Mainstream country went to hell in the 80s and it’s just gotten worse. But there’s still a lot of great talent out there. They just don’t get the marketing budgets they once did.
Got to see Waylon years ago back in 1978 he came to Hazard Kentucky to do a concert for their annual Black Gold festival, they also had most of the actor's from the Duke's of Hazzard show to appear at the festival, it was during this time that the Duke's of Hazzard had their highest ratings, The concert Waylon did there brought in a record crowd, people came from other States to see Waylon, I was only 16 at the time and it was definitely the biggest thing I had ever seen, Waylon was one of a kind, he was just as simple and down to earth as a country boy could be, Waylon's act was natural he didn't have to pretend to be something that he wasn't, I've seen other country musicians try to copy the image that Waylon had, and even though they try they can't even come close to being the entertainer that Waylon was, he didn't have to try it came natural to him and that's just one of the things that make him a true legend, Never could toe the mark and I never could walk the line, Yeah🎸🎸
This guy's legendary. Just his style and the way he tells the story. Fanatic, bravo, blues, rock country. Everything in the mix. These pop fools need to take notice. Tough guy is not an image it's a way of life.
I'm 82 and made country music over 30 yrs and That song was one of my cover songs I performed it with many leadmen. Son the the best rendition I've ever heard Thank you for making a old man smile
J.J. not recognized as he should be. God Bless RVZ for appreciating him the way he and his posse did. The remake of Csll me the breeze is off the charts.
@@DJK-cq2uy j j cale wrote after midnight but it only got big after he gave it to Clapton . There's a good video on the tub of them doing this live in 2012. Cale offers EC to join him up front but EC declines the spotlight. They do 'Call me the Breeze' from the same gig in the same video. Its really good.!
We worked Security for The Highwaymen back in the late 80s in Chicago. I shook hands with all of them when they came off stage. Willie had that dead look in his eyes likely from toking a little weed. Plus I was personal security for Johnny Cash during the Meet & Greet after the show. He was a real gentleman..
I saw Waylon&the Waylors in Gothenburg Sweden 1970 after that he became my absolutly music favorite.He did visit Stockholm for concerts a couple of times He and Jessi was also in a talk show in Swedish nat.tv I really miss the man and his music Sorry for bad English
Every day, I listen to the Waylon channel on Spotify, I’ve got over 200 songs, and that ain’t enough. While I’m working, Waylon is playing, and I love it! I can never get enough of Waylon. His only competition is Elvis.
Back again, gotta listen to this from time to time. What a great Waymore's Blues, killer groove. I can't get over the steel solo, no flash whatsoever but it fits the song perfectly.
Most awesome that guy playing steel guitar is absolutely incredible and I thought it is his brother playing drums but damn what a great song what a great rendition
There's a real honesty to Waylon's music. He wrote about his life and didn't hide the mistakes, it's all there. He had a great sense of humor, he really didn't seem to be nervous about performing. Very natural, and a huge amount of music. I keep finding great songs that weren't hits, but could've been. His covers of vintage country songs were the best renditions I've heard. Ramshackle Shack/Sparkling Eyes, Big Mamou, and Big Ball in Cowtown are just fun to listen to, thanks not only to Waylon's style, but Ralph Mooney's scorching lap steel. Miss both of them, great musicians.
F d Cccxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. B v th the cut vc Cecil the the one I I was talking about about the other one was was the one one who
I didn't get into him until after he died, I was into Kris and John even Willie to a point. Now the more I hear Waymore and listen to stories and interviews, I am hooked. Love watching him and Jessie sing Storms Never Last. Love you Waylong
I just love Waylon. He is simply the greatest. Would have loved 🥰 to go to at least one of his concerts. Some how he is never on those country classic collections, I don’t understand that. He really had some good hits in those days. He deserves more recognition.
Yep...I too will never get tired of listening to his music. Most of the good ole country singers are almost gone. Country music today is nothing compared to these old songs back in the day. They meant something!! Big difference than today's music. R.I.P. Brother....sadly missed 🕊🌹🕊🌹🕊🌹🕊🌹🕊🌹🕊🌹
@@loadi2865 What are you talking about - you got a group of polished, very talented, and seasoned musicians, between them must have thousands of hours of session work under their belt - they played exactly the way they should to back up a singer like Waylon - they laid down a solid rhythm, tight and uncluttered, allowing Waylon's singing and Robbie's playing to shine by not getting in their way. "that was no Moon by a long shot" True. There is no one that can do Ralph Mooney like Ralph Mooney. He influenced a lot of pedal steel players, no doubt, but no one else can sound like "that". Now Robbie Turner is not trying to "be" the Moon. Like Mooney, he developed his OWN style of playing UNIQUE to him. There is no one that can do Robbie Turner like Robbie Turner. Equally talented and skilled - different "signature"
@@mikewilkins2153 How true. AND Robbie positively nailed the solo on Waymore's Blues. The little guitar solo on the original album cut was an absolute gem, and Robbie showed how to get it done right on steel. BTW scrolling through the comments, EVERYBODY wants to know who the steel player is.
This man was. One of the great Legends. I worked with Duke he played Base for Waylon in the late 70s early 80s. Duke became a construction painter after leavening Waylon.
Waylon is be turning over in his grave . Where's Hank jr.s voice in all of this cancel culture bullshit?. I actually make my own wine and gro my own . Literally? Were are you?
That and actually country picking today country music has become to commercialized and many people try to please Nashville and the record company waylon said who cares what the record company wants they're supposed to sell what you do
Helda that man was the real deal and if you can find a cooler voice in country music let me know and by the way he had a signature guitar tone and some pretty cool riffs all in all he was a badass
One of the best...RIP....remember the 70s 80s all.filet mignon of country. ( reba mcintyre, Gatlin brothers. Alabama loretta Lynn. Crystal.gayle . Glen Campbell. Roy Clark. Etc)
Sounded as incredible as in the early days. "GOT MY NAME PAINTED ON MY SHIRT I ANIT NO ORDINARY DUDE I DONT HAVE TO WORK" BADASS..WAYLON ALWAYS #1 IN MY HEART, THAT VOICE GOES RIGHT TRHOUGH ME, OUCH💚🍀✌
My dad..who is deceased since 1980. Waylon was his favorite. And I'm JUST NOW...shame on me..lol. just now discovering what he loved. HEREDITARY. 🤭🥰💕💘❤
I grew up playing his music and loving it.. now I'm in my late 50s and I'm still playing his music.. now he's up there playing for the lord. I'll bet all the harps have been chunked and its guitars with Amos. Party on my friend..I'll be along soon
Im seriously addicted to this 2-song performance⚡😂💫 from the grizzly rose. Been there multiple times. 2 hours away for most of my life but just found this a year ago
Timothy Shearer , If I was a drinker I would’ve also . Waylon passed on My Birthday and I cried all day & actually I’m still sad 😢. Love Waymore so much !!!
How on earth do you NOT love Waylon Jennings???
I used to play guitar and sing a lot and people told me I sounded like Waylon Jennings and look like Sam Elliott then I got throat cancer the end
One of the most under rated songs of all time🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Still better then the so called country singers out now. True legend.
The country singers today have been Hollywoodized.
@@donnabowen9983 Back in the day and definitely now, a lot of them are Nashville-ized. Waylon fought it, all the way to the charts.
❤
Mainstream country went to hell in the 80s and it’s just gotten worse. But there’s still a lot of great talent out there. They just don’t get the marketing budgets they once did.
ABSOLUTELY
He is most definitely missed..by millions of people...
One of a kind he sets apart from all the rest helps me get three shit
Hell yea😊
HOWS OLIVIA
The very best country music had to offer
What a talent, Waylon paid dues that most aren’t willing to
I can still see my dad sitting at the picnic table with his dog drinking a beer and listening to Waylon and Willie. PRICELESS
I can still see myself doing just that
I can just see that dog drinking a beer!
He'll yes
I was like your dad.
I feel you
Got to see Waylon years ago back in 1978 he came to Hazard Kentucky to do a concert for their annual Black Gold festival, they also had most of the actor's from the Duke's of Hazzard show to appear at the festival, it was during this time that the Duke's of Hazzard had their highest ratings, The concert Waylon did there brought in a record crowd, people came from other States to see Waylon, I was only 16 at the time and it was definitely the biggest thing I had ever seen, Waylon was one of a kind, he was just as simple and down to earth as a country boy could be, Waylon's act was natural he didn't have to pretend to be something that he wasn't, I've seen other country musicians try to copy the image that Waylon had, and even though they try they can't even come close to being the entertainer that Waylon was, he didn't have to try it came natural to him and that's just one of the things that make him a true legend, Never could toe the mark and I never could walk the line, Yeah🎸🎸
Me to in Tampa, Florida but can’t remember the year, Hank Jr too!!!❤
Good comment friend
I can't explain why I love this so much but I think the band loved playing for Waylan as much as the fans loved hearing it ! He was a cool cat !
I was younger and my dad played that kinda music and he loved this guy as much as the people did. I miss my dad also, he was a good memory for me
That sounds about right!
This guy's legendary. Just his style and the way he tells the story. Fanatic, bravo, blues, rock country. Everything in the mix. These pop fools need to take notice. Tough guy is not an image it's a way of life.
Hello, So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song. How are you?
I CANT FIND MY GUN@@davidholton9667
DRUNK SHIT I RECKON
I know whats wrong with the world today.....it's not Covid......it's cause Waylon's not here......I miss you my friend......
Agreed
what's wrong people don't help the world. lts not his fault.
Absolutely :BROTHER
Absolutely ...
Waylon will forever be in my heart, his music in my soul!
One of the greatest real country music singer's there ever was
Never will another one like ol Waylon! Fact!
The days when every artist had his sound style and passion....real country real music.......not like today.
Well, a lot of it wasn't so real back 'then', let's remember. That's what Waylon was fighting when he came to Nashville.
@@commontater8630yes the big money people that say how can and how can't.
And there are great artists now, as them.
Good ole outlaw days, I fear they are on long gone train adios amigos

I'm 82 and made country music over 30 yrs and That song was one of my cover songs
I performed it with many leadmen. Son the the best rendition I've ever heard
Thank you for making a old man smile
So clean and crisp..that bass is fukkin killin it too..along with tge steeeler. The drummer..and "hang on" ..Waylon
Amen. Love the steel player, Robbie Turner.
Almost all on em are gone. I've listened to this kind of music for 50yrs.

Man what a performance. RIP legends Waylon Jennings and J.J. Cale

Waylon and Jessie are 2 of best country western singer's ever lived. For a Black man these 2 guys have my heart ❤️
That's one class act on the steel. Superb musician, and a worthy successor to the "Moon"
no sir the band was not that great and that was no Moon by a longshot
after Mooney retired-- all other steel players seemed timid in comparison. Mooney made the steel jump & holler-- not just whine & moan.
