Waylon Jennings


Been listening to "Wanted - The Outlaws." This is one of my top ten favorite albums. Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Jessi Colter, Tompall Glaser - if you don't know this album go and look for it - if you have this album play it again. I don't really know much of Waylon Jennings' work - but he is so superb on this album I really need to dig deeper. The above photo, while comic, is also a sad comment on his condition at certain times in his life ("...lovable losers, and no account boozers...")
