Oil City - Huddie William Ledbetter

The Caddo Indians roamed the forest lands in this area in a much
earlier time. Steamboats occupied the chain of lakes, bayous, and
the Red River, transporting passengers, laborers, cotton and
booze.


He began to develop his own style of music after exposure to
various musical influences on Shreveport's Fannin Street, a row
of saloons, brothels, and dance halls now referred to as
Ledbetter Heights
