Watch Hank Williams Jr. on Kix TV. We take a look back at this 2015 visit with Bocephus in which he talks in depth about his passions - music and hunting.
Hall of Fame should close its doors for shunning Hank Jr. The man wrote the most iconic country songs of the 70s and 80s, and then sung them better than anyone else could have even tried.
@@JennaP363 He honestly is. I like me some George Strait just as much as anyone else, but without an entire staff of writers, where would have his career went? The greats in my mind ALL wrote their own songs, played the guitar, and sang. Hank Jr has more than carved out his own legacy, he refused to stay in his daddy's shadow, and embraced Sr's legacy with love and respect all at the same time. He's not putting out the hits like he did 30 years ago, but to think he's been doing this for over 60 years now is astonishing.
@@charlesdjones1 Have known Jr. since the mid 70's. He has remained true to himself. Not one to put on pretenses what you see is what you get. He especially proved that when he wrote and recorded " Keep The Change". How cool was that? If you know Jr. like I have you have got to appreciate that. He is and always will be an icon.
@@JennaP363 that's cool that you know Jr as a personal friend. I lived in Clarksville for about 7 years while stationed at Campbell, and when we weren't over there I had my tail up at LBL, camping and fishing. I was told by some campers that Hank spent a considerable amount of time at Land Between the Lakes and at one time owned a lake house there, idk. Either way, I admire his extensive collection of Civil War memorabilia and knowledge.
Love a relaxed setting for an interview like this. Hank is never one much for interviews but I feel something like this he doesn't seem to mind. Love it! Thanks Kix
Best Entertainer over the many years. Sure am missin' Hillsboro village, Bluebird - Nashville in general. GLAD i lived in music row B4 country turned weird.
I don't know if Hank knew the repercussions that he would face or if he even cared , but there is no denying that his words turned out to be prophetic . I wish more performers had the guts to say it !
@Luke Bryan what in the hell? Get outta here. This aint for Luke Bryan, let alone a fake scammer. Get the hell out with your fake crap before we kick yer ass.
I’ve been watching him since 1986, everything, and not once have I seen an interview without him mentioning falling off the mountain and his dad. Not. Once.
Wish he come fishing with me or me fishing with him or hunting an hang out no music just drinks An doing things he loves an I love to do too I’m 34 an I’d still dream of this day it may never happen cause I ain’t rich I’m just good ole boy I’d give anything to spend weeks vacation just hanging out fishing and seeing his war museum in his house 😍😍😍😍
I sit around here wonderin'/what you're doing-in your life. Never had a song deal, but I can write 'em. My name is BigAce, and my pen is my axe-Go Hankering
All depends on the day with Hank. He was just always full of himself and was a jerk. He even mentioned the local paint store in his song I’ve got rights. Hank used to be drunk and high a lot, and when he was look out. When he’s sober he’s a cool dude but still has an ego.
It would be awfully tough not to be, if you were in his position. I mean really think about it. I know that in some spiritual sense, we are in some way, pretty much all equal. That said, let's be honest, he has lived the kind of life that most men can only dream of living. Hell, it could almost be contrived as putting on a bit, if Hank didn't act the way that he does. At the very least, he keeps it real. I ain't trying to justify if, just offering, what is likely, his point of view with it all. You can't truly judge it, unless you've actually lived it and there is not really all too many, who actually has.
I love hank jr and his music but he's not a funny guy and he so wants to be funny I know the ppl around him laugh at his humor but it just disastrous I wish he could still write like he did in the late 70s and 80s
I believe anybody who has lived through what he has and survived time after time and blessed with all the worldly riches probably knows more about Jesus than you. God is a personal journey so keep it that way
And landed on his FACE. He has worn a beard ever since because the reconstruction, as good as it was, still left him looking like a horror. The fall literally split his face and part of his skull in TWO. His brain was part way out of his head, which was why his friend with him tied his shirt around his head and face--to keep his brain from coming further out of his head. How he ever lived is a miracle. Even his surgeons and doctors said that in a news conference on TV. You'd be slurring, too.
He looks like he got off a jungle safari train. Lost respect for him when he sued his own half sister Jet, to keep her from her rightful share of Father's estate. He was four years old when his Dad died, and never really knew him. Hank Sr. signed papers before Jett was born that he wanted custody of her, and then she was sold out by the people who were supposed to look out for her after he died. Hank Jr. like Willie, realized that the outlaw train was the money making train and he got on it at the right time. Had a few good songs, but thats the extent of it. The third generation, maybe time for regular careers?
well we aren't in his shoes so we won't know the full situation completely. We don't even know these people yet we're judging them. You have no idea nor do I know what really goes on.
Imagine if hank and waylon had a podcast back in the day, the stories they could tell would have you laughing so hard it hurts
[O[o⁰
This is a man who has mastered the art of living. He does what he wants and says what he wants.
Yea , it helps when your fans agree with you and you several millions .
@@gus2600 Gus HWJR is a good friend. If he likes you he likes you. If not give it up he never will.
Hank Jr as much as his dad is a classic. He's been right in the middle of country music for longer than most country fans are old. Let him smoke,.
Hank Jr. is one of the very rare examples of the father being amazingly gifted and his son being at least his equal.
Equal and well beyond some.
Hank needs a solo podcast just telling stories of his life, I could listen to that old boy talk for days lol
Hall of Fame should close its doors for shunning Hank Jr. The man wrote the most iconic country songs of the 70s and 80s, and then sung them better than anyone else could have even tried.
Charles Jones aa
You got that right!!!! Hank Jr. is the best ever to write his own music & a truly genuine man.
@@JennaP363 He honestly is. I like me some George Strait just as much as anyone else, but without an entire staff of writers, where would have his career went?

Hank Jr. is definitely the number one country artist of this century... The Williams legacy goes on and on......
I think you’re referring to his father.
He is great... waylon is better

@Hank williams Jr You are a scammer Hank doesn't talk like that i reported you.
I just love how he put the things out that and I just love to hear him take and hear him sing
Hello Emily how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
Saw Hank this past winter in Alabama. Blew us away.
I wish I could talk to him. My dad sang with him back in the day. Wonder if he even remembers
If the world would listen to a man like Hank Williams Jr we'd be a lot better off go Hank
"Hoss, they're throwing babies in the air" Priceless!
Gary Rossington and Toy Caldwells pupil. That line was awesome
Toy is my favorite guitarist
Yes sir it was. Hank gives a great deal of credit to Ronnie Van Zant and GaryRossington!
@@bm8231 he was the best
I don't know if Hank knew the repercussions that he would face or if he even cared , but there is no denying that his words turned out to be prophetic . I wish more performers had the guts to say it !
I know many personal things about the man ..... he's a very good sequel.
I'm glad he and Sheldon aka Hank3 got choser later in life
Joshua Waltz Shelton***
I will be there if he ever plays again !! THATS FOR SURE ! ❤️❤️🖤🖤🎶🎶🎶 #hank3 #hellbetty
Hello Gina how are you doing hopefully you doing hopefully you are doing good??
So humble LOL!! Still love Bocephus
I love that Alabama brother
Nobody enjoys talking about hank jr more then hank jr
*BOCEPHUS IS STILL THE KING*
I Agree, To Be in his Shoes would be something else ! I’m sure it’s not Easy .
"Hoss they're throwin babies in the aie"...LMAO. Waylon had a way with words
HWJR is the most humble man alive!
Hank Jr is just interesting. I think his hobbies are as interesting as his music. Collecting civil war artifacts and cannons.
Wanna hear a great song maybe his best back in 82 he was spitting them out back then
Goggle Mr Weather Man Hank singing live. I think that's it 80s.
My grandpa drank with Willie back in the day too. Mezcal, strong stuff. Wonder if Willie remembers that too.
Hank 3 reminds more of hank Williams than JR does
Hank 3 reminds me of a non talented mule's ass.
#Love You #HankJr 💃💙🌹
@Luke Bryan what in the hell? Get outta here. This aint for Luke Bryan, let alone a fake scammer. Get the hell out with your fake crap before we kick yer ass.
❤nice picture

Merle was a holy man! You could feel his presence through the tv screen
Prison will do that to ya
@@brianhatch4691 He was there for such a short time.
@benjamin silver 3yrs ain't a short time
Yeah, he told lies with every breath. But, he was holy. C'mon man, everyone loved Merle, but he wasn't holy at all.
They are talking about Merle Kilgore … not Merle haggard … look him up he was hanks mgr for years …
Got Love Him!!!!!!
I wonder if Eric Church ever got that Bear?
Hank Williams jr one of the greatest icons to ever grace gods green earth
The man!!!!

Sure do love me some Bocephus ❤❤
That's a cool dude
Surprised Kix wasnt choking with all the cigar smoke lol
Hank Jr is the best ever
Williams is so full of humility. lol
I’ve been watching him since 1986, everything, and not once have I seen an interview without him mentioning falling off the mountain and his dad. Not. Once.

Hello Angela how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
I made a bet with myself Hank couldn’t go 90 seconds without mentioning falling off the mountain. I won.
He's so badass and awesome

Hello Beatrice how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
Merl Kilgore👍👍🤙🤙👍
Take me... am I a kid at 41?
Hank Williams Jr. is a very hard to interview guy. He puts me off but maybe there is someone out there who can do a better job than Kix.
I’d gladly love to go hinting with you. It has been so long since I’ve been out hunting and the it was only birds hunting back in 1986.
The street profits vs. and Bobby Roode
He is full of himself. He is his biggest fan.
Idaho 😏
I love me some Hank Jr. but man he's so full of himself these days.
beasthunt he’s always been that way. He used to live in my hometown and knew him well. Wasn’t so nice
Nobody’s Perfect - But Jesus !!!!
Matt Harden tell me more I've lived my life on his music but watched alot of interviews of him always kind of thought he was a little arrogant
All depends on the day with Hank. He was just always full of himself and was a jerk. He even mentioned the local paint store in his song I’ve got rights. Hank used to be drunk and high a lot, and when he was look out. When he’s sober he’s a cool dude but still has an ego.

yes Hank, but if you don't have JESUS, you have nothing.
Bluesmano9
Et
Max Barber Jesus Christ is real
I believe anybody who has lived through what he has and survived time after time and blessed with all the worldly riches probably knows more about Jesus than you. God is a personal journey so keep it that way
Greg Storey j Agree
Hank is actually a born again Christian ,and was baptized.so I think none of us are perfect and God knows who believes and who don't.
Glad Bocephus gave up cigarettes, for cigars.
Has Hank had a stroke? He's slurring his words.
Joshua g I always assumed it was false teeth
Joshua g he is drunk
Well he fell off a cliff
And landed on his FACE. He has worn a beard ever since because the reconstruction, as good as it was, still left him looking like a horror.

Fall in Montana & all the surgeries he had to go through!

Waylon was better than Hank Jr. and he was humble
THIS GUY DON"T LOOK LIKE HE COULD WALK 2 FEET
hank 3 better
A bit of a tool. No?
Eddie P He’s earned it.
