Hank Williams jr (Cant you see)

[@dekelanson5280]

I know some earlier Hank fans didn't like the new country-rock sound, but the fact is, he was sick of doing the stuff that MGM wanted him to record.We all see all these years later, Hank was right.After all he went through, he carved out an incredible career, millions upon millions of records sold, and finally going into the country hall of fame.Long overdue.Well done Bocephus.

[@therandomsoldier710]

Hank loved what was going on in the country rock, southern rock phases in the 70s, and not only him who hated doing what the recording company wanted him to do but Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson did the same, too. Crazy how their sound changed a whole lot in the 70s.

[@WarrenCBennett]

@@therandomsoldier710 And yet that sound is still more country than what you hear on 'country' radio now. Amazing, that.

[@skepchica]

​@therandomsoldier710 There's a big blues influence in his playing too. I don't think personally realize how talented he really is. He pulled all these different influences to come up with his own unique sound. Waylon recorded this song too. When country music started getting a bigger, slicker sound with more synthesized music, Waylon kept stripping it back down to the basics. Nothing around today even compares to the outlaw country era.

[@eddiemcdowell3351]

Sounds like you know hank

[@roofermarc1]

Love me some Bochepus. He said Obaca was a mongloid and was fired from espn. Remember that?

[@sctwildcat]

his 70's-80's stuff is some of the best country music ever recorded

[@jonburrows2684]

Amen to that!

[@1801infarctus]

yeah with habits old and new ;)

[@rebelnpink1968]

Watching these old videos has made me appreciate Hank jrs talent on the guitar. He is getting into the Hall of Fame soon, as he should.

[@Bucky1836]

They finally did a week ago

[@hadleymason707]

Hank is the most talented of all time. I’ve seen him twice in concert and each time he’ll play every single instrument on stage

[@patcoleman8443]

He plays EVERY instrument !!!! professionally .... even piano ... he is sorely underrated as a multi- instrumentalist

[@Necrostoner]

On stage a year after falling 500ft. Goddamn, man. I’ll always have the upmost respect for Hank and for everything he’s contributed to music.

[@JoeOtero]

He was born famous, but he worked hard for his legend status

[@toddricketts9498]

What year was this

[@scottsterrett9606]

What I’d give to have grown up in this time, when America was America and music was amazing. Best time ever! 🇺🇸🤘🏼

It was pretty cool.

Never was country guy much until I started lsitening a few eyars ago, now I cant get enough, this guy is one the best voices ever. period.

[@blackie75]

ronnie toots you'd better have a listen to his father....

[@MrPAULONEAL]

+Mox_au Even Waylon Jennings said Hank Jr was better than Hank Sr...

[@ronnietoots6797]

+Mox_au my friend, I am 61, I grew up on them ole' guys so yeah "Hey Good Lookin" still makes me smile!!!!!...I do however love the Hank Jr., he is strong manly man who I feel there aren't enough of these days....(read Bieber, REM, the Verve), most of the people on the award shows couldn't change a tire on their own car, they couldn't clean and cook a duck nor could they probably fk their own girl more than once a day...so yeah I am proudlyl one of the old ones who is comfortable seeing the old school guys.

[@MrPAULONEAL]

Hank Jr makes Sr look like a share cropper.

[@JGSmith82]

+Paul O'Neal Comparing Hank Jr and Hank Sr, is not the best way to approach the subject. Both father and son are true greats but very different styles in terms of song writing and musical sound. I could listen to both all day depending on what kind of mood I am in. Nevertheless both are true geniuses in their own right.

[@chriscosby2459]

I love the Hank Jr and Waylon sound.

[@AverageGamezzz]

Very different than his father. It's not fair to compare the two. Hank Sr. is THE legend but Jr. is a legend in his own right too.

[@MontanaFlying]

AverageGamezzz the only thing legendary about him is the ass whooping he took after playing cowboy on the East side of Montana...a poker player he ain't

[@hunterhayes4203]

Imagine what hank sr would of sound like at his son age

[@jetsfan7917]

Yet so much alike also

[@malloryames6928]

Yet hank jr could actually do his fathers stuff just as good as hank sr in his younger days and before he slipped off the Ajax mount he seem to stick around his dads style after he recover from the mountain fall hank seemed to do his own stuff which I love both versions of hank his younger days and these late 70s early 80s to late 80s stuff which he looked to be having more fun when he did what he wanted

[@malloryames6928]

Waylon and you Caldwell and those guys helped hank big time in his down fall I think Waylon paid to record the new south albums if I’m not mistaken

[@andyvarner6527]

rockin randal hank jr ripped this tune a new ass......love it!!!!!

[@cronotrig2907]

Waylon Jennings does too!

[@aaronnbroussard3108]

Yea I Hear ya He picked that Dam Thing 🤪😄😁👍💪

Thank God for Hank jr the nights a running around listen to his music singing every word with all my rowdy friends

[@joseywales7270]

Hank jr on Styx river

[@walkawayjoe]

Ol' Hank is a natural born guitar player and does it his way. In the 70's he really learned how to get down on a guitar from Gary Rossington, Dickey Betts,Toy Caldwell and alot of others. He's one of the few great talents that has ever come along. Been going to see Hank when he comes town since the 80's and his guitar playing just got better and better everytime. Nobody plays like good ol Bocephus.

[@garyholschuh-ft6gz]

I had no idea he was so fortunate to have so many Southern Rock guitar greats take time to show him a thing or two, but it was and still is Hank Williams Jr.!

[@garyholschuh-ft6gz]

I agree with 90% of what you wrote, but I wouldn't give any accolades to Gary Rossington. He was a 2 bit player at very best. Other than a little slide work on Freebird and feedback on That Smell, his contributions to the world of guitar were actually comical.

[@walkawayjoe]

@@garyholschuh-ft6gz can't say I agree with you on that one. I do however think much more credit to Skynyrd's great guitar sound belongs to Allen Collins . Him and Rossington gave that band their unmistakable sound . Skynyrd at the Old Grey Whistle Test from 75 is a perfect example

[@walkawayjoe]

@@garyholschuh-ft6gz yeah he was pickin on all his old man's songs since a just a kid . That's alot guitar playin experience but his own songs on just an acoustic are by far the best he does

[@adammoore2265]

This is one my favorite songs ever and this version is hands down the best.

[@Invictus13666]

No shit. One of my dreams was to get a huge pile of money, then hire about ten of my favorite performers to record their own style versions of this song.

[@Chillguylowkeynotgivingaf]

Nah the original by the marshall tucker band is the best

This one really shows of his pickin'. Natural born entertainer.

[@brewskytrucker]

[@Almasy113]

brandon fox no shit man. He’s not just singing this song while a band plays it, and half-assembly strumming a guitar for show. He’s making almost all the sounds in this song that matter, and he’s doing it perfectly.

[@rocknroll7316]

There's a point in the solo where he misses a note. It's legit.

[@bradorr3920]

Just think how much great music we could have lost had Hank not survived that fall. There’s a lot of tragic stories in rock music about what might have been (Lynyrd Skynyrd, Jim Croce, and even Hank Williams Sr. come to mind), but this is one guy we can thank our lucky stars made it through

[@martintimberlake2243]

I cant even imagine life without Hank just no way. I am sixty and have listened to him as long as I can remember. He and Elvis are the GOATs

How do you not love this video. Sounds like a song of victory for Hank at his point in life that he sang this song.

[@joecalhoun5303]

Absolutely

[@Slevarno]

Gonna fall down an no one gonna know !

[@madcapper6]

This song always struck me as more southern rock than country. This is the best "country" cover of this song I've heard though and there have been a lot of good ones. Waylon always covered the song well too.

[@madcapper6]

I would classify southern rock as a sub genre of rock with blues and country elements but not quite as country itself. I wouldn't call Willie Nelson "southern rock" and I wouldn't classify Blackfoot, the Ozark Mountain Daredevils, ZZ Top or Molly Hatchet as "country and western." But yes, the Marshall Tucker Band was a bit more country and western than a lot of other southern rock bands.

[@TheThomasmoon]

I never heard a bad version of this song

[@whitewitchoz]

Black Oak Arkansas was more rock than country.

[@stephenthornton4210]

as a kid growing up it was "a country boy can survive" and "family tradition" but as I got older this is now by far my favorite Bocephus performance! Just look at the way he plays his guitar and that happy smile on his face... that was pure joy standing on that stage... hank Jr has always been my favorite country artist... and until someone else comes along with a better story and more heart and soul to outshine a true legend, he always will be... although I can't imagine that happening in my lifetime or for several generations in the future. this video really shows the pure heart and strength that he had to overcome such a horrible accident and look at the way he shined! for all you haters out there why don't you just try to go back and think of another man who has overcome the shadow of a legendary performer, (hank sr) the tragedy of near death experience, then drug and alcohol addiction. Hank Jr has overcome so much in his lifetime and beaten it all back with a big stick and is still on top of his craft! If you happen to read this Hank, you are loved by millions worldwide and id consider myself your biggest fan! And before I forget, anybody that likes Obama can kiss our ass!
