- Vintage Hank from 1979
While Kenny Rogers (of whom I am also a huge fan) was dominating the commercial aspect of country music with songs such as The Gambler and She believes in me, Hank was doing things his way, just as he always has done since he left MGM, with his unique blend of country, rock and blues. Of course, plenty of others have blended these three, including Elvis in the fifties, but Hank's blend is very much his own.
On this album, the my favorite tracks (but not by much) are the title track, Women I've never had and a brilliant duet with Waylon Jennings, The conversation, about Hank's father. There's also a great revival of White lightning, which was written by the Big Bopper but provided George Jones with a top ten American pop hit. Hank's cover is very different from George's but I love them both. Hank also does an excellent cover of Gregg Allman's Come and go blues.
Considering that Hank never did things the Nashville way, it is perhaps surprising that he had as much success as he did - but the quality of his albums, including this one, ensure that he deserved all the success that he had.

- Hank Williams, Jr.
If I could only have one Hank Jr album this would have to be it. Released in 1979, this is 100% pure outlaw country and "Whiskey Bent and Hell Bound" is one of the greatest country songs of alltime in my opinion. There are so many Hank Jr classics on here - "Outlaw Women", "Women I've Never Had", "O.D.'d In Denver" (another killer outlaw country song), "Come and Go Blues", and if that isn't enough you get Hank doing a duet with Waylon Jennings on "The Conversation" to end the album. This is just about as good as country music gets. 1 personas de un total de 1 encontraron útil la siguiente opinión:

To me this was Hank Williams Jr's best album. Not a bad song on it. He does an incredible acoustic version of the Allman Brothers "Come and Go Blues". I originally bought this when it was released in 1980 on vinyl. 1 personas de un total de 1 encontraron útil la siguiente opinión:

There ain't much to talk about if you'll talk about Hank. His sound is unique and matchless, and this album is one of his diamonds.Listening to this album I can almost see myself in a trashy bar sippin' from my glass of Old Jack. Yeeeowww!! Pure and outlaw country! just the way it should always be. - Awesome!
I love this cd! I actually only bought it for the song "Outlaw Women" but enjoyed all the songs, how could I not, it's Hank Jr! |
