A sudden, small kindness put a rising star on a private plane that crashed 22 minutes after takeoff - killing him three days after his song entered the Billboard country charts. How did a trade of a commercial airline seat for a spot on a four-seat Piper Comanche become the moment that ended Hawkshaw Hawkins's life and stalled a number-one record?
In this episode, we tell the story of Hawkshaw Hawkins from his childhood trade of five rabbits for a guitar through war, radio shows, and a career finally reaching the charts - and the fatal decision on the night of March 5th that led to the Camden, Tennessee crash. What unfolded in the 72 hours between his song charting and the wreckage in the woods?
