Old Habits Are Hard To Break.. November 17, 2009
R. Webb (u.s.a.)
Habits Old And New,The New South, are the two elite Hank Williams Jr. albums, simply the maverick's best. Habits Old And New,showcases the singer's blues,country/rock influences after finally breaking away from Nashville, and the shadow of his father's name. The brilliantly written ,"Old Habits",- tells of quitting "the hard stuff",Dinosaur - a dying breed,The Blues Man, - burnt out on the road,"Kawliga","Move It On Over" - rockin' Hank,"All In Alabama" - a family tradition,"The American Way",a patriotic view,"If You Don't Like Hank Williams"-Kristofferson's hell raising tribute,all these songs reveal the real Hank Williams Jr.,the man behind his music,as only he can tell it back in 1980,essential.

Hank's has always shown the influence of his father while being distinct from it. The influence is most obvious in the many covers of his father's songs (albeit done in Junior's own style) and the many songs that are, in one way or other, about his father. On this album, the family influence is stronger than ever. There are covers of Kaw-liga and Move it on over, while there are two songs about his father - The blues man and If you don't like Hank Williams. His father also gets mentioned in Dinosaur.
All those tracks are great but the standout track here is the title track, a superb ballad about how some old habits can be broken more easily than others. Here I am again and Won't it be nice are other excellent ballads. Hank gets on his soapbox in The American way. Hank sings about the south (as he often does) in All in Alabama.
This is yet another classic album from Hank, mixing country, blues and rock in his own unique way.
Best Album April 25, 2003

This album in my opinion is one of Hank's best. The song "Old Habits" is one of my all time fanorite Hank songs. "Dinosaur" is right next to it. You can't go wrong by buying it. The whole album is great it tells alot about Hank and how he thinks about things. This has to be the appitomy of hank's albums.
This is the real Hank Williams Jr in my opinion January 9, 2003

It just shows how great he can sing country music when he leaves the rock guitar out. He's good both ways but great this way. I recommend everybody whos a fan of him or country music buy this. Also if you liked the movie Living Proof: The Hank Williams Jr Story and you loved the songs that played in the background then you'll really love it cause its got three songs from the movie on it. 1. Here I am Fallin' Again 2. The Blues Man 3. All in Alabama. All great songs Its simply a GREAT album.
