Hank Jr.'s career stands as the most frustrating of all modern honky-tonkers', as much for the way the industry has managed his immense catalogue as for the way he has managed his undeniable gifts as a songwriter and singer. At three CDs, Curb's overview is a far cry from "complete": his best work, especially the tough, bluesy songs of Whiskey Bent and Hell Bound, is slighted in favor of a play-the-hits approach, even though Williams's singles haven't always been his best work. Likewise, the collection includes nary a cut from the sadly out-of-print Hank Williams Jr. & Friends, though the liner notes recognize that 1975 album as a landmark. Instead Curb has cobbled material readily available elsewhere on existing hits packages and complete albums. That said, Jr.'s country-fried rock--newcomers may be shocked at how hard he rocks--and his unreconstructed hillbilly ideology can be bracing on "Come On Over to the Country," on the foreboding "A Country Boy Can Survive," and on his best '80s performance, a scorching duet with Johnny Cash on "That Old Wheel" (from Cash's classic Water from the Wells of Home). But instead of focusing on similarly strong tunes, this box includes the tasteless beyond-the-crypt duets with Hank Sr., the silly, unblushing prejudice of "Young Country," and the war-mongering diatribe "Don't Give Us a Reason"--as if the listener needed reminders of just how bad Bocephus can be. What Hank Jr.'s legacy needs is a thorough, critical, and eclectic compilation of his finest performances. This set isn't it. --Roy Kasten

 Hank Williams Jr. is the best December 28, 2007
This CD set is awesome! All of Hanks best songs in one package. Hank Williams Jr. is one of the best Country musicians of all time and anyone that likes his music will not be disappointed with this CD set. Highly recommended to all Hank Jr. fans and anyone else that just wants to hear Hank's best songs. There is no better beer drinking music than Hank Williams Jr. Party On Hank!

a hank hits without "the conversation"? are y'all sniffin gaspipes?! my god.. some idiot didn't pay-out and done ruined this here. i was gonna buy it too. well, godbless anyway.
 NOT COMPLETE March 9, 2007
The description "complete" on box sets gets more ridiculous all the time. Only 45 songs from a guy who had 9 of the top 40 albums on the Billboard country chart at the same time?! Those 90 songs would barely be the beginning of a real Complete Hank Jr. Better off getting the bargain price CD reissues of the original albums than a bogus set like this.
claasic country January 16, 2007
a fine retrospective of hank williams work and in our case a great price.
all our favorites were there and she who must be obeyed was very happy with the cd.
 Hank Walliams Jr. January 12, 2007
It's a must have CD for any music lover. I like that it has most of his hit songs.
