It was 76 years ago today, that “The Louisiana Hayride” had to first broadcast.
Live from the Municipal Auditorium in downtown Shreveport on April 3, 1948, Horace Logan, the original producer, emceed it inaugural show on KWKH radio station, which station manager Henry Clay created.
The guest on night included the “Bailey Brothers, Johnnie and Jack, The Tennessee Mountain Boys (with Kitty Wells), the Four deacons, Curley Kinsey & The Rebbessee Ridge Runners, Hamie Smith, the Ozark Mountaineers, the Mercy Brothers and Tex Grimsley & The Texas Showboys.
The name “Louisiana Hayride” was taken from the 1941 book by Garnett Thomas Kane, titled with the same name.
With a year, The Hayride grew to a 25-station network, which also included broadcast overpass on Armed Forces Radio.
While the flagship station continued to be KWKH 1130 AM, it not only could be heard on much bigger stations like WLW in Cincinnati, it soon made it way onto the growing new technology called ‘television.’
Of course it spawned the floodgates of hundreds of country music and rockabilly greats to perform there, such as Hank Williams, Webb Pierce, Hank Snow, Faron Young, Slim Whitman, Jimmie Davis, George Jones, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, Lefty Frizzell…..and of course…..Elvis Presley!
The Louisiana Hayride’s run continued until August 27, 1960, but KWKH continued to use the name to package musical tours throughout the 1960’s.

This Week’s Theme: The National Recording Registry Part One (Pre-1955)
This week we are taking a deep dive into the historical research aspect of the Radio Faux Show. This week’s show is best described as a collection of recordings rather than a playlist of songs because this week’s show is part one of a four-part show about the National Recording Registry. I have been planning this theme for…
