Ha ha, love it! I got a chance to work with Waylon in the late 80s. Still like his version better, but gotta give kudos to The Rolling Stones. Very entertaining!
I am an old fan of the Stones and Waylon and an old dj. This video is incredible. I only wish I could have seen this concert. Kudos for putting this on Utube
Although a ROCKER in 75, my stepdad had the single 45 of Waylon's. I was 16 then& in between SABBATH,ZEPPELIN,BAD CO.,ZZ,FOGHAT,MONTROSE,AEROSMITH,SKYNYRD,B.O.C.,NAZARETH,B.T.O......I took a strange but intense liking to WAYLON&that song! Seems like it was live(PRETTY SURE) LOOONG time ago! Anyway 2or3 yrs. later the "OUTLAWS ALBUM" BLEW UP and THANKFULLY helped to merge rock and country. Of course there were others ,before&after,alot of credit to spread fersure! NO BETTER PLACE TXS! STONESREPAY
Funny how all those British rockers loved our 50's/60's rock and country musicians.. I guess back when they were starting out guys like Waylon, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash etc were their rebels that rubbed the British snobs the wrong way :D
Give em credit for doing this , but Ronnie although a great guy hasn't really got past a first week beginners level on the pedal steel guitar , its a very difficult thing to play though, very very difficult .
It's nice to see The Stones show Hoss respect.I think it was classy but i never would have dreamed The Stones would have done this one.Great post thanks
Sorry- Ron Wood was really lame on steel. Terrible intonation, and hangs out on the pedal down position. Rank beginner steel player. Other than that, I applaud them for playing this tune.
wow ronnie on pedal steel! Way cool! The stones have always had a tad bit of country influence to their music to bad ol waylon and gram parsons r no longer with us...... rock on cosmic american music!
Bunch of geriatrics would be hard put to reach the second round of a talent contest on the end of Clacton pier.
