Agree with DAVID GREEN..we watched the HANK LOCKLIN SPECIAL on WSRE CH.23 tonight and it was very informative…we are blessed in this community to have so many talented musicians that love to play at the BARRINEAU PARK COMMUNITY CENTER…and Mr.Vince Gil said it best.
not only was Hank a great singer and songwriter..he was a genuine good guy and helped many others along the way.
It is well done, too.
I saw it on an Alabama station last week or so.
