The recordings were retrieved from a trash bin and ended up as part of the Williams estate – one she had to battle over as the previously unacknowledged daughter of the star, who never married her mother, Bobbi.

“It’s very intimate,” Jett Williams said of the recordings. “It’s like he came over to your house and he’s saying, ‘Let me tell you about the song I just wrote.”

Hank Williams made the recordings for the “Mother’s Best Flour” show on radio station WSM-AM in Nashville.

Jett didn’t know she was the daughter of the legendary songwriter until her 21st birthday, and struggled for years to be legally recognized as his daughter and as a country artist in her own right.
