The feature this week sees artists including Bob Dylan, Patty Loveless and Alan Jackson recreate the unfinished songs of Hank Williams.
On the 1st January 1953, while on the road, Hank Williams died at the age of 29, leaving behind 4 notebooks featuring ideas for about 66 songs.
Nearly 60 years later, Hank's granddaughter Holly Williams joined with the Country Music Hall of Fame and a range of Record Labels to complete this part of the Williams' Family Legacy.
13 artists from a large range of backgrounds join to piece together these songs and present them in a country setting, exploring 'what could have been' for the father of modern country music.
