My mother played "The Outlaws" album over and over and over when I was growing up- Willie, Waylon, Jessi Colter. To this day, this, along with Chris Stapleton they are the only country I can listen to. All other country music is crap. And my mother always used to tell me "you have to be crazy- it keeps you from going insane."
Not just “an outlaw” he was the first outlaw, his album “Wanted: the Outlaws” is widely considered the first ever Outlaw Country album starting one of the largest country sub genres that still continues to this day
Thank you for playing Waylon! Love this song, it's the theme tune to my life. And it's not just Country.....it's OUTLAW COUNTRY! That guitar riff you were digging, that's Waylon playing his beloved 1953 Fender Telecaster. He was a superb guitarist.
Waylon, singlehandedly is responsible for me listening to some Country. I call it KICK ASS COUNTRY or OUTLAW COUNTRY. Loved this man. He did the theme to DUKES OF HAZARD television show, too. Watching now.
Waylon done his honky tonk heroes * on the midnight special TV program back in 1974 although very raw and on the edge the song was a revolutionary song which changed the whole concept of Nashville assembly line music, try that one for size,
Waylons my favorite of all time, he really introduced a new style and featured the steel guitar a lot with Ralph Mooney. Lots and lots of great songs from this dude, one cool cat.
ive always been crazy but its kept me from going insane has always been one of my favorite lines in music. glad to see you reacting to waylon one of my favorites after you reacting to my alltime favorite ac/dc. react to aint living long like this by waylon its great
Waylon is an absolute legend. You should check out his son Shooter Jennings. His song Outlaw You is a direct shot at todays pop country and also a history lesson of how his dad broke through the Nashville scene when they didn't want him
First video I’ve ever seen of you and I love it!!! Anyone that looks at lyrics while they’re listening… is awesome in my book. Not only that but, you listening to Waylon Jennings. 👍👍👍
Waylon is my favorite artist across all genres. He has so much good music!! Rose In Paradise is a great one. ✌️✌️ Biz! Keep great reactions coming brotha!
One of the original outlaws. Catalog is huge you get into it, I will make a prediction you will dive deep. You won't be able to escape the back stories and you will be wanting more. Case in point the song "AIN'T THIS OUTLAW STUFF DONE GOT OUT OF HAND. Every word of the song truth he lived it most of his songs are like that ran with a bunch back in the day that came back years later and made a group called The highwayman went on tour 30 years after they ran together way before included Johnny Cash Willie Nelson Kris Kristofferson the original country outlaws they lived it The honky tonks traveling in a bus going on across the country and all the things that happened while they was doing it byand throw in the middle finger up to the country establishment the whole time they did it pure legends
Listen and watch his live version. His true expression comes out. He went to Nashville and they ran him out of town. 6 years later they begged him to come back. He did it his way. That is what true artists do. Write their own. Play it. Record it. By todays standards he is a mythical creature.
First time here. Just stumbled across ur channel and saw u reacting to Waylon. WAYLON!!! i couldn't subscribe fast enuf, Bro. Add one more to ur members list
This is my 1st videos of yours, new sub now. Interesting story Waylon has told during interviews: he had a huge coke habit. Back in the 80's when his youngest son, Shooter, was about 5 years old, he told his wife he'd quit for a month. After it had been a couple weeks, his son asked him to sit & color with him. He colored with Shooter for close to half an hour. His boy told him told him something like "Daddy you've never stayed still this long to play with me". He hollared to his wife "I'm done!". She was singing Hallelujah as she flushed his hidden stash down the toilet. Willie Nelson cut his braids off in support of his sobriety. Many blessings to you, Sir!
I have always listened to Waylon I am 53 I first started listening to him in 1974 when I was a kid. I call Waylon's music the hard Rock of country. When Metallica plays one of his songs well that says it all James Hetfield loved him
I grew up in Austin & dad loved Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson & Johnny Cash. They were considered Outlaw country, because they didn't follow the Nashville rules of country at the time. Willie moved away to Austin & they grew their hair long & smoked weed. Please listen to "Good hearted woman", "Momma's don't let your babies grow up to be Cowboys" & "Luckenbach, Texas". Outlaw County is really the best country. These guy's later joined up & became the Highwaymen for a couple of albums. But back in the 70's they all shared each others songs & recorded them & sang together, so only made since to do a few albums together as the Highwaymen.
He was one of the country music outlaws along with Willie Nelson, kris Kristofferson and Johnny Cash they started the outlaw sound you should check out his songs this outlaw things done got out of hand and just a good ole boy “the theme from the tv show The Dukes of Hazard
Waylon always walked the line between country & rock. Unfortunately most of his rock stuff rarely got mainstream exposure. I highly recommend checking out his cover of Three Dog Night’s Never Been To Spain, The Rolling Stone’s Honky Tonk Woman & Neil Diamond’s Sweet Caroline.
I love your reaction. You was feeling every moment of this song. Great choice. If you ever do Waylon again try Drinking and dreaming. But honestly you can't go wrong with any Waylon song.
Waylon and wife Jessi Colter were and always will be the best. Waylon went through alot and with his wife's prayers saved him. But diabetes nailed him in 2002. Sad, Sad day. The best voice I've ever heard, it's like his own tone, haven't heard anyone close to it except in son Shooter sometimes. Miss that man. He was good. And he loved women, you can tell in his music.
There is a live vid. Him and his wife Jessy Collter were absolutely great together. Jesse caught up to him after he got out of jail and changed his life. One of the 4 that were called The Highway Men all half Outlaw type . You can check them out.
Dan McDonagh A little clarification. Waylon was never convicted of anything. I suppose he had to "check in" at the jail when the feds tried to bust him for cocaine, but the charges were dropped.
Waylon is the quintessential for Outlaw Country. No country music these days has this caliber of songwriting. Also, if anyone likes this, take a look at Waylon’s life. The man was all about music. He was rooted in country but was a fan of it all and you can tell.
I LOVE my Country music!! That being said, while Waylon is most definitely a long standing and beloved figure in Country.... he's a bit before my time. lol! I still jam with it though!! The live challenges are so much fun!! If you're going live on Sunday let's do another one! Even if it's just for fun (no prize/request involved!)... You rock Biz!! :)
@@DK-wr6qs Dude, I was SEVERAL years from being even a "twinkle" in my parent's eyes when Waylon released his first album. As a matter of fact, my parents were just YOUNG teenagers themselves when he released his first album!! PLUS, I had a very crappy association to Country music in my childhood, so I didn't want anything to do with it! That being said, what I should've wrote was.... Waylon was way before my love for Country music began, so I'm not terribly into and or familiar with his catalogue... Fortunately, and despite the bad memories I have that are tied to older Country music.... I fell in LOVE with it in the late 90's and never looked back!! It brings me great joy now! Also, I don't think we've ever discussed our ages so I'm not sure how old you are you fool!! lol!! ;) ;) EDIT: I just looked it up.... Waylon released his first album in 1964.... my Mother herself was only 11 years old.... SOOOOO, yes, Waylon was a WAY BEFORE my time!! lol!!! :)
@@DK-wr6qs Bahaha!! Don't worry... you didn't corrupt me!! lol!! I may be a little younger than you guys... BUT.... I have an old WISE soul!! And, I've given birth to a couple kids, so I'm far from "innocent"!! It's all good!! However.... I'm definitely fine with never hearing another juvenile Steel Panther song like "Gloryhole" ever again!! lol!! ;) ;)
Something that gives Waylon ultimate cred. He was Buddy Holly’s bass player. He lost a coin toss that put him on a freezing tour bus and kept him away from dying in a plane crash when he was 19.
That beat is actually Waylons Trademark sound with the base drums guitar and steel guitar has a unique funkyness to it you usually don't find in that era of country music.
Waylon's career actually had several different phases before inventing the sound of Outlaw Country. In the early sixties he recorded a few singles for the Trend label, then moved to L.A. when he landed a record contract for A & M Records in 1963. He made only one record for A & M, parting ways with the label due to pressures they were putting on him to come up with more pop-oriented material. By '65 he moved to Nashville and had a string of top 100 singles through the end of the sixties including, "Only Daddy That'll Walk the Line", "Stop the World (And Let Me Off)", and "Walk On Out Of My Mind".
Waylon played bass guitar for Buudy Holly on the tour when Buddy died...so he has a rock background...he can be very cool Try The Wild Ones...fabulous.
Country music has never been my thing; but, Waylon was a bad ass "outlaw" country music performer. He smoked weed & didn't give two shits about who was ok with it or not! I ALWAYS respected him for that!
Yessir! Waylon is THE face of the country music outlaw movement. He literally and figuratively flipped Nashville record execs the bird. He was gonna play HIS music, and their wasn't a damn thing Nashville could do about it. Willie Nelson, Johnny Paycheck, David Allan Coe, and others were part of the movement in varying degrees. If you look up Outlaw Country in the dictionary, you'll see Waylon Gat Damn Jennings face.
I’ve read that Waylon contacted Ronnie Van Zant, and he and Skynyrd were going to do a collaboration. Sadly, that didn’t happen, not with the original band, anyway. That would’ve been awesome.
Mann, everyone wanna say Waylon was Outlaw Country... but tbh, he combined and bridged country and rock into one amazing genre... Not nearly enough credit goes towards this pioneer!
Check out Waylon's step grandson, rapper, Struggle Jennings, he said Waylon had a big influence on his life. Listen to Struggle Jennings with Caitlynne Curtis in the song "God We Need You Now"
I got 3 songs that I can't decide which is my favorite,this is 1.I could bore you with Waylon facts,He is my favorite of all time.He was the first artist to fight for artistic control in Nashville after "The Nashville Sound"took control in the late 50'sthrough the early 70's,winning the right to to use his own producers,musicians and studios.He was part of the first platinum album out ofNashville,Wanted The Outlaws and the first Platinum solo album Ol'Waylon.He was never known as a prolific songwriter,but wrote many of his biggest hits,including this 1.His song Don't You Think This Outlaw Bit (Done Got Out Of Hand)is a true story about the night he got busted by the feds for a pound of cocaine,great song.I really admire him for his determination to get off drugs,by 83 he had a 1000$ a day drug habit.When he decided to quit he was asked if he was going to go to rehab,he replied"Why Betty Ford didn't get me on this crap,how she gonna get me off"and went cold turkey with just his wife and son's help.Anything he did I liked,but I would like to request Freedom To Stay,which I've never seen reacted to on TH-cam
I always think " I can say I never intanitioly hurt anyone just means his actions have led to people getting getting hurt not not physically but mentally and emotionally
My father and his many brothers were Northern Maine Badasses. Drinking, fighting, classic car racing, hell raising outlaws....Dukes of Hazard not tamed down for family television viewing. I grew up with Waylon played regularly played in our house. It was truly "Back in The Day".....to which Only GenX can Rightfully use that phrase.
Waylon was the real deal. Honest, blunt, tough as nails, but "the nicest guy I ever met out on the road" (according to Hank Jr.).
Waylon was The Man.
This my personal favorite Waylon tune. It's so relatable. Waylon is my all time favorite artist.
Did hank really do it this way? is great too.
"Are you sure Hank done it this way". Waylon's homage to Hank Williams. Priceless.
Waylon was a true outlaw.
He was one tough son of a gun, but gave us legendary music!
and thats the name of that tune!!!!1
@@allanjones1680 I love that quote!
I know where it came from...good play!
@@deannacrownover3 : )
The main thing to know about ol Waylon is he is the greatest of all time period!
My husband's theme song! Waylon's catalogue is worth looking at. He was an "outlaw" country artist.
My mother played "The Outlaws" album over and over and over when I was growing up- Willie, Waylon, Jessi Colter. To this day, this, along with Chris Stapleton they are the only country I can listen to. All other country music is crap.

Great reaction, and thanks for listening to my hero Waylon.
He was the Coolest Kat in Country . Original, genuine and
raw performer.
There's country and then there Waylon!! What can I say........ I love the following he has!!
Waylon done his honky tonk heroes * on the midnight special TV program back in 1974 although very raw and on the edge the song was a revolutionary song which changed the whole concept of Nashville assembly line music, try that one for size,

I highly HIGHLY recommend Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way. My absolute favorite song of his and imo his greatest song.
One of the only people I know that quit cocaine cold turkey no rehab!!
Now I mostly listen to heavy metal and hard rock music. Waylon is my go to country he is awesome. He makes it look easy when he is on stage singing.
Waylon was the best, ever. Period.
That music is like a train coming down the track you've got to move
ive always been crazy but its kept me from going insane has always been one of my favorite lines in music. glad to see you reacting to waylon one of my favorites after you reacting to my alltime favorite ac/dc. react to aint living long like this by waylon its great

Waylon is my favorite artist across all genres. He has so much good music!! Rose In Paradise is a great one. ✌️✌️ Biz! Keep great reactions coming brotha!
I love Waylon . All of the Outlaws of country are good.
Waylon was THE MAN in the 70’s and 80’s. Every woman I knew wanted a piece of Waylon
Waylon was my dad’s age and I was mad crushing on him since I was a little girl
I love Waylon, you should play Billy Joe Saver. He was an a crazy sob. He has a history with Waylon. Georgia on a Fast Train or Live Forever.
LOVE this song.

Those 4 recorded/performed as The Highwaymen.
Hank Jr played just as big a part in the outlaw movement as did a few others.
Yes I know that
Don't forget David Allen Coe, one of the best of the Outlaw Country artists!
Waylon always walked the line between country & rock. Unfortunately most of his rock stuff rarely got mainstream exposure. I highly recommend checking out his cover of Three Dog Night’s Never Been To Spain, The Rolling Stone’s Honky Tonk Woman & Neil Diamond’s Sweet Caroline.
A true outlaw country legend! Much love, Waylon!!
Outlaw Country! Waylon leading the pack!

The 1st album (vinyl record) I ever bought for myself was Waylon Jennings greatest hits in 1978. I wore that record out.

Grew up listening to Waylon, my favorite from my childhood is I recall a Gypsy woman
Known as "Waymore" by his inner circle, as he could take on way more challenges, excitement, drugs, women, trouble, than anyone else.

Keep it weird , Keep it Unique. Never Give Up, Never Surrender
Billy rock
try his song "don't you think this outlaw bit's done got out of hand".
The actual title is outlaw sh!t
Waylon was Buddy Holly's bassist when the plane crashed. He gave up his seat to Richie Valens.
Waylon Jennings the original outlaw country going against Nashville
If you like Waylon check out Waymores blues. It's my favorite Waylon song. He was an absolute musical genius!
Gotta do Colter wall - Devil wears a suit and tie live at original 16 !!
Check out Waylon's step grandson, rapper, Struggle Jennings, he said Waylon had a big influence on his life. Listen to Struggle Jennings with Caitlynne Curtis in the song "God We Need You Now"
