Hank Williams Jr. made an appearance last Tuesday on the Late Night with Jimmy Fallon Show to promote his new album 127 Rose Avenue. Hank says, 127 Rose Avenue is “one of the most special albums I have ever made. I don‘t think I have ever had a whole album where it came together this well and this quickly. A lot of the songs got written when I was out with my two Labradors and a hickory stick at 7:30 in the morning.” The legendary country musician awed fans with his performance of his new hit single, “Red White and Pink Slip Blues” but home viewers missed the surprise duet with host, Jimmy Fallon, when he joined Hank in a raucous rendition of “Family Tradition” performed in studio, after the taping of the show. The duet with Jimmy proved that not all of Hanks’ rowdy friends have settled down.
