    I’ve been a fan of Senior, Junior and the 3rd. They are all different in their own unique music. I don’t live too far from Montgomery, Alabama where Hank Sr is buried. It’s on my bucket list to go see his grave one day. I remember hearing about Bocephus having a bad accident when I was still young. Oh wow I didn’t know there was a Hank 4. Thank you for another great video Tim and I hope you and your subscribers enjoy the rest of your Christmas!!

      Keep an eye out for Hank four. That's the son of Hank 3. You can look him up on here. He is to Junior what three is to senior. The look and voice are uncanny. He didn't want to do it when he was younger but now he is starting to do it. Guitar skills are basic but all that voice. I'm going to keep my eyes and ears out for him.

Coming from a 14-15 yr old he showed his mother the lyrics and she cried. Where does that come from ? How does a teenager write a song so powerful as that ?

    We (family and friends) celebrated the Bicentennial (July 4, 1976) at a bar in Columbia Falls, MT. Hank Williams Jr and his band performed that night. He was great, but he never once spoke. He sang but never said anything the entire night. This wasn’t too long after his fall so we thought that was probably the reason for it. There weren’t many people there but he just sang without any interaction with anyone between songs or during breaks.

After. the all day fishing trip we went on a tear that night with his then manager J.R. Smith & his date. We went to The Shrimp Boat for dinner then on to The Gold Nugget a country & western night club. We partied like there was no tomorrow. Everytime he was in the city where I worked we would get together & have a really good time. We now have houses a short distance from each other in Apalachicola, FL. HWJR is a amazing man & one of the best Country Entertainer's in the business.

    Yes, I Think That The World it's Self Knew About Hank Williams JR, And His Accidental Fall On A Jacks Mountian In A Shorts Period Of Time..Hank Was Well Taken Care Of Buy One Of His Closet Friends, And A little Boy Until Help Could Get There Where The Accident Happened. Thanks Good Hank JR. U Are Very Lucky To Still Be With Us Today...Thank God. We All Love U Hank... Steve Blankenship.

    I heard that as he was laying on the ground clinging to life by a thread he said his father appeared beside. He said "Bocephus it ain't your time yet. You still have a star to become
    It won't be easy but you will be a bigger star than me" 46 years later Jank Jr isn't a bigger legend than his father,but as big a legend. Maybe one day Hank Jrs children will be as big of a star as their father and grandfather

    A basic interview with Hank Jr. "my daddy, my daddy. I fell off a mountain, a country boy can survive" . Been hearing the same interview for 50yrs, my entire life , that's all he can talk about. 🙄

    I have read his autobiography Living Proof his autobiography is better than the movie Living Proof Hank Williams Junior is what country music should be today Today's country music is more like rock and roll I will take traditional country music over today's country music I guess that makes me an old dinosaur

    I have been following Hank Williams Seniors family since I was a kid growing up I'm 52 years old and I'm still listening to Hank Williams family and I'm just glad that his wife and his family has shared everything about them including Hank III I love Hank Williams family and I'm going to continue to listen to Hank Williams and his family and I hope they live for a long time because you don't hear that good old country twang anymore and they keep it real I appreciate everything they have done and still doing God bless you and keep doing well I hope and keep your health and like I said before I wish I could drink some gym apple with the family sometime

    The song, “The Living Proof” is a good song by Hank Jr. Its about people comparing him to his daddy.

    They made a movie I believe back in the early 90's about Hank Williams Jr's life. It covered the accident he had. It was a pretty good movie.

    I had no idea about his accident 1975 - probably because I wasn’t worn until 1977.
