Hiram "Hank" Williams died on January 1, 1953, and he was 29 years old.
Williams was an American singer-songwriter and musician regarded as one of the most significant country music artists of all time. Williams was born with a mild undiagnosed case of spina bifida occulta, a disorder of the spinal column, which gave him lifelong pain—a factor in his later abuse of alcohol and other drugs.
In 1951, Williams fell during a hunting trip in Tennessee, reactivating his old back pains and causing him to be dependent on alcohol and prescription drugs. This addiction eventually led to his divorce from Audrey Williams and his dismissal from the Grand Ole Opry.
Wanna buy some quack medicine Lod? Just kidding, but that's where a lot of commercial broadcasting got its start. Carter Family had to move to Mexican border to make a buck, border blaster station outside of US jurisdiction.
Possessed of one of the most distinctive voices and styles in radio, Wolfman Jack played rhythm and blues and partied wildly in the studios—or at least it sounded like he did. He told listeners that he was “nekkid” and urged them to disrobe as well. In a raspy voice that alternated from a purr to a roar, he sold his music, himself, and a myriad of patent medicines and oldies albums on powerful stations located in Mexico, just across the border from the United States.
Armed with 250,000-watt signals, his nighttime shows on stations such as Ciudad Acuña’s XERF reached most of North America beginning in the early 1960s. After a series of legal and political problems forced him to do his show by tape, the Wolfman took charge of XERB in Tijuana in 1966, hiring a mix of favourite disc jockeys and medicine men to fill the time. For his own show, he set up shop in a studio in Los Angeles and shipped his tapes to Mexico, where they were broadcast, reaching back to Hollywood and far beyond.
LOL, yeah Wolfman Jack was sort of at the tail end of that era. It all started with John R. Brinkley, who convinced his 1920's Kansas radio audience that goat testicle implants were the key to happiness. How he wound up in Mexico is less of a mystery than how he got wealthy in the first place.
