This is the reason a lot of people dont like country. Then they happen to hear Webb Pierce or Carl Smith and then they wonder why all this crap is even called country.
It must have been such an honor for Travis to perform with Waylon, one of his idols. I really miss the old cable network TNN (The Nashville Network). It was a great showcase for country artists. I have seen Travis in concert 5 times and he still mentions how much he admired Waylon. He often performs a Waylon cover tune in his shows. He also performs a Skynyrd tune or two. Travis is such a class act, and one of a kind. See him live if you can, you won't regret it.
@jdmeyerscountry i agree 100% his style wasn't flashy like about 90 of guitar players he had a great tone and you could pick him out in a room full of these so called pickers i've been saying it for years the guy was and still is the standard of what an outlaw should be case closed.
I never understood why Jigger Bridges was playing guitar for Waylon during this time period. I love his bass playing but his guitar playing was weak...even compared to Travis Tritt....who in the last filmed concert of Waylon does almost a note for note re-enactment....does a decent solo here...but Waylon himself was an amazing guitar player. There's just nobody like him. A lot of us copy him but he's the originator of a style unlike any other player.
" aeroshine Waylon, I guess as an elder, you are obligated to go with the respectable look. Although I don't like the trimmed head of hair on you, the suit looks good & the music is good which is all that matters!
Unconditional love always, Whoop Whoop!!!! RIP 3 months ago "
Yeah, I liked him better "shaggy looking"
Wow! look how young Travis was in this, this must be an older clip.
waylon, willie, merle ,david allen ,john cash, there arent a whole lot of outlaw music left but got to give it to travis tritt, jamey johnson too, at least they are real not like this new shit thats coming along
Damn I miss waylon. Country music is and has gone to hell these days because they aren't real. Waylon was able to do it his way, stick to his guns,...and made it known that if people didn't like it they could kiss his ass. Even with that stance he was one of the classiest country-western singers ever. Who's gonna fill their shoes indeed. R.I.P. waylon.
Waylon, I guess as an elder, you are obligated to go with the respectable look. Although I don't like the trimmed head of hair on you, the suit looks good & the music is good which is all that matters!
I heard Waylon say, once, that what he couldn't understand about the new "Country" singers was that they all sounded exactly the same - sang the same kind of music, same phrasing, same voices, nothing distinctive. He had that damned straight. He made mistakes, but he ended up a good man, and I miss him.
This is so great, what a fantastic dance number it is. All the solos by the different players and those two pianos are out of sight and Travis and Waylon jamming on the guitars at the end. WOW!! thanks for the upload.
I've probably said this before, more than once, but it bears repeating again. All Waylon's work gives full space and range to the instrumentalists - even his. Dozens of his vids feature extended solo work by Mooney, Albright, an harmonicist I don't know the name of, and here we have a lead picker I also cannot identify.. WJ's total body of work (to me) surpasses that of willie, Merle, Buck, Johnny or anyone else. I kinda like Dwight, but he aint caught up yet.
waylon you were the best ever ....my mama has a tattoo of him on her arm after his death she went back & had the date put under it ...named my oldest brother after him
Jamey Johnson does some good Waylon covers...I did TT too, both awesome singers, and travis can pick...I agree New Country is a sham produced for young women, give me my outlaws back...
Tritt is as close to Waylon as it gets. Country music and most of the other ass clowns (i.e Miranda Lambert) suck these days. Murder has been commited on Music Row. Greats like Tritt have been replaced by Jimmy Buffet wannabes like chesney and company. It is sad, Shooter Jennings and other great people didn't even have a chance at so called 'country music'
That seems sad... but Waylon was never supposed to have a chance either. He had to fight for everything he wanted to do. So, we just need to find someone who will stick to their guns and fight Nashville...
yep.shooter, hank III, josh williams, old crow medicine show, the list goes on and on... thank goodness for the internet fuk 98% of the trash on radio
I really enjoy Wyalon and Travis tritt singing together. They do the same duet on Waylon's last concert at the Ryman
(The WAYMORE Blues band). Travis Tritt does such a great job on Waylon's music. I wish he would sing more of it and keep Waylon's music alive. Travis Tritt is so talented. DOn't seem to hear much about him these days. Did he turn 45 and get kicked out of Nashville or just usurped by Keney Chesney, Alan Jackson, and other new singers?
Waylon, You'LL always be remembered as one of the worlds greatest country icons. Waylon, you haven't really gone, because your music will be here for ever.
The Only singer that can Star Struck Tritt lol Travis looks like he is Singing with God himself lol And he may very well be. No One Has ever been able to touch Waylon`s voice ever.
Yes, Travis is a good match for Waylon, but not as good as the rest of the Highwaymen were. Waylon's voice has no peer. As Kristofferson said, "the best there has ever been" His range is fantastic. Listen to this video without looking at it and you will sure hear the difference.
I'vwe watched this video several times and love it. I wish they could have done more duets together. TT and Waylon also do the same song on Waylon's Never Say Die cd and DVD. It is great too and not to be missed. Ol Waylon, you were the best. Maybe TT will sing more of your songs.
Waylon has in my opinion the best country voice ever just so original not twangy like everything you hear now,altho i do like travis tritt w3aylon sings effortlessly...
At the time, Travis looked so small and insignificant against the great waylon, but now Travis had made a real name for himself. Goes to show who you learn from reflects later, way to go Waylon for teaching Travis to be a great performer !
Smokin Twang! Thats from a weekly tv show Walon had in the 90's. I think there were about 4 or 5 shows, with a diffrent guest each week. This song sticks in my head like it was yesterday ! Thanks ! Check out my Waylon Portrait guitar from this time at .. roofologist dot com ,its worth the look, I promise
yes ! it sure was as i listend to him and the band in TORONTO ONTARIO in the 70 tys . him and tommy hunter , but dont know were he is at now . THOMAS . doo you ?
