Good question. Define true country? I'd say he's way up there along with Willie, Hank, Johnnie, and Jones. All different but all country. He definitely embodies the rougher, earthy and honest side. For good or bad.
Man.. if he's not the greatest country singer.. he is easily without trying the coolest sumbitch to ever walk the earth.. that just happened to wanna sing 😉
Waylon is a huge hero. Some may think he was just a musician with a deep voice, but he was so much more. One of the most important figures in country music in XX century. Absolute legend and a good role model for all other musicians that came after him. Seemed like such a great and humble man also.
It's not only Waylon's voice, but the steel guitar and drums keep coming at you like a locomotive. That deliberately loud, fast-paced drum sound always set their sound apart. Hard to beat.
This band is in the pocket constantly. And yeah even Waylon stays in awe of how good their band is. Shows the commitment on each musicians behalf. Just discovered these live performances and way better than the studio versions
Great point except I truly have a hard time calling today's stuff country. I don't want to "slag" the new guys as Waylon was also criticized for not being "true country" but to me the new stuff is just pop music with country clichés. Waylon was a country singer who sang about all sorts of stuff but the lyrics were real and raw. I personally cannot connect to the new stuff. It's well sung, produced, and performed but something is missing......soul.
Can honestly say that Waylons version made me a believer in him and have been hooked since ...Sings with such clarity , not a stumblin word .. Hear him sing a song and you know the words .Always will think of him as the finest country voice ever ..
He earned the title of "Outlaw" by bucking the traditional Nashville establishment, and doing things his own way. And he didn't give a damn who liked it and who didn't.
The music, the voice, the songs, the huge number of songs, & the way he made them special...this works to make him just about the greatest country singer ever.
Here I am, a swedish guy who learned from his grandfather who listened to german radio playing country music during the 40’s and after that he never stopped. His favourite was Waylon, and after he died I started listening to his music, and that’s why I’ll always carry my grandfather with me. Also, Waylon is the eternal definition of cool.
I am thankful to the Lord above I grew up learning guitar in the mid seventies- I cut my teeth on Waylon and Skynyrd... At 56 I'm still in a band, playing this music ,in rural beer joints.... to a new generation . No greater decade for music than the 70's in my book..
Waylon is my "go to therapy" every single day. He just makes every day better. I never get tired of his voice magic. He can sing anything and it sounds great, every mood known to man he has covered. So great!
there are so many reasons why Waylon was great but for me it always comes down to that voice. Instantly recognized, and always full of sincerity and gravitas. You know that it's a "man" singing, not some "tween". The guy was an Outlaw only because the media labled him one. He was just doing it his way. By all accounts he was kind, funny, and articulate..... doesn't me you could screw with him( or his music)
+Tommy Petersen and his guitar you hear that you know its him saw him in Branson later in his career in the 90s,Glen Campbell was to open,they had a curtain that would open when they start,I heard Waylons guitar and told my wife thats Waylon it was and after he done a few songs he explained he had to leave in a hurry so he opened and he ask who bought tickets to see Glen one person yelled, Waylon said so your the one after he finished we along with probably 75% of the crowd left.
He was what is no longer politically correct. Anything he sings is heart felt, he was one.of the highway men. These were men who were labeled outlaw because their originating time frame was mainly gospel or folk (bluegrass). Waylon was an artist who cared what he had to say and was berated for it. He will always be one of the legends that times nor people can ignore. Remember your roots and where your music comes from. Today's crap does hold at least a thread in yesterdays, these kids and adults have heard this. It's not like today's favorite musician drew inspiration from his rear end.
Met him only once, at Stubbs BBQ in Lubbock TX probably 1974 or so. Stubbs was a small joint on the east side of town, gone now I'm told. Yes he was kind, and articulate... not a snob just a guy doing music. He wasn't there to perform (at Stubbs) just having supper
Was one Waylon. Know one will never come close to singing like him .love all his great song's .still listening to his beautiful songs and always will . He will all ways be a true legend . ❤ 2020
Listening to Waylon all day long to commemorate his passing 20 years ago today. But then, I listen to Waylon EVERY day! Such a voice, nobody can match it. I've found songs I never even heard before even though they should have gotten big time air play. His voice will always be an inspiration to anybody who loves country music.
The first record I ever bought was Waylon…. Think I made a great choice. The best country singer in my opinion….. and many others I’m sure. Thanks Hoss for the music.
@@71butcher22 You are very right. I saw Waylon's up close and, one in Las Vegas in the Hard Rock. Even with all that leather, it still sounded incredible!
I just keep coming back to this masterpiece. The Waylors, especially in this era, are one of the greatest bands ever. In any genre. Fact. The players in that band are legendary. In fact, Ralph Mooney was a legend before he ever joined up with Mr. Jennings. The interplay between them and their instruments is just top shelf phenomenal. I will go on little trips where they are all I’ll listen to for multiple days.
That finger picking though I grew up on a small ranch in Valencia New Mexico USA with my Grandfather he would listen to Waylon and dance nothing like an old school 2 step miss those days back in the 80' Jamming Waylon in 2019 #waylonforever
Jesse Daniel does a great cover of this song. My grandfather said Waylon was the best country singer that ever lived. Hard to argue with that logic personally.
Let's all just wait a second here and get our bearings together. I'm not a country music afficianado but good grief didn't anybody notice that Mr. Jenning was quite attractive?
I agree. He was definitely sent by God to entertain us with some of the best music ever done by a man with one of the best voices ever. Thank you 😊 God for giving us Waylon Jennings.
You damn right electric guitar in step with a steel guitar! Rip Johnny Tweed jr. 12/25/20 i love you son, say hello to waylon & i will be to see you soon son. Love, Dad
A million thanks for posting this. There are not many videos around from this period of Waylon's career and if they are the quality isn't nearly as good as this series. I'm surprised that he performed for such a relatvely small crowd at the peak of his career.
Waylon was known for having a short fuse. He wanted to record the songs he liked, his own and artists like Kris Kristofferson. The establishment wanted him to record the music they wanted, as they dislikedhis sound. When they wouldn't let him record the music he wanted he started his own record company and recorded his music. The industry used their influence to keep radio stations from playing his music, and keep large venues from booking him. Despite this he was the star, and played a lot of these small venues, especially in Texas. The radio stations started playing his music, and he actually paved the way for artists to have greater say in their music. He and some musicians, including Willie Nelson were dubbed "outlaws."
Man what a beautiful voice indeed , what an awesome sound , Wow I am totally in love 😍 Waylon was awesome singer and awesome guitar player too I am so impressed by his chicken picking
You could tell that Ralph Mooney was high on playing the steel guitar and good’ol Waymore was high on something else.... He worked his fingers to the bone and left a rich legacy of the best country music ever made; but substance abuse, and eventually ill health, robbed him of enjoying the fruits of his labor
I’m still listening to Waylon 2024
this song was featured some in the movie "Hell or High Water"..
me too
Me too❤️
@@jerryhopper1685 same! Daily!
Me too
I miss that guy! I miss those days.....
Oh my!!!! Those were the best days of my life ❤and year's also!!!!
When ever he came through NYC, my wife and I went to his show. Last time we saw him Miss Tammy Wynette was the warm up. Priceless. May both RIP.
♥ Love this era of Waylon.
His voice is kickass, but what I love most about him, is that he's a true badass, an outlaw, and a awesome picker on the geeeetar!!
I got busted for something I already done
Waylon was my greatest musical hero for decades still love his music to this day.
One of the most handsome men God ever made
Hello Crystal, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the Virus??
Yeah, and I'm a straight man.
Gorgeous!
AMEN TO THAT ♥️

Still listening to Waylon in 2023
Same here. First heard him in a 1973 radio interview, while on vacation. Five years later, I was hooked.
Such a beautiful song
2024
Will listen to him until I'm dead
And ‘24 and as long as I’m alive 😻👏🏻🥰‼️
Anybody out there think this might be the greatest true country singer of all time ?
Me too.
I’m sittin here thinkin the same damn thing brother
Absolutely. I keep coming back no matter what.
No doubt whatsoever
Good question. Define true country? I'd say he's way up there along with Willie, Hank, Johnnie, and Jones. All different but all country. He definitely embodies the rougher, earthy and honest side. For good or bad.

❤. I Love You Very Much. Waylon Jennings ❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's not only Waylon's voice, but the steel guitar and drums keep coming at you like a locomotive. That deliberately loud, fast-paced drum sound always set their sound apart. Hard to beat.
Sheer genius on Wayon's part to decide to have two lead guitars in the band. His was one of them Moon's steel was the other.
Richie Albright started the whole damn outlaw country thing with his drum beats.
Bryan!fantastico! Il tuo commento e molto bello! 🙋🤩🤩😍😍😘💋🌹
The steel guitar gets me everytime
This band is in the pocket constantly. And yeah even Waylon stays in awe of how good their band is. Shows the commitment on each musicians behalf. Just discovered these live performances and way better than the studio versions
I can't stop listening to this beautiful song ❤️
This man was a was a true legend there will never be another Waylon the country music today dosnt even come close to these past singers

Sturgill Simpson Colter Wall just to name a cpl...take a listen
he's was hard to get over cash and him well there'll never be anymore
Great
It's crazy he lost a coin flip to Ritchie Valens and lived. He could of been on the plane the day music died.
This is real country music that hits you deep down in the soul

His pause before '.. knowing..' and that smile, knowing he crushed it👌🏻
He is it!
Such in incredibly "cute" grin on his face at this point.....
He didn’t forget any fuckin words. It’s an intentional pause. Listen to other takes of the same song . Shit !
The music, the voice, the songs, the huge number of songs, & the way he made them special...this works to make him just about the greatest country singer ever.
I agree he is great
I dont knowwww… Marty Robbins wasn’t too shabby . Merle Haggard in his early records…
Few musicians can/could be as diverse as Waylon. Any song made you a believer in the good times or the bad.
Here I am, a swedish guy who learned from his grandfather who listened to german radio playing country music during the 40’s and after that he never stopped. His favourite was Waylon, and after he died I started listening to his music, and that’s why I’ll always carry my grandfather with me. Also, Waylon is the eternal definition of cool.
Waylon's a hell of a guitar player too!
I am thankful to the Lord above I grew up learning guitar in the mid seventies- I cut my teeth on Waylon and Skynyrd...
At 56 I'm still in a band, playing this music ,in rural beer joints.... to a new generation .
No greater decade for music than the 70's in my book..
Bingo. Go get em man.
Waylon Jennings always was and always will be my hero. I grew up in the 80's & 90's thank God my Mom and Dad played Waylon for me as a kid.
I am about 10 years older than you and did the same exact thing! Haven't played professionally in about 7 years now. Still WANT to though!
Waylon is my "go to therapy" every single day. He just makes every day better. I never get tired of his voice magic. He can sing anything and it sounds great, every mood known to man he has covered. So great!
Still listening to Waylon in (2025) ! The rebel of Country! Miss him Rip
I wish I could give the video a hundred thumbs up. Waylon hit this one out of the park!
No one could ever match Waylon.
It's a toss up between Waylon and Elvis . . . . .

What about Merle.

Waylon was the best ever , that voice was one of a kind WAYLON JENNINGS REST IN PEACE my friend
Yes that steel guitar & the drum player does an excellent job.i love to watch both of them when they put the cameras on them.
Waylon Jennings is one of the coolest human beings to ever live
