Chris LeDoux’s son shares one of his last recordings, Hank Williams Jr. proves his youth | Music City Minute

It’s hard to believe 20 years have passed since losing Chris LeDoux to cancer. One of his last recordings was a song called “One Hand In The Riggin’,” which his son Ned LeDoux has shared with the world. The new version is a duet recorded by Ned with his dad’s vocals used in the mix. The official music video is extremely sentimental with old reels of Chris’ rodeo career, as well as scenes of little boys and their fathers.
Hank Williams Jr. is proving he can keep up with the young’uns. At a recent show, Ole Hank was performing his song “Weatherman” when he “dropped it like it’s hot.” The rowdy crowd went wild seeing the 75-year-old hasn’t settled down and still has moves like Jagger.
