  • someone bring back "Loving Insructor" and "Fat Friends"

  • was this before or after the accident?

  • @MultiverseGamingPro

    After. You can tell from looking at his nose and mouth. They're just not quite right.

  • great music, HORRIBLE fashion sense!

  • @laslos3 Naw man, thats bout the best fashion there is. Me and my buddies still wear our nice pants and boots. I wear that to work all the time. And these women know how to dress and get a guy with personality. Not no damn whores like we got now a days

  • @laslos3 This was the 70's dick face.

  • @vrodzesea fuck you cunt breath

  • @laslos3 Best comeback ever. I will for ever be insulted my 10 year old brother plays better guitar then you fucking pussy.

  • @vrodzesea Go play more COD troll... When you are done with that, there are grammer lessons readily available to watch as well.

  • @laslos3 I think your very mad it's fine you're a very bad musician. I have seen better come back's from a ham sandwich. Plus I would shit on you USMC GET SOME.

  • @vrodzesea the latter of that statement ventures well to explain the afore mentioned propensity towards grammatical error. FYI I know a lot of Marines and served with several who deserved the title...you, on the other hand, are either a POG or just a troll...

  • @vrodzesea "My name is vince i love to play games and have fun. I also love my country very much. I am the united states army 11B Infantry." Marine huh?!?!?! hahahahaha I bet your a stupid depper! thanks for the laughs man! BTW Vince, is the Army still selling it's surplus gigline?

  • @vrodzesea You are one dumb mother fucker who cares if i play game's like i said games have nothing to do with the military and game's didn't influence me to serve my country. Its something i have always wanted to do since i was a little kid so stop fucking creepen on my page like a homo. Your music is horrible and that's cool. Just do what you keep doing living on welfare.

  • What year is this from?

  • Before anyone comments...I know he didn't write this song !!!

  • I may not agree with Hank's politics...But I sure do love his music !!! I am glad he wrote all those songs !!! 2nd to none !!!

  • If you don't like Bocephus, you don't have much appreciation for music. He's a talented SOB in his own right!

  • Not as good as tucker but a good cover

    

  • Nice hat. What, are you going trick or treating or something?

  • What year was this?

    

  • AWSOME!!!!!

  • Love America?  You gotta love Hank. Greatest entertainer ever!

  • I love that part at :58 "gonna climb a mountain" LMAO Hank fans know the irony of that. LMAO

  • IT IS HARD TO BELEIVE THAT HE WAS HURT AS BAD AS THEY SAY AND END UP BACK IN THAT SHAPE AGAIN AND ABLE TO PLAY AND SING

  • what year was this?

  • Wow!!!

  • @ sickbubblegum....I recently lost 60 lbs on weightwatchers program, I wish you well in your efforts too lose it and keep it off friend. god bless.

  • he learned how to pick like that from Waylon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @oldcountryonlyway Luke Jr. learned his guitar picking from the original Lynyrd Sknyrd band. He can play 13 instruments and play them all very well. No one is more talented than Luke Jr.

  • @LT1HILLINGHOE  whos luke jr.?

  • @oldcountryonlyway You're kidding right?

    Luke the Drifter Jr. 

  • he is straight up amazing

  • Makes me proud to be from Alabama.

  • some people just dont know..and NEVER will

  • One of the most rockin performances from anyone.

  • That Rocked!

  • Raughwe, I am not knockin' your Les Pauls in any way, shape, or form. Hell, I'm working on procuring the requisite funding for an SG myself ( I appreciate the Les Paul tone- and the better looks). To say the Les Paul twangs " just as well" though....is just plain not so. Can it twang? Yes....but you admit yourself- it requires more from the player. Telecasters are widely known for having tons of "snap"....and it's easy to get. I play an American Deluxe Tele now, and it's no lightweight, either.

  • Hank was great back then... Ralph was always a duche bag...

  • He is skinny because he was recovering from a mountain climbing accident in Montana where he fell 500 feet and landed on his face. He spent months with no teeth. It knocked his right eye completely out hence the dark glasses. He plays guitar so well because as he got able he spent months (with his head in bandages as they reconstructed it) teaching himself to play lead because he was hurt so bad he was almost sure his singing career was over. Like him or not he is a great talent.

  • Best shit i have seen in a while.

  • Goddamn, Hank could sing back then........and anyone who's worthy of criticizing knows that was a damn fine job of playing as well. That thin sounding, non distorted Telecaster tone is a whole different world from an overdriven, humbucker'd Gibson.

  • @rocknut75: I agree, to a point. A Gibson Les Paul, played clean through a tube amp, twangs just as well the Telecaster. Why, then, isn't the Les Paul the modern industry standard for 'chicken pickin'? Because it requires more force (forearm and wrist) and she's heavy as an anvil. A sizeable chunk of the picking you've heard on classic country singles and records is being played on an undistorted Gibson, using the treble pickup, on an antique Fender amp.

  • Wish I could do a little guitar pickin', I love when they make it ramble!

  • This was when he was mainly just country, before he started to like Rock-N-Roll and like smoking weed. He took a turn for the best i think.

  • Very talented.

    Hank fan for life!

    HFFL!

  • @ sickbubblegum863..hank jr was skinny, naturally, he has adopted the "middle age spread." lol. i think this was the point where he was trying to reinvent himself as well. post accident.

  • @Elkins2424 Hank Jr. has been a little overweight for the better part of his life since about 1970. He was small here because he had just went through a very traumatic ordeal. He has been up and down through the years and deals with weight issues all the time with dieting and going off of a diet, just like me.

  • omg he was so skinny there why?

  • @sickbubblegum863 age man,. he was young here,

  • He was young.......that's why.

  • U ROCK HANK JR.

  • Hank Jr. at his best. When gets down and just plays good music there are few in his league.

  • best tune ever

  • No one plays Can't you see better than Toy Caldwell

  • Hers The List of Gospel ... JESUS, JOHN, HANK ... SHOUNT.CM

  • Hank is the fuckin man!!!!

  • this was filmed right after his accident

  • Simply awesome...

    

  • this guys better than this guy, and he's a way better singer, guitar player,lol. most of who i see being compared to each other are actually good friends in real life, and if not friends, they respect and look up to eachother, put that in your pocket for later

  • 3 people must be blind....

  • Very cool video. Thanks for sharing with my show VivaNashvilleUSA . com

  • He was still real skinny wasn't he? i guess you would though having your jaws wired shut.

  • Eat your heart out Marshal Tucker Band!

  • lol yakko you just might be a retard

  • Listen to that TELE!

  • Bocephus rules. Period. End of conversation. :)

  • Bocephus rules. Period. End of conversation. :)

  • if you don't like hank jr you can kiss my ass

  • Wasn't this a Marshall Tucker Band song?

  • @FoamCups428 Yes

    

  • @FoamCups428 Yeah it was and Toy wrote it , but Luke Jr. owned this song like no other when he sung it.

  • @LT1HILLINGHOE Hank wrote it and gave it to Toy

  • @12889414 no, Toy caldwell wrote the song

  • @johnwaynejohnson I'am starting to believe I didn't read Hank wrote this song in the book living proof if I was wrong sorry for the bad info.

  • Comment removed

  • Hank Jr. needs to release a dvd box set of concerts from the late 70's early 80's.

  • this was some of his best work. back then and now.you can tell in his voice that he was still healing.

  • love the red x on tha guitar.. just like sweet home alabama state flag

  • ha ha if hank jr sucks on any instrument ill kiss your ass. not only can he play the fuck outta the guitar but he has mastered many other instruments. piano drums bass steel fiddle. how many instruments can you play>? can you play a piano better than the killer? what anj idiot i suppose waylon cldnt play a guitar either.lol what a dumb fuck you are

  • @TheJamestollison don't forget he can play the banjo as well!!

  • @TheJamestollison ... EVERYTHING Hank has Done & Redone is better Than The Original , Hank Does IT like No One Else Can or Will !!!

  • To the one dislike... u can kiss my rebel dick!

  • @wagushish5678 and the other 2 as well

  • @wagushish5678 hell yea brother you said it !!!!!

  • @TheMrleadguitar jimis hero was fucking billy gibbons

  • For those criticizing the way he's playing guitar--- Hank Jr. is an AMAZING guitar player. Looking at the way he looks in this clip, I think it was shortly after his mountain fall. How well can you play when you left half your face up on Ajax and are now blind in one eye. Maybe he's not the best in the world, but he certainly ranks right up there!

  • @nynascargirl  he did a fine job..... this is one of my fav. performances hes ever done. Im a Indiana man and here hank is jesus in aviators

  • one person can't see

  • @TheMrleadguitar- To say he sucks is a bit harsh...hes not Chet Atkins or Jimmy Reed or Eric Clapton or Dickey Betts (but who is)? He may not be a master of one instrument but he can play banjo, piano, fiddle as well as some others. How many people can claim to be that proficient at that many different instruments? I bet you cant.

  • @TheMrleadguitar while I agree it is not true that he is better than Jimmy, Jimmy is widely regarded as one of the best guitarist of all time, to say hank Jr sucks at lead is really showing you to be just as wrong as him, it is obvious you do not like Hank, that is fine, it is your right to dislike whoever you want, making obvious false statements about someone who has proven himself to be an exceptionally talented artist just makes you look like you have no idea what you are talking about

  • his grandpappy, his dad, and his son are like the same. he looks so different!

  • That guitar playing makes Jimmy Hendrix look like a rookie!!!!!!

  • @easternwelder ok its good but thats a bit of an over statement

  • Does anyone know how to make mp3's outta youtube songs?

  • @HawgLegBrotherz

    listen to you tube.com

    just go to that its real staright forward bro

  • nice.

  • thanks a lot i've been looking for this exact clip for a while!

  • Man, I love it! If only Hank had done it like that on the record- he would have had a hit.

    (even if it was alot like Marshall Tucker's original).

    I've always liked the stuff Hank did in his Alabama days.
