| "...Lord, I hope you never do." That soft-spoken throw-away line at the end of "You Ask Me To" still send shivers after 30 years. Not to mention Moon's steel (and dobro too?). |

| Everything from the Pre-Outlaw era. My parents took me to see E.T. in about 1967 when Jack Greene, Jack Drake, Cal Smith Buddy Charleton, and Steve Chapman were the Troubadors and of course I was very impressed. But what really "blew me away" was the opening act, Waylon Jennings. I will never forget that wonderful set. He did "Silver Ribbons", "Green River", "That's What You Get For Lovin' Me", "Nashville Rebel" and many others. That music absolutely inspired me for a lifetime. What a talent he was!! |

That would be "The Hunger".

her beauty was enough to drive men wild."
Waylon was an original. |

Unless I'm wrong, I don't think Days of Sand and Shovels ever appeared on an album.
I know it was out as a single around 1969 because I have the 45.
Those who haven't heard much pre-outlaw
Waylon might not care for it's lush production, but to me its one of his most moving songs. Is it on any of the box sets? |

Another of my favorites from the pre outlaw era is "Cedartown Georgia". And BTW, "Day's of Sand and Shovels" is on the RCA L.P., The Best of Waylon Jennings.

MacArthur Park is on the Waylon's Box Set titled "Journey-Six Strings" released in 1999. Go to www.cdnow.com and enter Waylon Jennings in the artist box. You'll find a huge selection of Waylon's CD's just scroll through and you'll find the Box Set I'm referring to. |

I've seen many good titles here but one that I like that seems to be forgotten is one written by Harlen Howard called " The Chokin' Kind".
He also had a great version of Carl Belew's " Stop The World And Let Me Off"
