In the 1970s, Henry Horenstein was a young photographer who shot album covers for Rounder Records; in his off-hours he immersed himself in country music at show venues, music parks, and the rural saloons that coursed with the music and its rough-and-tumble lifestyle: honky tonks.
This book offers a candid, devoted look at a thriving scene as it was lived and performed. 'Honky Tonk' is filled with lively portraits of local cowboys, townies, and bar rats. Horenstein's photographs capture a pivotal time in American music history, when musicians and fans converged to step out, strum, and strut their stuff.
