Late to the party as usual, but Shooter Jennings’ cover of the Dire Straits classic should already be a classic! Waymore would be proud! And so would Mark Knopfler! Good golly, this video was made in 2007!
I’m sorry but it appears I’m about two years late to the party here lol 😂 ,, but nowadays Shooter is one of the , if not the most sought after music producers and song writers in country music. His resume is incredible and I didn’t know any of this until I somehow got a hall pass for the weekend not long ago and I just started reading his work and watching his interviews , he is incredibly talented and I have no doubt that he’s already made a name for himself and he is just getting started.
F**kin' right! I just don't get it, either. Shooter, just like Waylon (God rest his soul), is truly one of the great ones. And those jackasses in the music industry need to RECOGNIZE!!! We love you, Shooter. Keep on keeping on, my brother.
I was prepared to be underwhelmed......but ol Shooter nails it! I love how he takes this classic and makes it his own without ruining it... that's rare, and real talent! Love the pedal steel. Video is funny too.... love when the gal with the pregnant chick slaps the tampons on the counter! ha
Put them ear buds in blast that music and lock the world outside. Still here August 2024!!! I was born in the 60's great tunes. Something about the 80'S and 90's were great memories. Back when things made sense!
I Love shooters music, just watching shooter and listening to his music lifts my spirits. 😊❤ You get 💯credit from me and my friends and family. 🤍🕊️😘✌️❤️. My son was born in 1979 and is a great musician since the age three. He played music before he could talk. We are fans of angry grandpa also. Loved the gravy cook off. I was so sad to lose John H. RIP. What good people you are. I'm also a Jennings. Hell we might be related. Never know. I would be proud to be related to you,. Love y'all......
I was 6 years old when I was first introduced to Waylon Jennings and Jessie Colter when my Dad bought the White Mansions Album in 1979 and have been a fan ever since. I still love that album. The Last Dance and a Kentucky racehorse is my favorite song cause of how J.C. voice captures the Time of the era. And my all time favorite from Waylon is I don't think Hank done it this way. I'm just now hearing Shooter for the first time. You look just like your Dad. Almost got his voice .looking forward to listening to more. Much more lol. I have a lot of catching up to do.Keep killing it Shooter! Keep Bringing out the Bangers!
I was prepared to be underwhelmed, but hey, Shooter owns this classic! He makes it his own without ruining it....very rare. Vid is cool too.... love when the chick w/the pregnant chick puts the tampons on the counter....ha ;-)
Love your music and your voice, Shooter. I'm a great fan of your daddy and now I am also your fan. Country stations are missing out on a great talent! Keep on going Shooter.
Shooter you kick it out of the ball park. I have a old album of his. Think about this, how much fun would it be to watch them live. They set up at like 7 11 and play music all day long. Of course the drinks on the house. What do you all think? Daddy would be proud.
I won't make comparisons. I think a cover should be different. It's a great song and this is a great version. Shooter puts his own spin on it, and I give props for him knowing that it works as a country song.
This is the kinda Kuntry that should be ruling the airwaves. The crap that's in rotation on country radio is not even good pop music. Thank You Shooter for not "Toeing The Line" in Nashville.
I worked a gas station half a mile in either direction from Paducah's only two strip clubs.The place had tanning booths and at Midnight,I was supposed to shut the beer sales off. The cops were ostensibly there to enforce that regulation but were there for the same reason that I was:to oogle the girls.
Shooter is 100 percent . One of my best memories ever has his 4th of july tied to it. I think he is talented and humble to be country music royality.i read what he posted on fb about struggle Jennings and what waylon would have though. Shooter is extremely gracious. I'd smoke.my last joint with him
You really sound like your dad in this one! AWESOME!!! I love me all of the Jennings , Waylon,Jessie, Shooter, Struggle, Brianna, and all the rest. Wow 4 generations of GREATNESS!!!!!!
I just find out Waylon and Jess son scooter he looks both of them I hope keeps The Jennings music going on like Bocephus Did for his dad his grandson For Hunk Sr. Your dads were my best heroes for my dad and me thank you so much God Bess your Families
I pressed like on this a while ago and a few views later it said dislike (could've been accidental) but still got me rattled about how anyone could dislike this "classic" cover of this classic song! : ) Mark Knopfler is one of the greats!!## Great job Shooter!!! Waylon would be more than proud (I really hope knopfler gave you props for this too eh Every song I've heard by you has been a hit. Cheers from Canada! 4
Dire straits are amazing. Shooter covers them w pure genius. Love how he covers bands outside country like nirvana, meat puppets, etc. his new album he collaborated w Marilyn Manson and Tom Morello of RATM
Whey is ABSOLUTELY incredible and his band Can certainly put on a great show and great entertainment. Takes after his father @ mother as they were the best ever singers ever. RIP WAYLON AND JESSE HAVE A NICE LIFE WITH YOUR NEW MAN AS YOU CERTAINLY DESERVE IT. KINDEST REGARDS ELIZABETH SCOTLAND ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Well this is a great cover ....haven't really listened to shooter in some time, damn great job.....I am really impressed with this style and blend of music.... Southern comfort music...
Late to the party as usual, but Shooter Jennings’ cover of the Dire Straits classic should already be a classic! Waymore would be proud! And so would Mark Knopfler! Good golly, this video was made in 2007!
This is amazing. Why isn't he waaay more famous???
Because he doesn’t need to be. ❤
@@jackhammer9775 true.
The best
2024 I still love the way Shooter did this cover ❤
His vocals are incredible for the songs he writes and the covers he does. So underrated! They’re awesome
Not a bad outlaw country version of a classic rock hit. Daddy would be proud. Shooter is a bad ass
Ok, got it. Move South, work in a gas station convenient store, and let the night handle the rest
From a 'seasoned' UK Dire Straits lover - the guy has nailed it!
Mark Knopfler is the guy you are trying to name.
Wish my like was worth at least 2 mill. This dude should’ve been country music for a generation if things weren’t disgusting and disgraceful.
Shooter is his fathers son, but doesn’t get credits he should get. His dad would be proud. You go.
You can say that again
I’m sorry but it appears I’m about two years late to the party here lol 😂 ,, but nowadays Shooter is one of the , if not the most sought after music producers and song writers in country music.

He don't need "credits" he is his father's son. That's more then enough!
F**kin' right! I just don't get it, either. Shooter, just like Waylon (God rest his soul), is truly one of the great ones. And those jackasses in the music industry need to RECOGNIZE!!! We love you, Shooter. Keep on keeping on, my brother.
Aye. I'm sure Jessi is proud, those of us who know, are.
I was prepared to be underwhelmed......but ol Shooter nails it! I love how he takes this classic and makes it his own without ruining it... that's rare, and real talent! Love the pedal steel. Video is funny too.... love when the gal with the pregnant chick slaps the tampons on the counter! ha
That was a pregnancy test. Thats the joke 😆
The pregnant gal is his wife, Drea DeMatteo, and the other lady is his mother, Jessi Colter.
I like his version better
Don't matter how you discovered this dude, as long as you did :)
I think ole Waylon be damn proud of Shooter carrying on the family name
Good job Mr.Jennings'old video your mother and father was great 2223.
Put them ear buds in blast that music and lock the world outside. Still here August 2024!!! I was born in the 60's great tunes. Something about the 80'S and 90's were great memories. Back when things made sense!
Any similar blues you found on your time?
Shooter doesn't have to be like Waylon. He just needs to be Shooter! stop comparing them! i'm sure his daddy would be proud.
Shooter nails this cover. His guitar work is stellar. Vocals are on point. His dad would be proud.
He does nail it! I actually like it better than the original, but they are both awesome
💯
Pedal Steel is smokin'!!
So glad we still got a Jennings pumping good music out grew up with my dad jammin Waylon and hank and still blast it every day
Shooter has another song I like the Walk of Life😅
One of the best videos ever
Drea DeMateo brought me here..thanks girl! Most Excellent

Shooter,this is the best remake of any dire strait song,thank you!
I usually hate the new country but I’m digging this😂
You keep it up I rember hearing this when I was a youngin I'm 17 now and I'm still here
Great band, great cover - and a great guitar.
I like the nod to the original video with the criminal bloopers instead of the sports bloopers.
I love this version!!! Love the instrumentation.
Excellent cover of the Dire Straits classic!!! Well done Shooter and friends!!!
One of the best covered cover of WOL. Super beat and improvisations and great fiddle work. Loved it.
I love this song ❤️🎶🎸
This is Awesome!!! I’ve literally played it over and over!!!! Hope my neighbors like it cuz they have heard it every time too!!!!
thanks to yelawolf s album i found yall,damn are goooooooooood im lovin this. blessed
Shooter's guitar is without a doubt the coolest i've ever seen!
Outstanding version! Wow!
Yeah. His dad would be proud!!

This is the kinda Kuntry that should be ruling the airwaves. The crap that's in rotation on country radio is not even good pop music. Thank You Shooter for not "Toeing The Line" in Nashville.
What a strange song to make that argument with, as this was a huge, MAINSTREAM, rock/pop song back in the day.
Worked at a gas station for 4 years. Saw all that on a daily basis. Except the band of course.
I worked a gas station half a mile in either direction from Paducah's only two strip clubs.The place had tanning booths and at Midnight,I was supposed to shut the beer sales off.
The cops were ostensibly there to enforce that regulation but were there for the same reason that I was:to oogle the girls.
Greg Schuman me to
As someone who is a former gas station worker, I relate to this (minus band obviously) entirely as well.
Even the mascot?
Yeah when you work in a Gas Station you get to see all kinds of weirdoes hahahaha
love
Just when I thought this song couldn't b done any better here comes Waylon's boy and tears it up with his own style
The older Shooter gets the more he looks like his Father.
My mom's name is Jessie and she was pregnant with me at the same time yours was with you! Happy birthday Shooter!!!!!
Love that guitar!!!!!!
Shooter is 100 percent . One of my best memories ever has his 4th of july tied to it. I think he is talented and humble to be country music royality.i read what he posted on fb about struggle Jennings and what waylon would have though. Shooter is extremely gracious. I'd smoke.my last joint with him
I love everything you do, Shooter. No question. You are amazing and I love you!
You really sound like your dad in this one!
AWESOME!!! I love me all of the Jennings ,
Waylon,Jessie, Shooter, Struggle, Brianna, and all the rest.
Wow 4 generations of GREATNESS!!!!!!
Mark would be proud! Wooo Hooooo!
Love this! I agree with @misterbones
I very rarely enjoy remakes , especially of great songs that are classics,but my hats off to these guys, excellent choice, excellent voice!
thats the coolest guitar ive ever seen!!!
I just find out Waylon and Jess son scooter he looks both of them I hope keeps The Jennings music going on like Bocephus Did for his dad his grandson For Hunk Sr. Your dads were my best heroes for my dad and me thank you so much God Bess your Families
Shooter Jennings bring the country music to rock and roll where it belongs.
❤❤❤
We play hip hop but if we played country this is what we would play. Go Shooter!!
F it let's play it all!
shooters the man better than half of the crap on the radio. He did this song justice with his spin on it.
Love shooter jennings hope you keep making music
I pressed like on this a while ago and a few views later it said dislike (could've been accidental) but still got me rattled about how anyone could dislike this "classic" cover of this classic song! : ) Mark Knopfler is one of the greats!!## Great job Shooter!!!

I love this version of the song better than the original. Shooter and his guys put so much more sound and energy into it.
