Seen a Hank Jr. show lately? Let's see, if you're talkin' about the piano, he always has a couple of tunes there (Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On, Gonna Go Huntin' Tonight), so yep, that's out. Or the emotion? Listen close; when he plays "Blues Man" or "Old Habits," it makes the hair stand up on my arm. And finally...Hank IS an outlaw. It's not schtick with him. It's his personality.
So, not trying to insult you. Just saying you should catch a Hank show, if at all possible.
I think- I THINK- that this was from the Hank Sr. 60th birthday tribute. I think. I was four in 1983, but I remember the backdrop, and how novel it was to see Hank Jr. on TV in New York.
While in the Marines in a bunker pulling guard 66/67 the com shack used to play his Daddy's albums over the field phone. Is it any wonder, why I drank and carried on so?

It's a shame that he won't allow himself to play like this now, and that he's still stuck in that Seventies rebel outlaw schtick.

i've seen hank a dozen times & he always plays some old songs.......along with his rock n roll outlaw style stuff as well.

I promise you, I'll make a point of trying to catch him the next time he plays in or around Philly or Pittsburgh.
Thanks for the heads up on that. I never meant to imply that I didn't respect him as an artist.

This is a great soul song. Hank jr is a legend. Anyone that thinks otherwise dont feel real soul music.
