Steven Tyler and Buddy Guy – “All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight” Live
Hey, Do You Want To Party?
This is a wonderful tribute to American singer-songwriter Hank Williams Jr. from two music legends — Steven Tyler and Buddy Guy. It’s an intense and power-packed performance with lots of electrifying energy — quite typical each time Tyler steps on the stage.
“All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight” was written and recorded by Hank Williams, Jr. and is the second single from his studio album “Major Moves.” It was released on October 1, 1984 and eventually became Williams’ signature song.
- Number 10 in the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks
- The music video, directed by John Goodhue, featured several other artists
The music video became the inaugural winner for both the Country Music Association and Academy of Country Music Music Video of the Year award. Williams vocal performance earned him a nomination for CMA Male Vocalist of the Year as well as Grammy nominations for Best Country Song and Best Country Vocal Performance, Male in 1985.
With such a critically-acclaimed musician, it’s just fitting that the tribute will be given by no less than Steven Tyler and Buddy Guy. It’s an amazing experience to see two iconic and big names in the music industry tip their hat to another legend!
“All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight”, which would become a hit in its own right, is now best known to football fans as the song Williams would remake as “Are You Ready For Some Football?” for Monday Night Football.
I hope you enjoy this video as much as I did!
