“Lord, honey, you’re a ghost,” Minnie Pearl allegedly told Hank Williams III after their first meeting. It’s a natural reaction to the skinny singer with the sunken cheekbones and, especially, the pinched nasal vocal–so reminiscent of his famous grandfather’s catch-and-moan delivery. Hank III’s debut, Risin’ Outlaw, made that clear, but now his follow-up carves it on the wall, vocally, melodically, and lyrically.

Pop Country Sucks!
If you are sick and tired of the rubbish coming out of Trashville these days then give this a spin. If you’re a fan of Hank Williams Sr. this kid is right up your alley.

Reincarnation
A co-worker lent me this album because I’ve been curious. I swear, if reincarnation exists, Hank Williams Sr. is alive and kicking you know what in Hank III.
I will keep this short and sweet. If you want your country music like it was in the good old days, then buy this album. Hank III channels his grandfather. Probably the finest country album I have heard in ages. I’ll say it again, BUY THIS ALBUM!

Back from the dead Outlaw country LIVES
Second go ’round from Sr’s ghost? No this is pure III. This boy ain’t his daddy fer sure. Everything you thought you knew about Hank Williams gets thrown out the window and reborn…
How anyone who listens to current country music radio can call themselves a fan of country music is beyond me. This is the real thing and you will never hear this on mainstream radio. Why? Because it’s too country for country radio which pretty much is just crappy light rock with fiddles and steel guitars these days. Hank III is the reason I don’t discredit the genre altogether. This CD is awesome, that’s all you need to know.

My sister bought me this CD. She’s a good sister.
I’m not a big fan of country music, but Hank III kind of transcends all that. My sister sent me this CD and told me to shut up and just listen to it.

Honest Country!!!!
This was the first album I bought of Hank 3, which I was a little shady but I grew up with his father’s music so I thought I would give it a shot.

Need to review C&W
I want to be clear that I absolutely hate country music. I am one of those that likes Johnny Cash, Roger Miller, Patsy Cline, and of course Hank Williams Sr.

I loved the songs on this CD!
I ran across Hank III by accident looking for a Hank Williams, Jr. movie. I bought this CD since I’me a big fan of Hank Sr and Hank Jr, and wow - I really like a lot of the songs…
