fact
1882 - Oscar K. Allen was born on this day. The 42nd Governor of the state of Louisiana and a native of Winn Parish in Louisiana. His contributions to Louisiana Music are so few, that we couldn't find a biography with the mention of it. However, his contibution to Blue's music is enormous and legendary as he is the person who pardoned Lead Belly (Huddie Ledbetter) from Angola State Penitentiary in 1934.
