Hank Williams are the opposite of the Star Trek movies: the odd numbered ones (Hank, Hank III) are a lot better than the even (Hank Jr).
IV is making records now, and doing surprisingly well
Thanks for the update!

Maybe 2 is just a called exception, like an even prime, then?

And true to the above posters prognosis, he’s pretty bad.
Listening to I'm so lonesome as cracker blues makes for an interesting interpretation. Not just compositionally: has anyone checked his tuning by cents? I wonder if the "warble" might be due to real fifths and blue notes, as perceived against a standard-tuned band?

Oxford in this case refers to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxford,_Mississippi, where you'll find Oxford University School, in contrast to the somewhat better known University of Oxford. There is a major university in Oxford, but it's the University of Mississippi, which is only marginally less confusing than Cambridge holding two world-leading universities, Harvard and MIT.
I was going to come out and defend Oxford and the Oxford American (Oxford is a rich and active literary mecca, and the Oxford American is a notable literary journal), but learned more strange and confusing facts: the Oxford American has actually been based out of Arkansas for years now!
