5.0 out of 5 stars Honky Tonkin' w/ Hank the 3rd, March 18, 2000

I admit not being a fan of country music at..that is " the modern so called country music"...I still enjoy playing the classics time to time Cash/Waylon,Hank Jr/Hank Sr./Jones,etc,,etc,,..but in past 5 years or more I got fed up and disgusted by the sound I heard from airwaves and the sound of these new "pop-rock-hollywood artists". The only recent artists I do buy is Steve Earle and Dwight Yoakam when they have a new release out. I was in Target shopping last week..and I saw a video from Hank III on the screen. I immediately gave the screen my full attention and was knocked out by the song. Not to mention his stark resemblence to Hank Sr. in look and voice.. I wondered who IS this "Hank III"? ..some wannabe using the name? ...I did some research on the net..and found out he is the grandson of Hank Sr. and son of Hank Jr.! ...aso saw that he is playing a concert nearby in June. Ive since purchased the CD..and I wont get in to reviewing each song...but got to say...its such a welcome of fresh air! ..Excellent CD of what were missing in country music today! Hope to hear more from this artist in future.

5.0 out of 5 stars the album i've been waiting for, March 28, 2005

This album is the epitome of honkytonk country. I have been waiting damn near all my life for this album. Many have tried but none have come this close to the real thing. I can listen to this for days and not get tired of it. It may not be for everyone but this is as good as it gets for the genre. His father may have left a few things to be desired but Hank III picks up right where his grandfather left off and brings a modern edge to this music. If I could rate this as six stars I would. A classic in music almost forgotten.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Hank III" says it all, November 25, 2001

BEWARE!!! One listen to this album will make you want to toss out all those pathetic "country" Shania and Faith albums. This is the real thing here...the bars, the brawls, the beer (with a tear in it to boot). And whether he's really lived it or not, Hank makes you believe he has. Exactly what makes a "real" country album real.
