Im 30 years old... I saw Willie on Larry King Live a few months ago and it woke me up to how beautiful country music can be... I recently got into Waylons music.... This guy was a true legend! I wish I appreciated this genre much earlier!!! I have become fascinated by the Highwaymen!!!! Musics execs should be ashamed by the "talent" they make mainstraam and more shameful = the graceful singers they reject!!!
@DrVegasIII I been listnen to Waylon since I was 7 or 8...and Im 50 now..
And as far as what shit comes outa Trashville these days it makes me wanna puke..I wont allow the pop-country to be played in my house, Id rather be dead...
I love ol' Waylon but this is weak. I'm guessing the song is new to him. Anyway, another of Neil Diamonds great one's is a song called "Solitary Man". Look it up.
Comparin these singers and musicians to todays music everybody with half of a brain will recognize the incredible difference in musical and lyrical quality. As well I find shockin how superficial todays music business has become..it´s hardly about voice & quality of sound anymore but about how high you wear your skirt....
I saw Waylon in concert about 15 years ago. Best concert I've seen before or since... amazing rapport with the audience, what a phenomenal entertainer!!
Love the Hammond. Love the velour suits. Love some of the awfulness of the stage set - the huge collar Waylon has. Love the drum fill crescendo after the first bridge. So crisp. Turn it up! Anyway, I think this is really good stuff - I'm a huge fan of early Waylon. I think he looked down on this part of his career, but I think he wasn't just satisfied with being a huge country star, he really had a statement. But regardless, I think this is fantastic - Neil Diamond could write a tune.
I love this comment ocduff! I like the early Way stuff too. He just wanted to do other things and the 70's were ready for it. I think it was more Richie's idea to be rock and roll. And wow did it work!
This "shite" is what made his music different from everyone else's. His background in 50s rock and roll affected every song he ever did, and made him who he was later on.
@andy16666 He was and still is in a class by himself. Just like Orbison, Waylon has a voice and a style that is one of a kind. You're absolutely right about the influence of his Rock and Roll background. He was one of Buddy Holly's Crickets. Just missed that ill-fated plane ride.
Waylon could interpret songs like no one else. He made them his own. He did the same with Gentle on My Mind, Sweet Caroline, Music Man and many others.
A Neil Diamond song, well done.

Get a clue! As Waylon once said: "I won't record a song that I'll not be able to sing at every concert for the rest of my life".
