Hats off to Ronny Wood for playing that steel guitar beautifully.
Ron Wood is playing the steel guitar for nearly 50 years on many recordings and during concerts. Of course he is playing it beautifully, and he can play it rough and whatever you want.
@@georgeickhoff3646I'm glad you told that dope headed drunk off.
@@georgeickhoff3646I'm glad u told that clown off.
@@georgeickhoff3646 Yes, it's a great southern instrument.
@@georgeickhoff3646😂
This is very classy of the Stones to do this. How cool.
absolutely one of the coolest things the Stones ever did. wow.
But nowhere near "Satisfaction".
I agree, really cool
i love country music, tank ,,tio sam....
Disagree, it sucks.
They respect Bob, They Respect Waylon-- they respect America !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's a great comment rockin Ed, did you ever get to read some of the stuff that the guys in the stones said when in the presence of the American artists who inspired them, they went to the top and became the greatest live act that ever existed but they had respect by the shitload for others, its a who's who of artists that went on to do well in their careers that early on got a prize slot opening for the stones, also, read what bob dylan says about the rolling stones, never a truer word spoken
Thing of beauty. Nobody can touch Waylon, but the world's greatest rock n roll band paying tribute to Bob Wills? Doesn't get any better than that.
I remember when I was immature once. Stop comparing one to the other
@@therenegadej5764 Beautifully put.
The Stones paying tribute to Texans in Texas.
'You hit the nail on the head there.
@therenegadej5764 if youre refeerring tThe Rolling Stones and Waylon Ienjings, youre absolutely
right, 2 different artists, both great in their own right from 2 different eras, both had great music. But I have never really liked Waylon Jennings but I love this by both of them, but b they're like chalk and cheese.
You have to hand it to The Rolling Stones. There is no other bigger appreciator of American music.
especially southern blues/gospel/country, which is the grandfather of rock and roll.
Ron Wood playing pedal steel! The Stones are not only the greatest R & R band ever....they are also incredibile musicians! Long live The Stones!🌹🌹🌹
The Stones have charted a hit in every major genre
duh
Woody's pedal steel? "Get a girl with Far Away Eyes."
You didn’t know that??🤔
HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?????....THEY ARE "NOT THE GREATEST?...AND ARE PITIFUL MUSICIAN'S"???
I think Waylon would be proud. Good job, Stones.
The Rolling Stones have a better idea what Country Western should sound like than the current generation in Nashville.
Mick does this song proud.
Hell Yeah! they have the sound , even the look down. I'll take this over Bey once or Jelly roll, any day.
😆🤣🤣 amen
You are so right. At least Mick makes the effort.
so you don't know how to switch off from the songs you don't like ??? weird... not that hard... but, ok.... now, back to work.. your cousin's goat is haaangry
Talk about "Knowing your audience" Outstanding tribute!
How cool for the Stones to go into Texas and do a song especially for Texans. You can tell Mick was slightly out of his comfort zone, which made this all the more awesome. They nailed this song. A tribute to Bob Wills and Waylon in just under 4 minutes. This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen musically and I can't say I'm a huge Stones fan. Absolutely awesome.
Scott Marty all were...steel was rough but I am still an a for effort guy...hell yeah!
+Scott Marty It is VERY cool! :-)
Apparently you are just a fair weather Stones fan if you think Mick and the Stones have not covered country music before! Hell, "Far Away Eyes" easily could have been played on country music channels.
It sure could've. If I'd been in the audience when Sir Mick mentioned Waylon Jennings (0:43), I'd've been cheering the loudest and stomping a hole in the floor.
They are not in the least outta their comfort zone....start listening to all their music...you will be shocked.
What an amazing guitarist Ron Wood is. He is playing that pedal steel guitar like he has been a Nashville guitarist all his life. Great song boys!👍👍
OMG….is there a string instrument he can’t play?
I'm sorry to disagree but Ronnie should stick to his Strat. He ain't no country steel player.
@@XOkie always gotta be a country snob that can't just appreciate a respectful tribute.
yeahhh....
Yeah! I first saw Woody play live with the Faces before he joined Mick n the boys in 75. He’s extremely talented
🎸🎶🎸🎶🎸
What a hoot ! The rolling stones singing Bob Wills is still the king. I love it !
Never thought I would ever hear my uncle Bob's name roll of the tongue of Mick Jagger. lol!
For real?
Cool
They've always known and respected their roots.
Jim Wills, I am currently exchanging with the Bob Wills Foundation and Carolyn Wills regarding a fiddle that belonged to Bob Wills. If you would reach out to me so that I can share the story and pics, I would appreciate it.
Love it
Induct those boys into the Country Music Hall Of Fame. When one Rock N Roll King sings about a Country music Kings, you cannot top that.
England's greatest country band!
More country than anything out of Nashville these days
You damn well got that right!!
It's sad that the Stones can wing it and beat that $hit today.
Amen Miss Ashley!!!
Chee Migwitch!(big thank you) That new country is real bad twangy r & r. RED LAKE
STANDING CLOUD.
Accurate
Well, now I can say I’ve truly seen everything with Mick Jagger and the Stones doing “Bob Wills Is Still the King.”
Give the man a Stetson and a pair of cowboy boots. He's country.❤
The Stones can do all genres of music.
Good job Mick, from a huge Waylon fan
Same here! I got a chill when you invoked Waylon Jennings' name. You tell' em, Sir Mick!
Same here love Waylon! Mick is awesome
Me too. Hoss would approve.
👍 Right On. 😎✌️
New respect for Mick and the Stones.❤❤❤
So many people in this comments section like this song, but have ZERO clue of the absolute legend, Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys. The man who changed country music FOREVER. To this day, still one of the most influential acts to ever hit airways, especially in the 40's to the 60's. Almost every country star pre 80's had a direct influence from that band, and pretty much every country legend had sang at-least one of their songs.
Edit: An unknown fact, Bob Wills was the first man to ever sing an "ab-lib" on a record. His famous "Ahh-haaa". Still in the modern era, millions of songs use ab-libs like rap music. Bob did it first.
Known for Texas swing !
Drove Amarillo to Oklahoma City many times. They had a great country oldies station out Muskogee, used to play all the greats. Reminded me of growing up listening to WJJD in Chicago. Used to jam to Waylon, Johnny, Merle, Buck, George, Bob, along with Bad Co., Lynyrd Skynyrd, Stones, Santana, Earth Wind & Fire, Muddy Waters. And of course Jim Reeves. Thank You to my parents for turning me on to an appreciation of timeless classics.
@@jamesfroberg3590 Reeves is under appreciated
Who gives a rats Azz
Waylon was amazing and Hank jr is the GOAT
RIP Charlie Watts. Thanks for the happy, amusing COUNTRY DRUMMIN!!!
Can you imagine if the stones did a country concert at the Opry?
Ronnie Wood's playing is what really makes this work.
yeah Keith is totally clueless he doesn't know what to do.
Keith is not Clueless here, he's riffing.
the one time
ImperialRadioYT what are you referring to
Just because Woody's playing well doesn't mean anyone needs to slag Keith off; it's not a war. Actually, playing country lead alongside a steely takes a fair bit of know-how and his Keithness is doing a fine job. They recruited Ron for his similarity to Keith and his character as well but what a bonus it was getting a good steely? I've loved his work on this instrument since "Sweet lady Mary" and "mandolin wind".
Love to hear great artists respecting one another. Well done.
Me, too!
I read many years ago (don't remember who wrote it) that rock'n'roll is considered "the white man's blues".
Exactly!!!
Simply stunning! Never mind out of their comfort zone, this was completely out of their genre and they absolutely nailed it.
Your kidding, right? RS has loved and done many country songs ... Not to mention country music is just slowed down rock music... same as the blues being transformed into heavy metal in a slowed down version
@@toyyoda3710, Nope, absolutely wasn't kidding but thanks for asking. Just curious, what songs of theirs are you considering to be country?
@@toyyoda3710 Well actually Rock would be a "faster" version of Country music since Rock originated from Country music fused with Blues...
@@toyyoda3710The Girl With Far Away Eyes is more country than the Nashville pop crap they play now.
Dead Flowers, Country Honk, Honky Tonk Women, No Expectations, Sweet Virginia, Dear Doctor. Stones country songs.
A country guitarist said of the Rollings Stones, “They were one of the five best rock bands and also one of the five best country bands.” I think he was on to something.
Well, the Stones' "Faraway Eyes," which was the B-side of "Miss You," was country if anything ever was.
the thing is they weren't doing it to be funny or making fun of the music....they enjoyed doing it and showed absolute respect for the sound, the song and Waylon and Bob and the TX Playboys.. The Stones... no matter their reputation with some people they are and always have been a class act
Amen!
absolutely!..and they're the Rolling Stones, they can do whatever they want.
Pure entertainment didn’t care that much for them when I was into R&R and back in the 60s
But have grown to love them over the years.
Theywere my wife’s favorite in the late 60s
We even have a small Shih Tzu dog named after mick Jagger
They were damn close to making fun of it and could have and it still would be cool in the sense that Dr. Hook was cool.
It came off as a goof!
Love the first line "This is a song we learned from WAYLON JENNINGS" RESPECT! from the Stones!
I was in the park that night. This was just an electric and magical moment-the shock of recognition that ran through the crowd was incredible. Sure, it’s ragged and under-rehearsed, but that wasn’t what mattered. It was a tribute to Bob, Waylon, and the Lone Star state and a chance to see a song they will never perform again.
Love your line ragged and unrehearsed, but it didn't matter. The audience loved not only mentioning Waylon, but Willie Nelson. To a man, the Rolling Stones appreciated those who came before them, are truly students of their music and that respect shines in this performance. Remember they wouldn't play an American TV show unless it was agreed that Howlin' Wolf did the opening for them.
If I didn't know better, I would say they have been playing country music forever. Now this is the state of Country Music today, the Rolling Stones are better than any country performer today. But I also believe any Rock N Roll fan will say the state of that music also from today doesn't measure up to what the Stones produced.
They have been. Listen to Beggars Banquet.
Good to see an English rock band acknowledge the immense talent and timeless music of Bob Wills and Waylon Jennings. How I yearn for real country music.

Yeehaw!
Check out on TH-cam Heidi Hauge, Heather Myles, Darrel Armstrong, Kirsten Dauggard, Shawn Diddy, Ben Haggard Olivia Harms Sara Storer, and Hoss Curtis. Like them? Look on Amazon and eBay for their music CDs. May have to a google search for each artist to get their direct website. May be able to get CDs that way.
I remember how much the Beatles loved Buck Owens' music.
Streets of Bakersfield was great
Even the Rolling Stones are more country than Luke Bryan, FGL, and the rest of those bro country music posers.
That's not saying very much. My father's from the Bronx, and HE'S more country than the people you mentioned!
And not an auto tuner within 1000 yards. Certainly can’t say that for Bro Country.
The Dead were more country than most of the crap put out these days. I understand that they even used a steel guitar.
Truer words never spoken
mickandtheboys.weebly.com/best-rolling-stones-country-songs.html
Got chills listening to this. This is why the Stones are the greatest rock band ever👍👍
More true to country roots than Nashville today. Great job.
You can't play country without Rock and Roll. But nowadays it's pop songs that pay, so it's pop song that play. The day that music died.
Yes indeed pedal steel and all
Yup! Keith Richards and the late great Gram Parsons (the pioneer of country rock) were best friends and it was Gram who (by Keith's own admission) opened the Stones up to country music. Keith and Mick actually gifted Wild Horses to Gram's band the Flying Burrito Brothers over a year before they recorded it themselves.
@@idicula1979 You've got that backwards. You can't play Rock & Roll without Country, which was around a lot sooner. There's been plenty of cross-pollination for sure, but without blues and country and soul already existing, rock would have never been born.
AMEN!!! Jamey Johnson's all we got left!!!
I'm impressed. You have to give them credit for doing a good job on a song way out of their wheelhouse.
Grandpaw 2511, they've played country for a long time. I just think it sounds odd with an English accent.
Great musicians can play anything
It’s not out of their wheel house. The Rolling Stones are a roots band. They play all styles including honky tonk.
It really isn't out of their wheelhouse, as Dead Flowers and Honky Tonk Women are country songs. Ronnie Wood has always played the pedal steel. IMHO. That being said I haven't heard the Waylon Jennings version.
@@henrycasten4889 . don't forget "Far Away Eyes".
Holy crap! The Stone's playing Waylon tribute to the fabulous Bob Wills. Life is good
When you're down in Texas there's no Elvis.
In Texas Bob Wills is still the king and will ALWAYS be the king.
Thank RS for recognizing that.
+zipper179 well then let's get a hay haw
BillVol Elvis is everywhere.
❤ Got to admit that was awesome!
Mick, Keith, Ronni ,Charlie, super good English country band ! Wow! I like ! & RIP Charlie !
The Stones have burned their name into immortality.
God this band is astounding. Their depth is something else. And they wear it all so lightly. I just love 'em.
Being a 51 year old native Texan and a lifelong Country, Hair Band and Stones fan, finding their recording of this made me a Forever Stones fan.
I thought exactly the same thing man, an excellent cover
John Public 53 same here
They choose was one of the greatest Texans of all-time to Ol'Waylon. Great choice
Me too!!! Love them all!!! Talent is talent, no matter what genre!!
@@vickibonilla4510 Exactly!
What a surpirse: the Rolling Stones playing a real country song, Ron Woods at pedal steel is great.
Pure brilliance!! And a great Tribute to Mr. Waylon Jennings!!
At 0:43, when Sir Mick invoked Waylon Jennings' name, a chill ran down my spine!
@@TheBrooklynbodine The same here!
Amazing Country Stones!!!
The Rolling Stones deserve to be in the Country Hall of Fame.
I think Waylon wouldn't mind this. The Stones had a lot of stones to do this. Thumbs up.
Agree. Waylon was all about people should play the music they want to play not the music other people expect them to play.
Never was a Rolling Stones fan. Until now.
Too bad, you let so much slip through your fingers.
How could you not be a Stones fan? That boggles the mind. Truly.
The Stones are the best country group to come out of England! Wild Horses is another good country song.
XOkie I agree 100%. The Stones have done several great country songs including Country Tonk and You Better Move On. Mick with The Chieftans did an EXCELLENT job on Long Black Veil.
Far away eyes.....
Yea definitely the best rock group ever!!!!
... "Grown Up Wrong", "Dear Doctor", "Prodigal Son"', "You Got The Silver", "Sweet Virginia" ... The Stones always made the odd excursion into country-oriented music and made it work. The late '60's was a time in their career when they really began to get into it when they recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Alabama. Too bad that Ricky Nelson was booed off the Madison Square Garden stage in 1971 while performing The Stones' "Country Honk". I think that The Stones' success was partly due to their never being purists with their music, although their long suit was always the blues.
I'm sorry that I can't comment so objectively about The Stones' country music because apparently country music generally is just not for me, with the exception of "Wild Horses" which I really love. I really tried but could never take to country music, and I've been trapped in a situation with more than enough exposure to it to develop a taste for it, but for some reason it never clicked for me. Thanks.
This band has so much class, they are simply the best.
Respect ! Well done Stones !!
I love this! No on-stage theatrics to hide a poor voice behind...just your voice and instruments so you gotta be good and they were. Love it!!
An Englishman signing country music, you got to love it.
The Rolling Stones have been doing country music for a long time . No Expectations, Girl with the Far Away Eyes,Let it Bleed just to name a few . The best band that ever was .
Heavily influenced by American Country and Blues music. When the stones did a lot of their country stuff people were saying they were doing parity and mocking country music….that is absolutely ridiculous on every single level of comprehension!!!
Yes, they have. They have a feel for it.
Sitting On A Fence, Dear Doctor, No Expectations, Factory Girl, You Got The Silver, Country Honk, Let It Bleed, Dead Flowers, Torn and Frayed, Sweet Virginia, Far Away Eyes (1968-1978)
They did a good job! I am seriously surprised!! Thank you, Mick and all the band, great playing.
Hope they do more country classics before they're gone!
Waylon laid it down and Keith picked it up. Music rolls on!!
Great job from this English band ... I'd say they have a great future in Western Swing. This band will go far - mark my words!
+Andrew Brennan Never make it big. No twin fiddlers.
Hahah! Exactly! Every good country song starts out with 2 taps on the fiddle!
What, no mandolin with the pedal steel?
***** Diude, are you Ray Charles's stunt double? You obviously didn't see the humor . Called the Greatest band in rock and roll but they'll never make it big playing shit-kicker songs. Because they don't need to.
They gave themselves only 6 months in '62.
Mick Jagger at his best, can't get enough of this song.
This has got to be the last surviving "British Invasion" Band,! This is especially true when you consider they have never broken up or retired, and they still have 3 out of 5 original members. Love them or hate them, you still have to give them kudos for still being able to rock it in their 70's.
Goosebumps!
Nailed it Stones so cool 😎 Bob Wills music pioneer. 😮😊thx
thats so cool, when musicians like them do something like that. its like paying tribute to waylon and the country genre. so cool!
Aaron Keil Not to mention the impact both Bob and Waylon had on music.
Bob Wills is smiling down no doubt!
When Sir Mick mentioned Waylon at 0:43, I swear a chill ran through me.
Sounded like you weren't the only one Maybe Ol' Waylon heard it too.
ksr9t Actually, Waylon died in 2002, and this was made in '05. I'm not being sarcastic. I really liked Waylon myself.
Gary Kerns I understood your comment. My point.. where ever Waylon is, I hoped he heard the applause when Mick said "Waylon Jennings" If I had a dime for every time I have listen to this song off "Waylon Live, I wouldn't need to go to work every day. LOL
me to man....damn!
@@TheBrooklynbodine This is actually from 1998. Waylon probably knew about this
They could have left right then and been forever heroes! Class action. Loved watching Keith watch steel player. Thanks Stones.🦇
That steel player is Ron Wood! Never saw him play the pedal steel guitar before this moment...
Did not know him but what a great moment.🦇
Amazing that the stones are covering Waylon Jennings! And to hear the pop the crowd makes when Waylons name is brought up is awesome!
Aaron McCarty, check out All Over Now by the Stones. It's a Bobby Womack song that Waylon covered, too.
I thought I was the only one that got a kick out of hearing Sir Mick invoke Waylon's name. I mentioned it in a post some years back. posting 2-11-23.
@@jeffduncan9140 Never knew Waylon covered that one. I knew there was a country version, though. John Anderson covered it about 40 years ago.
@@TheBrooklynbodine Waylon's cover, I would imagine, is probably closer to original than the Stones' is. However, I think I like the slightly faster Stones version better, probably because that's what I heard first.
Cool... very cool, thanks for that. Bend the knee to Bob Wills, Waylon, and to Texas.
Freaking Awesome!!!!!
R.I.P.
WAYLON JENNINGS🎸
BOB WILLS
RALPH MOONEY
THANKS FOR POSTING THIS VIDEO.
My head just exploded.
Pure happiness.. yeah!!
In his book “Life,” Keith said the Pedal Steel is a “heart breaker.” Ron Woods plays it exceptionally well !!
These ole rockers kill it!! More COUNTRY than any so-called country on the radio today!
Damned straight! I was going to say the same thing! Oh hell, Mick has ALWAYS had his country side! And God bless 'Ol Waylon!
Nashville pop on what USED TO BE Country music radio ain't Country. Guess alternative, pop, and rap had nowhere else to go so they took over Country radio.
You said it…..better country than anything currently out there.
There's still good country music being made by artists in Nashville.
They Do It Because They Can.
That's What Makes Them The Greatest Rock n Roll Band In The World. The Rolling Stones.
Jagger knows how to get the crowd to eat out of his hands.
Truly the best, nothing else will ever come close.
these guys are honorary Americans anyway! Bravo! 👏
LOL, the stones did some great country songs over the years.
Waylon did it better. But the Stones get a thumbs up just for having the balls to give it a shot. 👍
Woody is a hell of a pedal steel player so he gives the Stones a leg up on country music.
any musician can play with any other musician and style its all notes and groves to them :)
He may be a good steel player, but Moon was awesome.
my uncle loved Bob Wills...Mick doesnt sound authentic here....should have stuck with Far Away Eyes....Mick was better at this in the seventies.....and the sixties....aaaaah haaah!!!!
Shirley Ford you got a right to your opinion..I listened to Waylons live version and his vocals were not that great ..sadly Waylons voice live wasnt that good after he was about 45,his band was really good and basically carried his diminishing performances as the years went by......furthermore Mick being able to sound authentic ls amazing considering he has a English accent and being live at age 61 at this performance is amazing .Dont get me wrong i love ole Waylon but his Live performances sadly had peaked and were in decline by his forties..Jagger on the other hand will be 75 july 2018 and The Rolling Stones in concert are still Excellent and still drawing Huge crowds getting Top prices .
The Stones were always very appreciative of what I call Roots Music (Country, Folk, Blues, etc.). So were many of their comtemporaries like Clapton, Skynyrd, Southern Rock in general, Joe Cocker, Townsend. etc. That's what makes great musicians. To appreciate all music. Today's so called "artists" don't do that. Thus, they lack emotion, feeling, heart, and soul. They pretty much just go through the motions. Care more about their physical appearance and "look" than the music itself. If they DO appreciate music before them it's usually 80s rap "artists" or 90s country or something newer like that.
Just proves that the Rolling Stones are the greatest band ever. Name someone else that can rock your ass off, then completely change into an authentic sounding country band for a one-off. Nobody.

Lmao. Agreed.

I was skeptical but it is better than I anticipated
This was awesome just to see such a great band pay homage to Bob Wills and Waylon. Love it. Much respect.
Why we love Waylon and the Stones. In a recorded interview, Marty Stuart told about Keith Richards meeting George Jones and how Keith was like a starstruck teenage kid when he was introduced to George.
They did a song together on the Bradley Barn sessions
[Darling] Say Its Not You.
@@ksr9t Huh?
@@edthesecond thats the song Keith and George sang on the Bradley Barn session Actually comment was meant for jleed. Seemed to be more knowledgeable concerning why they met.
@@ksr9tI wasn't showing off my knowledge. I was making a point about Keith Richards' respect for country music in general and people like Waylon Jennings and George Jones in particular. I stopped playing those 'I know more than you' games when I left college.
Rock on!
The Stones played this song for one reason “R-E-S-P-E-C-T”
Gotta hand it to the Stones: it took a lot of guts to sing that song in Texas as a British rock group. Kudos to Mick and the boys!
The Stones are a very serviceable country band!
Waylonized!!!!!!!!
Much respect...especially for the proper steel guitar!
Wow... this is something. Fifth generation Texan here. Didn’t know Mick & his Stones like our legend, Bob Wills & the Texas Playboys. Bob was the king of Texas Dancehalls back in the day. Him, Ray Price & Willie. Later, George Strait.
Love it! So great to hear Mick and the Rolling Stones sing Bog Wills Is Still The King. Ireland's King of Country Music, Big Tom (McBride) has often told me in interviews that the Rolling Stones are his favourite rock band. Now I know why .....
This is the best experience I've ever heard from Mick & the Stones. I love it. 👍❤👍❤👍❤😃😃
Being out of your element, but putting on a good show, has got to be one of the greatest feelings.
Always liked the Stone’s when they went country. Some GIrls album was so refreshing.
Gotta respect any band that can step out of the zone like this and pull it off with aplomb...Ron and Mick carrying the load here. Not only a great band but top-shelf entertainers...not always the same thing.
