Would LOVE to see a modern bio on Hank Jr. From start to finish.

This guy is a gift. So humble an definitely his own man.

The fact that it looks as though someone recorded 20/20 in 1987 on vhs then converted and uploaded it to here is AMAZING! Hardcore Bocephus Fan right there!

Back when networks had legitimate journalism and music in every genre was great.

Seen Bocephus twice back in the 80's as a young child and it had a major effect on me and my musical journey. One serious entertainer that few could match. Great memories and I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to see him in his prime.

A legend to all us country folk. The voice that we always needed. God bles HWJ

One of my favorite Country singers ever. And one of my most memorable concerts. He crosses all genre of music and a true icon. He seemed so natural on stage and in his element. His father may have been a Icon in his time, but Hank Jr. is his own self made man. His singing Voice is unmistakable and unique ! Thank god he didn’t die on that mountain! I grew up listening to mostly Rock, but their was always some Hank Jr. in there as well.

Hank Sr would be proud of his boy.

I love both Hanks. Sr. and Jr. have their own style and sound. 💞💞💞💞💞💞

Wow. They'd never have the balls to do a feature on someone like Hank these days.

Never realized how much I loved country music till I heard hank Williams mr singing family tradition!!!

I just can't believe how great he looks considering how bad the accident was

its 2022 and i still listen Jr

I was out deer hunting a few years back & ran into hank in the woods.it was an akward shocking great moment.he signed the stock of my rifle we talked hunting for a few minutes & parted ways.i willl cherish that moment & the rifle forever.

I grow up on this man music! He a legend! Thank you for everything mr. Hank Williams jr.

Hank Jr.’s music helped to shape who I am as a man. I can’t give any higher praise than that.

Bocephus is great part of my life. I've past HIS music on to my two boys and they tell me all the time about how the lyrics are eternal.

I just got to see hank a couple hours ago at his concert at the harrinton fair in delaware and the man has still got it he played his ass off and i couldnt believe how many young fans were there going crazy and knew all of his music hank is a legend and after what i seen tonight his music will live on forever!!

Hollywood stars don’t turn out as genuine as this man. He made his own path with his own style. A mountain man

I love Hank Jr. and Hank Sr., they both created great music that is truly timeless...

The ironic thing about me finding this video today is, my wife and I saw Hank Jr for the first time live last week. (July 2022). We talked about it latter and both thought, we liked it, but kinda wish he would have sang the songs the way we were use to hearing them. HA HA. Obviously hasn't changed a bit and I can appreciate that. Still bangs on the keyboard with his boots too. 🤣

My gma went to see him in 87 she was wheelchair bound by this point and sometime during the show someone approached her and said come with us before she knew it she was stage side watching the legend belt out tunes for the rest of the night...

All American man right here. The horrible media doesn't deserve Hank.

Seen hank 3 times. Once with Waylon. I was inmy twenties great memories. Great music and he puts on a hell of a show.

I'd never seen this before. Loved it.

Grew up listening to classic country and classic rock. I love Hank Jr, Johnny Cash, David Allan Coe, but also love Led Zeppelin, the Doors, the Beatles, Pink Floyd etc....my folks made sure I had a solid foundation of good music...my generations music mostly sucks in comparison, but this new generation makes mine sound good, it's that terrible....this world is going right down the shitter alright...

Love Hank Jr. What a story better yet what a life of ups and downs heartaches and good times and I feel for him losing a child was his biggest challenge and a person never gets over something that devastating but he's still going strong and that's what I love about Hank Jr.

Talk about an all-time high...siting around deer camp listening to Bocephus picking and singing!

Chase, you have that perfect country-music voice! I could listen to you sing all day long. I actually see your energy within your songs! I bet you are fun!

Love Love Love this guy and his music ❤ Forever

Man i love Hank Jr. ever since i was a young kid, i can still remember listening to my first and absolute favorite song on the NEW SOUTH cassette tape called 'Montgomery In The Rain' for the first time in my dads car back when i was about 3 or 4 years old and i was hooked, ive listened to that tape probably more times then anyone on this planet, i still love it to this day and always will cause its one of my earliest memories..

HANK JR!! IS AMAZING!!🔥🔥🔥~After reading an interview he had I surely understand what he went thru!! He came out by me & was Soo excited to see him!! He came on stage sang 1 hlf song with words we couldn't understand 😞 walked off stage n never came back on 😞Buuut Hank God Has His Hand On You ~Use That Gift For Good!💜🙏

Musically, Hank Jr. is a virtuoso, his song writing capabilities are superb...

What an icon! It's too bad they don't advertise Alpha males like this guy these days! This generation could use it right about now!

I've always loved you and your dad's music. Beautiful voice's. 💗💗💗💗

There is no music 🎶 like this , since !! Hank sr. is still the KING of country music and Jr. followed in his footsteps.

I went to Hank Sr's grave. Beautiful setting. Montgomery, AL

If there's any doubt that Bocephus can sing, listen to Country Boy Can Survive. The man has an awesome set of lungs!

I love Hank sr and Hank jr

Love ya Jr. Hope y'all out live us all.

Love his music Hank Williams Jr... and of course his Dad's...

I was working for the Dupont company on the midnight shift January 1, 1953 when a man came up to me and said, "Hank Williams just died!" I'll never forget how I felt that moment.

At 14 he's the quintessential professional. His stage presence on Ed Sullivan was impressive.

Speaking of the accident that nearly took his life, it is truly a miracle that he survived. I am not an overly spiritual individual but I believe someone was watching over him on that mountain.

I really hope you live many more years Hank, but as yourself doing just what you want to do because we love you that way.

What the?!....This is the first time I knew that Jr could slam some keys, but it was even more surprising to learn that his boot could too!

I don’t know his dad’s music very well but “A Country Boy Can Survive” in my opinion is one of if not the greatest country song ever recorded.

Will never be another one! He's one of us. A country boy.

I have ben inspired for many years by this kind of music

Entertainer of the year 5 times and so many other awards and nominations.

I paid to see him in Augusta me around the time of this interview. 86-87 somewhere in there. He was out if it he couldn't sing. He finally found peace shortly after that. He's a heck of a singer.

Hank Williams Jr is a walking miracle

Huge fan. Thanks for uploading. He is the man!

It's a miracle he survived that fall.

man is the man he has beautiful voice god bless

Thank you for sharing. Hank has had a very painful life…both Physically and Mentally. My thoughts have been with him and his family as the past couple of years has been horrific for him… with the passing of his daughter Katie and most recently his wife of 32 years, Mary Jane. Honestly, my heart aches for him.

The impact of his father's death, his mother's pushiness and all those drinks and drugs really messed him up. He was never allowed to escape Hank Sr's shadow. He had to do that himself.

Imagine what Country and Rock n Roll would be like without this man! And yes....he affected both genres.

I feel cheated in life only being 22 and not being able to see younger hank jr live

Hank jr. You give inspiration to men which listens to you with that they do better, in the military, in life . You make us feel strong .... So yes you were spared for that very reason. So Yes you are a Hero. Nuff said

Raised in Carolina on this music, Daddy loved it

We Love You Bocephus! Your Daddy would be proud cause you did it your way! I am proud that i got to see you in concert when i was just a young boy of 9 or 10... I still have Pictures and a T-Shirt from it and Remember It (You) like it was yesterday... ...& Im Also Thankfull that God Blessed us all with a Talent like yours! Im Forever Grateful to you for putting yourself, your life, in your songs to share with us all! Keep Rockn' Hank! Your the Greatest Country Rockn' Singer/Songwriter/Musician there has ever been! A True Living Legend! ...Sincerely... ~Benjamin D. Collard~ [04/30/18] #Bocephus #HankWilliamsJr #RockOn #DrJones #OneOfAKind #ACountryBoyWillSurvive

Man this is priceless. Me and Hank share a birthday.

my favorite song of Hank is if if it will it will .Hank Jr is my main man Hank you keep it going my man

Thank you for sharing! You are my all time favorite! I listen to you everyday!

1st I heard was on a lil record I think 33 speed vinyl. It was Family Tradition. Hooked immediately.

If his mother had succeeded in having him to continue to do his daddy's songs just look at what we would've missed. I'm glad he insisted on doing his "own thing" because both him and his music have made my life better. I have been a fan since my late teens (I'm no longer a spring chicken) and as a fan I have enjoyed both looking at him(his IS easy on the eyes) and listening to his music. I very much appreciate the fact that his mother did not succed in having him walk in his father's shoes.

Thank you.....Thank you..... I had never seen this 20/20. Peace....

Hank Jr is the best country boy, the good Lord has ever put breath into. He truly lives the life most men only dream of. Long live Bocephus.

One of the All Time Grates Hank Williams, Jr

Hank is a strong invincible person besides the talent he has

The son of a legend becomes a legend himself!!

I watched the Volunteer Jam in 2015 and wished so much Hank Jr. would have been there, Nice Video back in 2005 with Gretchen Wilson, you four should go on tour together cause you all ROCK!!!

THE GREAT HANK JR....Nothing better than pouring a whiskey, and sitting by a fire blasting his songs...

I don't listen to country music, but I listen to and have Hank Williams Jr. CDs.

What a life he must have lived, even with all the ups and downs

I think every "section" of these Great United States has its own accent in speech. I am from the same general section as Bocephus, his accent has never changed. The South Alabama twang sounds like home to me. Ol Bocephus has made this guy very proud.. Please forgive my bad grammar.

Thanks for sharing this!

Pills and whiskey... brutal combo

What a gem of a documentary of one of the standard bearers of Americana. Never knew his backstory until watching this. Hank Jr. is indeed an immortal legend whose legend may even outlive that of his foundational father (blasphemy right ?). Anyhow, what a walking miracle that man is and tough as nails. So many legends of yesteryear that are relatable to the plight and pain of the common man. Something seemingly far removed from the celebrities/popular musical performers of today.

11:30 Holy shit. I had no idea he'd had his face ripped off.

I'll tell ya...Hank Jr. Is one he'll of a fighter for getting back from falling off a mountain. That's for sure.

I just saw BOCEPHUS on October 9th 2021 and I took my 20 year old son and Hank rock that show and it blew my son's mind that Hank at the age of 72 could boogie woogie and was not drinking love you BOCEPHUS

Awesome!!👍🎻🎸🎵🎶

Hank Jr Rocks!! Actually all 3 Hanks Rock!!

If Hank was alive and found out his son was in the hospital several times at a young age, his rage would be unbelievable. He had a lot of pride for Hank jr. You could only imagine what he would say to Audrey.

I love Hank Williams J.r

My favorite Hank Williams jr movie was In Living Proof The Hank williams jr story with Richard Thomas as Hank williams

I`ll be here and back in life my belief! Family LOVE!

Hes a National Treasure

2022 and a Legend.

Great video!!! I remember seeing that live when I was 12 years old.

Hank got a new record deal and new music coming out later this. year I hope radio will play it I know it will be good he should also be in the hall of fame Shame on the hall

I first saw hank jr in 88 and I saw him 10 more times. In my experience he was sober enough about 6 of those concerts. I guess I didn't care because I was drunk too! Last time I saw him was for the beginning the football season in I believe 99 or 00 at river front in Nashville. It was one of the best concerts I have ever been too..I no longer live in Nashville so I have not seen him since.

This was all in the year I was born. I love hank sr and jr. You have quenched my soul's thirst and I wanted to thank you for the upload. Thank you very very much. I needed to see this in the exact moment I did.

2020 anyone? lol

Hank Williams Senior was totally modeling himself after Jimmy Rodgers.

I've heard this story change like 6 times at first it happened in Montana now Texas then a few more things I just dont know what to believe tbh

A favorite female country singer & friend of his was PENNY DEHAVEN.

Love both of them
