This Country Legend Was A Handsome Young ManWhat He Looks Like Now, WOW Waylon Jennings is considered a top ten-country artist of all time according to Billboard. I have to agree with them. Jennings has been playing music since he was 8 years old and performed with his first band when he was 12 years old. The band was called The Texas Longhorns. For years Jennings worked at a radio station. There he was able to record many songs and become familiar with all kinds of music. He would always play 2 hours of classic country, 2 of new, and then 2 of anything he felt like playing. Jennings was loved as a DJ. Jennings is most known for Outlaw Country. He said that Nashville had too many restrictions. He said, They wouldnt let you do anything. You had to dress a certain way: you had to do everything a certain way. They kept trying to destroy me. I just went about my business and did things my way. You start messing with my music, I get mean. Jennings had a experience as a producer and knew what it took to allow musicians to do their best work. Nashville was not doing that and so he had to begin Outlaw country. Jennings has won countless awards. He has won a Grammy, CMA, ACM, and CMT award. He has also been inducted into Hollywoods RockWall. That is a huge achievement for any country artist and Jennings is joined with Cash, Nelson, and others. Jennings also received a Lifetime Achievement Award in 2007 from the Nashville Songwriters Festival. He deserved it and should get a lifetime award from the Grammys. Jennings has worked with countless musicians and has been well respected. Do you love his music?
