Over the years Waylon Jennings has been one of the best vocalists country music ever had. Along with Paycheck, Jones, Twitty, and several others, and he was also a great stylist. Single handedly inventing a subgenre of country music that is imitated even today. So take that voice, and that style and put it to Hank Williams's lyrics and what to you get? A country music masterpiece that's what. Waylon Sings Hank Williams is a true masterpiece. Country music fans will probably be familiar with most of the tracks on this CD. This is truly a touching tribute CD as Waylon puts his own stamp upon Hank's classics. Showing both his love of the songs and songwriter, and the influence they both had on him. Waylon Sings Hank Williams is an intimate, enjoyable Waylon Jennings album. Released more than twenty years after it was recorded. Track List 1. Jambalaya (On The Bayou) Release Notes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outlaw Country pioneer Waylon Jennings started out in music just a few years after hard living caught up to legend Hank Williams in the back of a Cadillac at the age of 29. The influence of the latter on the former was obvious not merely in style, but in the manner in which both vanguards forged rebellious paths. On Waylon Sings Hank Williams, Jennings pays tender tribute to many of the master's classics such as "Jambalaya" and "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry," along with lesser known tracks like "Why Should We Try Anymore."
