Hank Williams Jr. Album: “Major Moves”

Major Moves is another great Hank Williams Jr album. The opener All My Rowdy Friends are Coming Over Tonight is a great way to start the album. Other highlights include Video Blues, Mr.Lincoln, Attitude Adjustment, Knoxville Courthouse Blues,and the title track Major Moves.Major Moves is a solid album from Hank,that all Hank fans will enjoy.

If "The Pressure Is On" is my favorite Hank album then "Major Moves" would have to be #2. Producer Jimmy Bowen really added some fine touches to this album. For example the harpsichord in "Mr. Lincoln" was his idea I am told. This is probably the best track on the album. The lyrics talk about how things would be different if ol' Abe was still around. Probably more relevant today than when this album first came out. Hank's cover of "Promises" by Eric Clapton is better than the original in my opinion mainly because he makes it sound like it should've in the first place. The hit "All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight" is included on this one but is really one of my least favorite tracks on the album compared to pure classics like "Country Relaxin", "Knoxville Courthouse Blues", and the title track "Major Moves". In a world where country music is slowly diminishing into a pop hybrid this album is a much needed dose of purity. Hank in his prime.

"All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight", "Promises", and "Country Relaxin'" are my favorites.

Thank goodness Hank Jr. is a country singer. He is one of my favorites.

This is one of my favorite Hank Jr. CDs. He Has songs on this cd that you can drink a beer to and also songs that will make you boogie. One of my favorite songs is "Attitude Adjustment" so many people today need them.
