Great CDJuly 13, 2010 C. Rine(Moundsville WV) Great CD. Just what my Dad wanted.
If you like old country music you will love this CD.
GreatApril 25, 2010 B. E. Moore(Charles Town, WV USA) This is a GREAT album. I recommend Hank III to anyone who loves the originial HANK WILLIAMS. This kid is phenominal. He sounds like his grandfather; however, he has his own style with country music.
Buy this oneMarch 25, 2010 A. Molica(Michigan) Hank 111 Better album. the others are worth owning but this is his best hands down.
The Beginning of Something AmazingMay 18, 2009 C. M. Parr(Kansas City, MO) Although only two songs on this album were written by Hank, this CD is absolutely amazing. If you listen to Hank III, you are probably more familar with the dirty, gritty, metal-inspired country that he plays. But this album is straight up county. The GOOD kind. You've got legendary country songs like Cocaine Blues and 87 Southbound, all that Hank does flawlessly. This album is one of my favorites of all time. Give it and all of Hank's work a listen, you'll be surprised.
Good music really IS in his blood...January 22, 2009 William E. Adams(Midland, Texas USA) Hard to believe that Hank III released this debut CD TEN years ago. Harder to believe that he has not made a bigger splash in the commercial country/rock music business than he has. While none of the 13 songs on here has the staying power of his father's rowdy hits or his grandfather's broken-hearted ballads, Hank III demonstrates that he is a class performer, with good instincts for picking material. Young Hank only contributed to the writing of four of these tracks, but all are interesting enough to reward frequently repeated play. This is my first purchase of a Hank III solo disc, but I also greatly enjoy the collaboration "Three Hanks" which features his dad, Hank Jr. and via the wonders of technology, Hank Sr. doing a bunch of grandpa's lesser-known songs, and doing them very well. I can't predict Hank III's recording and performing future, but if he does not achieve a long and prosperous career, I would be quite surprised.
