- Hank is Back and in Your Face!
I heard "I'm one of You" at a concert this year at the IL State Fair and absolutely loved it so I waited for this album. After listeneing early on to the album, I started realizing that Bocephus was back at it again with his gritty hard-nosed style. Haven't really seen that in a while except for an occasional song or two but this album is packed full.
The remake of Jerry Reed's "Amos Moses" was done well. Hank didn't butcher it at all. "I'm one of You" is totally an anthem based song and I think Hank is trying to tell people he's gettin pissed off at what's going on in the world today (I agree!). The best song though on the whole album has got to be "Waylon's Guitar". It was a tribute to the late-great legend and Hank put his heart and soul into it.
It's hard hitting, tongue in check (as usual) and rockin' your country boots off. There's no way to not get excited when listening to this. If you're a Hank, Bocephus, Rockin' Randal fan then this will not let you down on bit. Heck, it may even get you fired up!

- Hank is BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Although there were a few good ones on Almeria Club (his last release) If you liked Hank back in his hay day, this will bring back some memories especially with Waylon's Guitar, which is more his style............. keith (oklahoma city, oklahoma) - April 06, 2004

- 50 was the last COOL album; Hank is still a force
He can cover songs or write them. The title track and his tribute to Waylon make this worth the money. The rest is just gravy. Maybe there's a little corn in the gravy, but it's the best in a long time!

- Hank Has Returned!!!!
If this isn't the best Hank Jr album ever it's in the top 3! A must for any country fan! "Devil In The Bottle" is the most moving song I have EVER heard! And how great was it to hear this version of "Jambalaya"?!?!?! Hank out did himself with this one! I don't buy CD's anymore but I bought this one...IT WAS THAT DAMN GOOD!

- Pure Country...Pure Hank
"I'm One of You" is not only one of the best Hank efforts in recent years, but one of his best period ! It has everything you would expect from Bocephus, country mixed with southern rock with some soul and funk thrown in for good measure. The biggest selling country artist of the 80's proves he still has his chops in 2003, and with this album shows why he's a legend. Every song on the CD is excellent, from the first song "Amos Moses" (an old Jerry Reed penned tune) to the last "Devil in the Bottle" (a traditional, country weeper that Hank covered in the 70's), it is nothing but possible hit after hit. Stand-out songs include "Liquor to Like Her", "I'm One of You", "What's on the Bar" and a tribute to the late, great Waylon Jennings in "Waylon's Guitar". If you like good, old Outlaw country from one of the all time greats, get this CD. Now if country radio can take some time away from playing country/pop lite and put Hank back into the rotation.... |
