Henry Horenstein’s images of country music extend well beyond Nashville. In fact, many of the pictures in “Honky Tonk: Portraits of Country Music” were taken in New England, at long-gone venues such as the Hillbilly Ranch in Boston and the Lone Star Ranch in New Hampshire.

  “Dancing to Webb Pierce, Lone Star Ranch, Reeds Ferry, New Hampshire, 1972.” Horenstein said, “I didn’t really know him, but I’d say he was a pretty typical patron of the Hillbilly Ranch. A lot of times with those pictures at bars and honky-tonks, I didn’t really know what I was going to get, exactly. It was so dark that I would point my camera and guess at the focus and let the flash make the pictures.”

  “Lilly Brothers Reunion Show, Hillbilly Ranch, Boston, Massachusetts, 1978.” Horenstein said, “One of the reasons the Hillbilly Ranch was so popular was because of [West Virginia’s] Lilly Brothers. The local PBS station did a documentary on them and they came back to Boston and played. They made a live album that I don’t think Rounder Records ever released. But Rounder asked me to do the cover, and that’s the picture I got.”
