“I only wish he had lived to see his album re-released. I am a volunteer dj on 2 NPR stations in Alaska and was so excited when I heard him the 1st time. I had to get The "Social World" of Rodger Wilhoit. REAL HONKY TONK. I hope up there in heaven he is making everyone happy singing about life. ✌️ He WAS the REAL DEAL. Nancy Crowden Willow, Alaska”
