When I was 6 years old, I WATCHED HANK Perform Live right here in Westerly RI. 2 minute walk from were I Live now. Went with my grandfather and uncles. On my uncle tombstone, is a tribute to Hank. He played Hank music his whole life, just about every day.
Country Music's tragic King . Sometimes I think Hank would of been happier playing to a circle of friends at the local bar then at the concert halls . Fame sometimes isn't all it's cracked up to be and Hank's life is proof of that tragic result .
100% correct. I will correct your comment, I believe it is the best movie about Hank not one of the best. Beautifully taken from stage to movie and is a Canadian production.
I seen it I hated that movie I liked I walk the line better I remember watching it and I thought it was all ball and I didn't see baby Hank Jr in that movie which I thought was another disappointment
@@joeyzeigler4713 I can see why you "hated" Hank Williams - The Show He Never Gave" and preferred "I Walk The Line", which is an ok movie. Though I don't know why you expected Hank jr. to be in a Johnny Cash movie. I would recommend *Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison:* Get the real Johnny Cash. I've seen a few Hank Sr Films like "I Saw The light" which was at best average. I did not like Tom Huddleston in the movie. It just was not right for me. I've seen him other movies and is a good actor. Then there was the oldie "Your Cheatin Heart" with George Hamilton, still at best and "ok" movie. The Show He Never Gave was not biographical, just a what if - what if Hank played one night in the "sticks". There was humor, great singing and the ending was dark and haunting with "These men with Broken Hearts". Watch czcams.com/video/LYU01RxUbbU/video.html
Absolutely! It captures the essence of Hank performing on the road. I remain haunted by the Red Foley song “Midnight.” Hank’s teenage driver said it was on the radio as the two of them were en route on the road to Hank’s next show the night he died in the back seat.
How many modern country fans listen to Hank? It’s a shame, it’s all but dead save for the little groups of folks who have kept the good old stuff around.
MR Williams was born with spinal bifida,a very serious spinal deformity.They didn't have the medical knowlege back then too properly treat this condition.The only thing they knew was "pain killers'and Hank got hooked on them.Hank had a troubled life.he left the biggest footprint in country music history.Next witness.
HANK WILLIAMS SR WAS AND STILL IS THE GREATEST COUNTRY MUSIC SINGER AND SONGWRITER THAT EVER LIVED. MY GRANDPA WAS WORKING IN DETROIT MICHIGAN AND HIM AND HIS OLDEST SISTER AND HER HUSBAND WENT AND SEEN HANK SR, PLAY THIS WAS IN THE LATE 1940S OR EARLY 1950S MY GRANDPA SAID HE TALKED TO HANK BEFORE HE HAD TO GO ON STAGE HE SAID THEY WERE PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE CRYING WHEN HANK SUNG THEM SAD SONG'S HE ALSO SAID THAT HANK KEPT GETTING ENCORES AND THAT THEY WOULDN'T LET OFF THE STAGE. I LIVE IN EAST TENNESSEE AND I HELPED GET PEOPLE SIGN A PETITION TO GET A POSTAL STAMP WITH HANK'S PICTURE ON IT, AND WE GOT IT THANK GOD.
Too bad Oak Hill, W.V. was too dumb to capitalize on this unique event.Could have made a huge music festival,museum etc... had several opportunities.Different people tried,some had collections of memorabilia, all was let slip through Oak Hills fingers....
Ha ha what a positively idiotic thing to say. OK smart guy, so what would you call this festival, museum, etc.? Maybe the Festival of the Place Where Hank Williams Rode Dead into Town? Or The Museum of the Arriving Dead Hank Williams? Or Dead Hank Williams Day? The idiocy of some people 😆
70 years since he died, but his music lives on.
70 Years?????

Once Hank gets ahold of you, he never lets go.
So did my dad. Born in ‘48, I grew up with Hank in my life.
Hank died the year I was born...My Dad loved Hank's songs...Now, my sons do too... I guess you could say it "runs in the family".
family tradition. im just discovering hank3 and i cant get enough
@@tested123 is hank the third good?

Watch the movie "Hank Williams - The Show He Never Gave"...it's one of the best movies about old Hank ever made.
Yes it is . The show he never gave was great. . I Saw The Light movie was awful. It was so boring and a bad tribute

"If your big star bound, let me tell you it's a dangerous ride"..... The Shakespeare of Country Music. Rest in Peace Mr Williams.
January 1st, 2023 will mark 70 years that this country music legend passed away under mysterious circumstances. 😭😭😭😭😭😭. RIP Hank Williams.
Wasnt mysterious, hank was in severe pain and got addicted to many substances resulting in a heart attack.

The night Hank died was the night my dad almost died my dad could not believe Hank was gone.
Sick in the head sounds like lol.
listening to the spirituals all the way here in India. 🙏
WITHOUT GTA SAN ANDREAS I'LL NEVER KNOW HANK WILLIAMS
whaatcha got cookin
Hank died on New Year’s Day
The ones that called him crazy, are still riding on his name.
let me tell you about lovesick, how miss audrey loved that man
Too bad the movie ended up as one of the worst movies ever made .
Good acting poorly put together, I doubt Williams life was actually that shady too
The legend lives on!!
😢🎵🎙🙏
He always said he'd never get out of this world alive...
Something says he got beat up at the last bar
The greatest country singer song writer on the planet
HANK WILLIAMS, ELVIS, WHITNEY HOUSTON, BOB DYLAN, ARETHA..............NO ONE WILL MATCH THEM AND MORE
What's with rumor he was killed in Beckley west Virginia got beat up.
Long live Hank Williams Rip
He's dead.
He died young ):

Or The Museum of the Arriving Dead Hank Williams?
Or Dead Hank Williams Day?
The idiocy of some people 😆
What distresses me is that Audreys' son is portraying himself as Hank Williams II
Might have been a good idea to get a Southern American for this role. *shrugs*
You dont no shit...
Loki was a bad Hank.
why is it we glorify the death of a heroin addict ???
