transcriptions of old radio show recordings to tell its entertaining and informative story.

This review is from: Hank Williams Jr. - Louisiana Hayride (DVD)
A gem of a disc. The Louisiana Hayride was a starting point for many country music legends, and this program gives us a detailed look at some of the monumental figures who got their start here. It takes us back in time to a simpler place, and the idea behind this show is to provide details about the Louisiana Hayride, and what it meant to music. This is not about the artists, it's about the show/place. Overall, it's a wonderful program that'll leave you with a nice fuzzy feeling. Hank Williams Jr. narrates.

What a disappointment,

This review is from: Hank Williams Jr. - Louisiana Hayride (DVD)
I was hoping to get to see some good vintage performances from some classic artists. Instead I seen lots of talking and a few short short snippets of performances. What a waste, I know somewhere there is archived film footage rotting away in a box somewhere. I could be watching that instead of watching a whole lot of documentary.
3.0 out of 5 stars
