The story behind the song

Waylon Jennings was a pioneer of the outlaw movement in country music, starting with guitar at age eight and forming his first band, the Texas Longhorns, at 14. He worked as a performer and DJ before Buddy Holly arranged his first recording session and hired him to play bass. Though he later signed with RCA Victor in 1965, he had been honing his craft for years in various bands and as a solo artist. This song, appearing on his "Early Years" release, captures a raw, formative period for an artist who would become a country legend. Playing it feels like stepping into the roots of an iconic sound.
