the official tribute album to this pioneering country outlaw, whose career included more than 20 years on the RCA roster. Waylon’s wife, Jessi Colter, has authorized the 16-song collection and will contribute a new version of "Storms Never Last," a song she wrote and recorded with Waylon. The album is slated for release in April 2003.

Other participating artists include: Brooks & Dunn ("I Ain’t Living Long Like This"); Kenny Chesney with Kid Rock ("Luckenbach, Texas"); Sara Evans with Deana Carter ("Mammas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys"); Andy Griggs ("This Time"); Ben Harper ("Waymore’s Blues"); Metallica lead singer James Hetfield ("Don’t You Think This Outlaw Bit’s Done Got Out of Hand"); Alison Krauss ("You Asked Me To"); John Mellencamp ("Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way"); Pinmonkey ("Are You Ready For The Country"); Travis Tritt ("Lonesome, On’ry and Mean"); Phil Vassar with Rob Thomas ("A Good Hearted Woman"); Hank Williams, Jr. ("Only Daddy That’ll Walk the Line"); and Dwight Yoakam ("Stop the World [And Let Me Off]"). In addition, Waylon and Jessi’s son, Shooter Jennings, brings the talent of his band, Stargunn, to his father’s "I’ve Always Been Crazy." The album will also feature one of Waylon’s last recordings, a song called "The Dream."

hoi boardies,

waylon jennings : live (expanded)-2003


cduniverse kunde kann ich nur beitreten:

"this collection of songs are loaded with country and rock hits of the era. the current talent pool in nashville has been left in the dust by a sound that is 27 years old with no signs of anybody being able to challenge with a better sound "

AMG gibt 5 star und meint:

"BMG Heritage issued Waylon Live: The Expanded Edition, which more than doubled its length to 42 songs over two discs. Most concerts don't last that long and it is true that this expanded Waylon Live isn't taken from just one gig; it was taken from three concerts in late September 1974, one show at the Western Place in Dallas on the 25th, and two dates at the Opry House in Austin on the 26th and 27th. Simply put, Jennings was on fire these three days, at the peak of his powers as a performer, turning out music that was rebelliously rowdy and sweetly poignant. These shows were also at a crucial time, just as he was reaching the summit of his creativity, and this new expanded track listing has him looking back ten years while living thoroughly in the moment. There's a little bit of everything here: hits and album tracks, covers of classic country and current rock hits, newly written songs and tunes he's never sung before, songs recorded for RCA in the '60s, and songs yet to be released. It covers a hell of a lot of ground, but there's not a bad choice or performance here, .........These performances are as good as Jennings ever got, which means it's tremendous and one of the rare cases where the album truly deserves such an expanded treatment. Absolutely essential "
