Possibly one of the most under rated outlaw country singers but gotta love David Allen Coe.
Loved the look on your face when he sang "The whole world called me Hank."
I figured that out when I heard him say drifter Hank's band was called the drifting cowboys
There were several clues. Montgomery is always connected to Hank. Antique Cadillac, Dressed like 1950’s,
My favorite song of David Allen Coe. He is an Awesome song writer, wrote Tennessee Whiskey.
Dean Dillon wrote Tennessee Whiskey.
@@sylviafoster9093 Dean Dillon and Linda Hargrove
Hank was a pioneer, an original. His career gave many future artists a ride.
I think most people in Nashville knew the song was about "Hank" as soon as the steel guitar played the "Derryl Derryl" . Great tribute to Hank, Don Helms, and the Drifting Cowboys.
Love this song. It's actually the ghost of Hank Sr giving him the ride. First time i heard it that revelation was like a smack in the face.
Congratulations your probably the only youtuber that said Hanks music is like yoga
@Colton Michael LOL! I don’t even remember saying that, but it’s something I would say in a certain context, so now I have to go back and re-watch the reaction so I know what I said. Ha!
Lawrence Welk??? LOL! That's the great Ralph Emery. He had a wonderful show called Nashville Now. He is to country music to what Dick Clark was to Rock n Roll. Thanks for keeping the legends alive! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Love DAC's voice and seeing your first experience of The Ride was pure joy!
I loved your surprised reaction. I remember feeling that way the first time I heard that song back in the 80's. To be honest, it still gives me chills when he sings the line, 'the whole world called me Hank'.
@Matthew Lee Thanks for sharing those thoughts, as I imagine most of us had the same reaction when he dropped that line. Still shocks me to think about it. And welcome aboard the channel!!
Me too
Riding with the ghost of Hank Williams. First hint: "Now he was dressed like 1950, half drunk and hollow-eyed". Then: "Then I noticed the stranger was Ghost-white pale when he asked me for a light And I knew there was something strange about this ride". The Hank David sounds like is Jr. Sr. had a higher pitched twang kind of tone to his voice.
"You Never Even Called Me By My Name" was a commercial success for David and a barroom sing along, but I think I like "Willie, Waylan, and Me" as much as it and/or "The Ride". David was capable of writing both touching and outrageous lyrics. The latter probably hurt his acceptance by "the industry". He refused to fit in and yet resented not being accepted.
2nd hint: " Drifter".
it's a small thing but I LOVE that you actually understood that it was Hank Williams Sr driving the car
surprisingly not everyone makes that connection
Your reaction was priceless! I love this song!
@Judy Jones Thank you!! I couldn't believe it when he said Hank's name. Unbelievable twist that scrambled my brain, in a good way!!
Great song, great score! Any lower and I would have had to seriously question your sense! :-) Mr. Coe is truly a living legend...born in the 30's...he's seen it, he's lived, and he sang about it. Being a true outlaw...he does have some critics. Yeah, some of his stuff could be called sexist, racist, homophobic, crude...do I need to keep going? Bottom line, he makes damn good music and makes no apologies for how he does it!
"Could be" is coming up short. Coe is a racist, mysongistic, homophobic, shitbag of a human, but "The Ride" is one of the best songs ever written
Makes me think of " Phantom 309" by Red Sovine..
Highly recommend David Allen Coe’s - You don’t have to call me by my name! OMG EPIC! One of the best story’s in Country Music.
Trish...from that recommendation, I think we may be soulmates! :-)
Yes. Have to play that.
I was born in '83 and grew up listening to all these great legends. Love the way I was raised over the fast city life.
This was my favorite reaction ever! He also gave credit in the song to the other greats of the time. Hank Sr. though! I had the same reaction. I knew what was coming but your reaction was priceless!
The reason Hank turned the car around “just outside of Nashville” is because he was fired by the Grand Ole Opry back in the day and resented the industry. His drinking and prescription drug use caused him to miss too many shows. He ended up playing on the Louisiana Hayride (lesser known Opry competitor) in his final years.
Hank wasn’t driving a car that turned around. It’s a made up story, just like your made up BS you pulled out your ass
Which is also why Hank Jr has staunchly refused to play the Opry.
and 60y later they still living of his name
I live 10 miles north of Montgomery Alabama. Every time I hear this song it gives me chills. I seen him in person about 10 years ago. His health was not great but that song still brought the house down. Hank Williams Sr. is an icon here in Alabama. Georgiana ,Alabama still celebrates him every year . From time to time has some really good artists.
Awesome song, awesome delivery by Coe. The song haunts me.
HEY DON- The gentleman that you asked about is Mr. Ralph Emery. He hosted a show named NASHVILLE NOW. IT was on the Nashville Network pre CMT. He is a huge country music historian & former disk jockey. I LOVED the look on your face when you realized David was talking about Hank. God BLESS
I love this song
I think this song is one of the best ever written. I mean to think that Hank William's ghost is traveling the highway taking the next generation to Nashville is haunting and true, because he has influenced every country artist, but he can only take you there, the rest you have to do on your own, amazing!!
Yeah, not just country, though. He influenced singers and songwriters across all genres.
Not only that he was one of the first to make meaningful lyrics to music before his era music was just background music especially in country music only like 1 or 2 singers had experimented with that kind of sad meaningful music and then all of a sudden lovesick blues comes along and then all of a sudden everyone is listening to that kind of music
Great video! DA Coe is badass! Love that song!
David Allen Coe is one of the best writers/singers. Your reaction to this is one of the best I’ve seen in your videos
Like that hank ghost vibe, check out shooter Jennings “gone to Carolina”
Yeah, country songs are sometimes pretty clear and sometimes they are so subtle that you have to really LISTEN to get the story because if you miss the story you miss the song. Period. "You don't have to call me Mister, Mister. The whole world calls me Hank." Iconic lines. Loved your reaction to this.
Hey Don! Awesome review! Talk about outlaw. This guy is hardcore. He spent 20 years in prison.
Best reaction ever! Most don't understand.
Great one Don! Hope you get the meaning. It’s legendary. Now, you must do Midnight in Montgomery - Alan Jackson...also about Hank Sr’s last ride.
Yes!! Midnight in Montgomery by Alan Jackson is awesome!
That song still gives me chills.
classic. and classic reaction. Well done sir.
I just seen him play live in Florida last week! Love DAC
Your reaction is priceless!!
@Jesse Duke LOL---thanks!!
The man in the beginning was legendary dj and TV personality Ralph Emery. Was great seeing the light bulb go off in you're head when you realized it was about Old Hank
Yes that was Hank senior's ghost driving an antique Cadillac and gave him a ride short of Nashville
I get good bumps everytime I hear this song
2nd time i watched this reaction.-8/16/21.soo many to pick from,ive seen some stories about his life…Wow!- i cant mention all of them, but quite a life,prison ,one tuff man! And a hell of a singer/songwriter. Again.love your reaction to this-you got it!👍👍🤓🤓 talent! Thats why i love the old stuff. Story telling
His greatest hits is pure gold. 17 songs from the 70's and 80's and not a bad song on it. He is out of Dallas, Tx and was Red Dirt before Red Dirt. I saw him live in 79. For a surprise try Wille, Waylon and Me.
All truth! :-)
Love David Allen Coe. He is amazing!!!
You're recation was worth watching love it
I've always liked this song this was my first song by coe and ever since enjoyed his music
this song will give anybody goosebumps
you will love his mimicking of country greats in his song "you never even called me by my name"
No way! I was thinking about recommending this song to you but looks like someone already beat me to it! Great song and a great reaction. Keep up the good work, Don!
Thank you for what you do brother honestly I'm glad you've got to react to and enjoy so many of the songs that have helped me through life and it makes me happy to see that you appreciate and enjoy that music keep doing what you do buddy
When Stonewall Jackson came to Nashville he was signed his first day there. He had to borrow a guitar to play the Grand Ol Opry his first night there
LOL at your face when you heard Hank's name! Love it!
Hey don great reaction! That put a huge smile on my face when he said hank. Keep up the great work , I cherish all of your videos.
Watching your reaction is the point lol i was waiting for your face the whole time🤣
@Aj Hayes You know me too well, my friend!!
A very good song!
😆 Loved your reaction too!!!!
@Eric Hamby Thanks!! And welcome aboard!!
20 year overnight sensation
Loved the face! Legit reaction.
@Kresha Spence LOL!!! Thank you. :-)
This channel is one of the best on TH-cam I watched a lot of reaction channels have a few favorites but this is by far and away my favorite it’s my favorite genre and it’s nice to see a fellow country music lover breakdown some awesome songs
@Levi Wheeler Yay, what a compliment---thanks for making me smile like that!! I'm glad you're here and that you like the genre as much as I've come to love it in the last year. Such a wonderful journey. :-)
This is a great country song, with the outlaw country artist.
David Alan Coe is a great artist in country music. I got to see live in Nashville back in the 70:s at The Blue Orchid lounge.
Love this song,Don.
Love your reaction as usual.
If you get time,could you react to a Dan Seals song that he wrote;
"All That Glitters Is Not Gold"
I really love his song;
"God Must Be A Cowboy At Heart"
This was his first # 1 hit record.
Another great David Allen Coe is YOU NEVER EVEN CALLED MR BY MY NAME. Very fun song.
One of my favorite singers and songs
You should react to if that aint county by david allen coe
Can't react to that one because of one line, even though it's an amazingly good song with no negative intention in the line
I had the exact same reaction the first time I heard that.
One of the GREAT Country Outlaws (not the corporate country of today). This stuff has "roots" and "grit".
One of my favorite DAC songs.
Great old song by a crazy Ohio guy! He used to play a club in Columbus frequently and would always pack it with a rowdy crowd and put on a great show.
I loved your reaction when you found out it was Hank Sr. But if you noticed the radio was playing nothing but 50's solid gold which is kinda a clue and the driver was ghost like
So thrilled you found DAC. Tread lightly though, he is so underrated, and overlooked thanks to a very colorful xrated album. Still love him though
Thanks for the heads up--and the warning!! I had no clue he did that kinda stuff.
@@RockN2Country well if youve got sense of humor and dirty head....... but regardless of what it appears, hes not racist. He had a black bandmembers backing him up and singing along. But yea there's some raunchy stuff out there lmao
that steel gives me shivers
The song is about a supernatural encounter with the GHOST of hank William's sr
@Psyco juggalo Reacts Thanks for the info, and welcome to the fam!!
So love this song my absolute favorite
David Allan coe is and will always be thee greatest singer song writer to ever walk the face of the earth period .
Please do some more David Allen Coe...The Perfect Country Western Song, Would You Lay With Me, Divers Do It Deeper
I love it,,,your reaction was spot on..great song
Much love, DAC!!
DAC is one of my favorite country artists ever. Hank is the ghost driving ,) I'm sure you figured that out.
My favorite song
Hank Sr. is buried in Montgomery, Alabama. That is why "The Ride" started at Montgomery.
Drifter can u make folks cry when you play and sing? Have you paid your dues, can you moan the blues, can u bend them guitar strings? Hank Williams died in the back of a Cadillac in Oak Hill West Virginia
You should react to his "You Never Even Call Me By My Name".
The Ghost Ride, love it.
Fighting side of me by Merle Haggard
Loved the Reaction brother 👊 that was great lol. Get some more Hank Williams Jr reactions come an go blues I recommend it's allman brothers cover by him you'll love it
@Sean Mckenzie The Allman Bros. rendition is awesome---I've loved that song for 35 years.
Why is no one doing perfect country and western song it's the best for a reaction video because of the twist ending!!!!
Just came across this reaction. If you want another ‘Just call me Hank’ moment, you REALLY need to react to Eric Church’s song ‘Lynyrd Skynyd Jones’!
DAC is a great writer has had many songs on the charts with other artists. I think it is shame the way that the industry refuses to acknowledge him. Even if he has been a black sheep
in the song hank sr. was a ghost b/c he had died long before david allen coe was even close to being a strugglin artist... that is just part of the song... he gets a ride from the haunted figure that does not or cannot go to nashville... its like he was a guide.... like the guide in dante's inferno...
Hank Williams is the first outlaw. So many artist were inspired by him. Country and Rick artist alike.
Great reaction. Check out his song
That ol Pan Head of mine....
Thanks for reaching to true music
I'm loving the reaction and facial expressions!! 😂😂😂 This and "Midnight In Montgomery" by Allan Jackson always gives me chills, esp when you hear them sang at Hank's grave! Great review, Don 👍 ❤️🐘❤️
@Sabrina King Thank you, my dear!! Yeah, I was caught off guard on that one, and my face tends to show what I'm thinking. It's gotten me into trouble a time or two... ;-)
@@RockN2Country I'm the same way lol. If my mouth don't say it, my facial expressions definitely will 😂
Hank Jr also recorded this song a few years later. . both did a great job of this song. Hard to think who did a better job of this song. Even though David Allan COE wrote it. .and sang it first. .
I loved the way his jaw dropped
@Matthew Dean I remember the moment well. Ha!! Welcome to the channel, BTW!
@@RockN2Country i have a request can you react to big bad jhon by Jimmy Dean
My take on it was the long ride to Nashville was made easier by Hank driving him. Same was as how Hank and his influence made the music so popular that it allowed Nashville to flourish
Another legendary song!!
If you love story songs from country music, then here are a few you need to listen to.
Country Bumpkin by Jack Greene
Saginaw, Michigan by Lefty Frizzell
BJ the DJ by Stonewall Jackson
Lady Down On Love by Alabama
In Pictures by Alabama
LMAO it's Ralph Emery.... Famous country DJ and TV host
@Christopher Pack I'm still learning! And the cool thing is when I turn some of the folks who follow the channel onto a song or artist that they've never heard before, since most of the folks who follow the channel have been longtime country fans.
AGAIN..This is why i keep commin bk to ur chann.you know what ur talking about,you have fun doing it. This..is,to me,country! I know. I know there is new stuff out there. I just dont care for Most Of it.yes,i like some..but… sorry.raised on the old stuff, like this. Hag,cash,marty robbins , etc. Nice reaction .ltr7/30/21
@Dan Williams Thank you for the kind words-you humble me greatly. You are right that I do have fun with it, as the challenge is a big part of it for me. :-)
Outlaw brother
i do believe that’s Mr Reese Wynans (Stevie Ray Vaughn and double trouble) on keys... he’s played for many of greats... Btw... Though i don’t see him on this live set, Mr Warren Haynes (gov mule/Allman bro band!) was his touring lead guitarist... Feel free to correct me if i’m wrong on reese waynans....
@We all Seek the same Welcome to the channel. Given your apparent taste in music, I think you're gonna like tomorrow's reaction. You'll see. :-)
Lol great reaction! I think you did Midnight in Montgomery by Alan Jackson....also on ref. to Hank Sr.
I'm still lol'ing to your shocked look lol
It was hank's ghost. Midnight in Montgomery by Alan Jackson is also a good one.
Good songs are movies in your mind.
Gotta love that pedal steel.
I don't understand how you've never heard this classic
@Johnny Fox Totally legit question. I didn’t grow up on country, as I didn’t get into it until about ten years ago. But I was into Nashville country. When I was taking care of my mom in Florida in her house after she got sick. I had time on my hands and decided to start a TH-cam channel doing Nashville-country reactions. Soon after starting the channel folks realized I liked lyrics and they started suggesting traditional or red dirt country. So artists like Coe were new to me because traditional didn’t make its way into my life until about three years ago. My reaction to The Ride was soon after that. So there’s the story.
