Marty Stuart Way Out West: A Country Music Odyssey

2017 Grammy Exhibit

[@bassmangotdbluz3547]

I believe Marty Stuart will be remembered centuries after he's gone. He's always pertinent, even when being nostalgic. He personifies the American Spirit in his Faith, his Life and his Music. God Bless Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives !!!

[@TheEaglewoman2]

Well Said!

[@stevemason5173]

I could not have found the words to say your comment any better at all. An outstanding comment about Marty!!!

[@josephbaca6372]

Totally

[@juiceboxhero31]

Everyone realizes this man is a living breathing encyclopedia of country music, right? A LIVING legend...all hail Marty Stuart and his Fabulous Superlatives!

[@tomtom6319]

The country music community should be extremely grateful to Marty for keeping this alive

[@owenwilberforce6138]

Thanks Marty for this historic lesson in the history of California country. I was fortunate enough to see Rose Maddox at a Fathers Day Bluegrass weekend in Grass Valley in the early 90’s. I also saw Vern Williams, and these two legends even shared a stage. My greatest thrill was meeting and hearing Chris Gaffney in the early 2000’s may he rest in peace. Myself personally I have loved bluegrass since the 80’s and always loved folk music. Our legendary players include the Alvin brothers and of course James Intveld, Big Sandy and Deke Dickerson, who fly the country and rockabilly flags with equal zest. Our state has a proud legacy, and of course our greatest contribution to songwriting besides Merle and Buck has to be Tom Waits. He redefined music with no boundaries but roots in jazz, blues and country. I’m proud to have former Hacienda Brothers Dale Daniel and Dave Berzanski on my latest recording because our country talent is so real and present. We have as much desert and forest as we do beaches and boulevards. I love this film and am proud to honor Marty as a legendary unifier of the worlds of American music.

[@tommckinnon1005]

Marty Stuart was born to be the curator of Americana music

[@michaelolz]

He’s had the greatest career in music, I believe.

[@thablakester]

I didn't know this little documentary existed until now! I'm a hard rock & heavy metal man but Marty Stuart captured me about 3 or 4 years ago & I've been hooked ever since! I've been fortunate enough to see him and the Superlatives 4 times on the Way Out West Tour & it's one of the best albums I've ever heard. I guess it caught me at just the right time. :-) Can't wait to finish this video!

[@medicinalamericana3053]

Marty Stuart is a living, breathing, music encyclopedia. If you're looking for inspiration he always steers you in the right direction.

[@kd7zhz]

I found what Marty was all about; too late in life. He ain’t been faking. Lots to hear now!

[@ReganHallMusic]

Man would I love to perform once with him.

[@1kindsoul636]

Amen! Saw them with Chris and Roger on the Sweetheart tour. Mind blown!

[@jimcurry5458]

Marty has got to be one of the coolest guys in music. His solo in the song with Roger McGuinn is majestic and absolutely sublime.

[@joevalentin2450]

The cowboy image which Marty is, represents real American manhood. The symbol of independence and self reliance. He is an inspiring figure in country music.

[@mpactdesignmedia]

Way Out West is an absolute gem of an album. I don't own many country albums, but I own, listen often to, and highly tout this one.

[@brucemacmillan7128]

This is just sooooo much better than most of the crap that passes for country music these days. Real deal y'all!

[@darlagehres8479]

Being a wild child growing up in Bakersfield and a great privilege to have known the Owen's & Haggard families, I will always pick the Bakersfield Sound to reside in my heart. 🎶♥️ Fabulous video Marty! 🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@kennybluet5527]

Marty is without a doubt the best there is. This is what country is supposed to be.

[@andyorr1597]

One of my favorite albums from one of my absolute favorite bands. I was lucky enough to watch Kenny and Chris play endless sessions in Nashville with Hoot and Rachael Hester. Those sessions piqued my interest in Marty and after that, I’ve been a diehard. Marty and I agree. Sweethearts of The Rodeo is the start of the California sound - the Dead, the Eagles, Flying Burritos, etc., can be traced to that album. The world somehow revolves around Clarence White. I just haven’t figured it out yet. 🤓

[@alonzobishop3671]

Marty is a national treasure… 🙏🏻

[@guitarradioshow]

Marty Stuart is truly the keeper of the flame and a National Treasure.

[@jaschroeder59]

What a gem of a presentation!

[@karenehlers2534]

I could hear Mike Campbell's production on this before I even knew he produced it. It's still in high rotation (on vinyl) in my house! It's a perfect album.

[@truckerkevthepaidtourist]

indeed if it wasn't for Mike basically kicking Marty in the ass and saying let's do this it would have never got done. it is a great album one I've still never tired of yet since it's release

[@renegade1520]

Absolutely the best as usual. Great album. Marty and his Superlatives are spectacular talents!

[@ElaineShute]

You don't have to be "into" country music to love this album.

[@ChuckHedges-bv7bd]

Marty, you will be the legion brother..and i agree with you.

[@tonytotten408]

This guy marty Stuart is so talented and his knowledge is just great from a young lad his mind must have been like a sponge just absorbed everything he done or played with jus one of America's great talented people 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@Ledprostate]

True Western country music. Thanks for the trip, Marty!

[@justifiedFaith209]

Marty Legend. What a band.

[@jeffcrist2977]

I really miss pedal steel. Marty's always been a favorite. Great video!

[@johndurant8687]

Marty sure has had a unique vantage point from where he has lived an incredible life as an amazing accomplished music artist. The years he has occupied, and the Superlatives are a testament to his legend. Sure glad he's still making music. Hope to see them live someday soon.

[@hpetew1]

What a great film this is a great album as well.

[@douggarrick4378]

The only thing better than the album is seeing them perform the entire album in a very nice small venue. It was undoubtedly one of my favorite live music experiences. The songs from the album were great and the professionalism and musicianship was superlative as the name implies. It was nearly a two hour show and even when they played songs not on Way out West they we're still relevant to the spirit of the album. Totally amazing show.

[@Yeahthatsright717]

Yes! Saw them at the Mystic Theater in Petaluma Ca. with Deke Dickerson opening, an amazing show!!

[@EarthtonesCymbals]

Your comment is perfect Doug.

[@babayaga1767]

Marty is a class act he walks and talks and lives country music Marty also stays in his roots thank you Marty for being one of the all time best and staying true to county music. May god bless you and your family.

[@monmixer]

I wonder where that double neck guitar is that the boy is playing today? Wow... Marty keeps country alive. I have worked with him and his crew many times. Top notch and great people.

[@Clunk49]

I have the cd and the songs make me think of scenes & pictures in the west. Also with headphones turned up, the tune Way Out West has a "wall of sound" for me.

[@RodAuger]

Thank you, Marty Stuart, for being such a great student of this great music!

[@michaelray9576]

[@rubbersole79]

God Bless Marty Stuart.

[@josephbaca6372]

I love Marty and the Superlatives, but this video is over the top awesome as it seems it just covered and touched so many facets of my life. This video just so captured life in the Western US. I can't wait to dig into the new album. Thanks for this cool psychedelic country trip. Love all the Superlatives videos and all the videos of the members giving historical background on Country and really just the music of the United States. Learned as much from this bands' members' tales as I have in all my years of reading about music. Thanks guys for all you do.

[@brianwood7237]

Just discovered this in 2023... man this is just so cool this is my new favorite band

[@jeffclark7888]

Buck Owens, Don Rich, the Buckaroos and Wynn Stewart. Yes, yes, yes.

Just saw this wonderful band in SoCal , best show I’ve seen in years . The whole band just keeps you in the moment. Don’t miss them .

Very inspiring to struggling artists.

[@nashvilletennessee3194]

What a great interview! Thank you so much for taking the country music history that is in Marty's brain and preserving it forever!

[@bobrome6549]

Saw them in Branson and the other day at the Stoughton Opera House - love Marty & his band! Pure joy...

[@flautalee3090]

So happy for you!

[@Productions-ig5vc]

My wife and I have seen them 6 times in the past 2 years... every show has been completely different than the previous one.

[@robertlee8042]

This is one of the most interesting, entertaining, informative, and well-produced videos on the Internet, if you are interested in seeing the evolution of our society through the lens of music-which spawned a lifestyle and fashion and philosophy. This video filled in a lot of historical holes for me. When as a boy I first heard Marty Robbins do El Paso, I instinctively knew I had just heard an inflection point. Even though I didn’t know the term. And I didn’t know the rhythm had grabbed me because it was a polka! 6/8 time! I just reacted to it and it’s exotic-ness. And then, the almost flight of the bumble bee speed of the tale of a cowboy dying for love, to guitar music. With lots of detail! I didn’t know the older history at all. I knew Tennessee Ernie Ford. Doris Day. Elvis. Buddy Holly. Burl Ives. Eddie Fisher. Prez Prado. That’s all I knew when I was ten or 11, except for classical 45s my fathry had gotten me, like Peter and the Wolf. This video is really helpful, as well as nostalgia producing.

[@shannonkringen]

way out west is very spacious and i love that space.

[@EarthtonesCymbals]

Me too Shannon. That is a beautiful observation.

[@shannonkringen]

Darryl Lehman thanks! Kinship felt

[@user-et2fj8xm5l]

Seeing Marty and the boys at the Florida Theater in Jacksonville this Nov 11. This was an outstanding presentation..

[@stephenlennartz3466]

Oh man!! .... what beautiful riffs Marty is playing with Roger McGuinn at about 15:00. Speaks to my soul. Just phenomenal!

Thank you for posting this. What an amazing find I’m going to see Marty here in near the Seattle area the 13th of this month finally thank you for this pose❤

[@princykiko]

Thank you Marty and band. From a kindred spirit originally from the west of Ireland. In two hours I'm heading to o'Hare airport, flying to Nashville to see you with Roger and Chris at the Ryman.

[@gergled2846ify]

I drove from Detroit to Nashville to see the show. WOW! Exceeded all my expectations which were already high!

[@princykiko]

@@gergled2846ify Historic show. Always loved the Byrds, every lineup. Glad to hear from others who keep this music alive.

[@blackpeach]

Me and my lady drove from Chicago to Nashville to see the gig. Amazing show! Two Byrds, Marty, and the Fabulous Superlatives. Legendary stuff!

We flew from northern Canada to see them. Pure magic.

[@workerbeedrone]

Shit. This is the best damn documentary I've seen in a long time.

[@kinkfloydd]

My swan song in music was being the Lead Singer for Tiny Moore's lead singer with his studio band. Even as a teenager with the English invasion, there was clawhammer banjo for me, loved this movie

[@baseboy1241]

Marty seems like a right decent down to earth guy.

[@johnwalker6919]

As usual KV kills it.

[@lindafurr2404]

Watch Marty Stuart on RFD tv. He is one cool dude. Great story teller and a great singer! Also got the prettiest girl and wonderful singer for a wife! Connie Smith!

[@Poetic_Justice1962]

The album of the same name is absolutely great. It has a Mojave Desert theme, like a concept album, and feels real and cinematic.

[@wilddog321]

We can only hope that sometime in the bears future, Stuart,Campbell, McGuinn, Hillman and the Superlatives can get together for what would be an earthshaking array of talent. How we need guys lie these to bring back the sincerity, and love of the roots of the music we hold dear.
