1.0 out of 5 stars Sanitized Version of The Real Record, July 1, 2006

Before purchasing this record, please be aware that this is a "sanitized" version of the real record. For purists, this would be akin to throwing a loincloth over Michelangelo's David. Those whose delicate sensibilities would be offended by the real record wouldn't like Hank anyway. So why bother? Pass on this adulturated disc and get the real one. Five stars for Hank, only one for the sanitized version for adulturating the original masterpiece.

1.0 out of 5 stars I don't think ole Hank done it this way, December 21, 2011

This is a watered down version of the original in your face, unapologetic, true outlaw country that Hank 3 fans have come to expect. This is a lame attempt at Curb to continue to destroy their artists in the name of the all mighty dollar. I can only believe that they are releasing the ammended version before the holidays to doup unexpecting customers. If you want the real version, do NOT purchase this CD. Hank is true, raw grit. The CD was released the way he intended for it. When coroporations re-release ammended versions, please know that it is not the artists vision. There are currently 4 CDs on Hank3.com that are for sale. All are very different styles and, all are what he visioned. He recorded, mixed and relesed the 4 CDs on his site without interference from corporate music. In my book, Hank 3 is real. He is as real as they come. I don't like my music washed down by an office exec telling me what they think is better. Go get after Hank3.com. Go get the original version of this release. I don't think ole Hank done it this way!!

1.0 out of 5 stars pass on this...look for the original version!!!, December 21, 2011

This is Curb records pathetic attempt to get more $$ from one of the artists who have left their label. It is a stripped down version of what is an otherwise INCREDIBLE album. It was released several years ago to rave reviews, and has been one of Hank III's strongest albums to date. It's rowdy, it's raw, and it is most definitely IN YOUR FACE!! If you don't get easily offended, and would like to hear the ORIGINAL version of this album, please purchase the UNEDITED VERSION. And check out hank3.com for all of his new music that was released on his OWN label. I am not trying to slam Amazon. They have nothing to do with the release of this "sugar coated" version of Straight to Hell. 5 stars for Hank 3...1 star for this ploy from Curb Records to get MORE $$ from someone with whom they had a shaky business relationship. Shame on you, Curb records...SHAME ON YOU!!!
