I love me some Waylon Jennings. Hard, if not impossible to pick a favorite. The song and the album that started it all for me was "Honky Tonk Heros". I guess I became a Waylon fan and a Billy Joe Shaver all at once. Just like Kenny I loved Waylon's guitar and his unique sound. Kenny Vaughn is so cool as musician and as it turns out, as a story teller. I think Marty Stuart and the Fabulous Superlatives are just amazing. Love them live and all their cds. Kenny's cd is really great too. I wish he would cut another one. I hope you have some more Kenny content in store for us Otis.

He'd be another amazing guest. He hired Kenny to play on that record and he was unreal. He snapped at snapped at the engineer (my friend, Jack) at one point telling him, "The boss (me) wants Flatts and Scruggs, not Rascal Flatts." Holy shit, I came out of my chair laughing. There are still some legends walking around Nashville and it's wonderful just to be in the same room with them.

I've got a dozen or more favorite songs but Ralph put Waylon over the top, as far as I'm concerned. I had the opportunity to see/hear Moon not long before he died and you'd never make me believe that he wasn't pretty damned humble for the part he played in country music. Maybe he didn't give a damn what anyone thought but he seemed to me to be very honest as far as where he fit into the hierarchy of steel players. He considered himself to be "hillbilly" but if you listen to 'MacArthur's Park' that was the later version, he was unbelievable. The tone he got on songs like 'Couple more Years' live in Stockholm and if that doesn't grab you, I don't know what to tell you.

interesting comment about Waylon playing Ralph Mooney licks on the tele. One of my favourite W Jennings records is "Donna On My Mind" (1970), which pre-dates Rainy Day Woman but has the same lick. I remember asking the steel player in our band if he could cop the steel lick from "Donna". After a couple of listens, to our mutual surprise we discovered that it was actually being played on a tele - copied no doubt by Waylon from Mooney's work on the original recording of the song, which Wynn Stewart put out in 1962.

Waylon Jennings - Don't You Think This Outlaw Bit's Done Got Out of Hand. It was only on his second or third album but that soon into the Outlaw Movement and it was taking the USA, I mean the Eagles got on Pop Radio at the time with what would now be called country before the Hotel California Album, as did a few others I could mention from the 1970's doing a southern country rock sound of the era that today would be country.

*My favorite Waylon song is probably "Slow Rollin' Low". Billy Joe and him were a powerful team and really still haven't got the kudos they deserve as a soulful musical pair (hopefully now they have been reunited once again).* *Kenny is one of REAL connections to the outlaw world and there seem to be fewer and fewer of those every couple of months now, sadly. It is very nice of him to be so outgoing with his stories as he has been in all these insightful videos with him. He tells it like it is too, unfiltered and correct (talking about 80's Waylon not giving a shit about being musically sound anymore and how it's not all so rosy sometimes.* These vids are great. Really love the Waylon, Johnny, Jerry Reed, and Billy Joe stuff from the autobiographies and these sit-downs in particular, always learn something new about the old legends. Thanks again Otis!
