In 1948, Horace Hoss Logan, a young radio producer in Shreveport, Louisiana, started booking talent for a new weekly music show called the Louisiana Hayride. Performed for a live audience and broadcast nationally over the CBS Radio network, the show became known as the Cradle of the Stars.
In this affectionate memoir, Hoss Logan recalls the Hayride’s heyday with behind-the-scenes anecdotes about the dozens of musicians he knew and nurtured, including Johnny Cash, Johnny Horton, George Jones, Willie Nelson, Elvis Presley, Jim Reeves, Kitty Wells, Slim Whitman, Hank Williams, Faron Young, and many more. As producer, emcee, and friend to the Hayride performers, Logan gives us a personal look into musical history – from Hank Williams’s ups and downs to the teenage Elvis’s first performance on national radio to the ways the Hayride’s many emerging stars expanded our idea about what country music could be.
