Hank Jr. Fans

[Vol Mania 21]

What are your favorite Hank Jr. songs? Very random I know but I was listening to him on my ipod at work.

My top 3 in no order

Dinosaur
All my friends have settled down
House of the Rising Sun(I know it's his dad's song but when he sings it, its unbelieveable)

I think that the writer of House Of The Rising Sun is unknown, I am pretty sure that Sr. wasn't the original writer. None the less a good song. Not a big Jr. fan but Hank III is awesome. More like his grandfather and if he keeps up his "family tradition" he will live about as long as Sr.

:rock: Agreed

Not a III fan. his songs are weird or the few i heard

 

[bigdaddy]

They are different, that is for sure. Hank III is not for everybody. Much different than Jr., that is for sure.

:rock: Agreed

Pretty much the entire Going to Hell album sums up his life.

I googled Hank III and found out he sings all the old stuff, whatever was on myspace had to be wrong. it was some punk stuff. i like his old stuff, i think he sounds like his granddad

 

[bigdaddy]

He mixes it up and some of it is fast as hell and rowdy/punk-a-billy stuff. Some of it is scary how much he sounds like Sr.

I used to work security for concerts here in Birminghell and saw first hand the a-hole he is when the camera is not on him. Lost all respect for him. I got to meet all the big names in the early to mid nineties but I regretted having to work for him.

 

[Vol Mania 21]

what exactly did he do to be such an a hole?

Hank III is the man. I don't like Hank Jr.'s music either. But III's stuff both in country and in punk-a-billy is top notch.
