this was the first version i ever hear. when i was little back in the early 80's. I think this is the best way i have heard it sang.... Hank IS the best. I love Hank Jr.
I love Skynyrd as much as anybody BUT I am pretty damn sure that Hank meant this as a tribute to the band. Just listen to his ad-libbing. As for Hank kicking Ronnie's ass, that would be a sight to see. As Molly Hatchet's Dave Hlubek told me one time, "Dickey Betts had a black belt in judo, and he was scared of Ronnie."
Hank Williams Jr. Is King... Many Will try To Dispute The Fact But in The End You Will Know That Hank is The Real Deal, No Bullshit Downhome Good Ol' Country boy. I Salute You Hank! Play on Blues Man!
Ray Barrickman is the midgets name...lol. Yes, the Bama Band was and still is the best in the business no matter what decade. The X shaped lights was during the Double Eagle Tour in 1989 or 1990 for the Wild Streak Album. This video is from one of the first (if not THE first) concerts broadcast live via satellite. It was shot in Carbondale, Illinois at Southern Illinois University Carbondale Arena...about 20 miles South of where I currently live.
Hank does this as good as Skynyrd did. Thanks for uploading. noid jack....you should turn to the obituaries and read your name for the good of all mankind.
You're crazy. Find a way to post a poll and see what more people think. But I guess eyes are in the beholder. It's a good thing Ronnie isn't here to hear this.
noidjack: You're crazy. You find a way to post a poll and see what most people think? I don't give a rat's ass what you or anyone else "thinks." If you don't like Bocephus then get off his back. They got a saying and it goes a little something like this... "They say anybody that don't like Hank Williams, they can just kiss our ass!" Skynyrd was good but don't go tugging on Superman's cape, junior.
@LT1HILLINGHOE - I believe the "comments" section of YouTube is for users to post their comments, whether they be negative or positive in REGARD TO THE CONTENT. However, you seem to prefer to make personal attacks (as is evident in both of your posts).
People always leap to personal attacks on the computer, I never understood that. Surely if we were having this discussion in person a more "adult" conversation would be in order, senior.
Well, Bocephus is a friend of mine.....any attack on any friend of mine, I don't care who, is a personal attack on me. I take it that way. FYI...Randall learned a lot of his early Southern Rock style from the very ones who originated this song. Call it personal or call it what you will. Your comments are degrading to the man. If you can't take it then don't dish it, skippy.
Im a huge hank fan, seen him 3 times. Goin again in a month. But this live version isnt very good. Check out the studio version he did. UNBELIEVABLE.

The people talking shit about this version are retarded! How can you judge it when you can hardly even hear it?
...Hank Jr. is a damn good singer/Musician and i'm sure with better quality video it would kick major ass.

I totally remember that blonde midget on the bass from the hank concerts of the 80s. I also remember that x shaped light from the concert tour.
