You Ask Me To - Waylon Jennings | The Midnight Special

[@Gary-n5l7y]

Beautiful Song❤❤..

[@desalineredux435]

The only person to walk out of the We Are the World recording. RIP

[@Cantbuyathrill]

"No good old boy ever sang in Swahili" I salute you, Wailon!

[@MT_hick78]

I could listen to Hoss and mooney talk back and forth for hours and it’d never get old.

[@Cantbuyathrill]

"No good old boy ever sang in Swahili" I salute you, Wailong!

[@JamesMeikle-h1z]

Mann that Harmonica playing is so😊 cool

[@stephenkatko3236]

That's Don Brooks. He did all the harp on Waylon's records. The "This Time" album has some amazing harp on it. Check it out.

[@chaskajones8509]

Maaaaaan he’s got two in his hands as well. Legend

[@KittyGrizGriz]

Whew! I love “Outlaw Country” and especially sexy Waylon Jennings! So glad he didn’t get on that plane, the day the music died…

[@curtisphilumalee1447]

Outlaw Country is the only Country Music I ever listened too. Also most admit I enjoyed that Bakersfield sound too as a kid. (Don Rich) I’m sure you have listened to Willie. His son Micah will no doubt carry on his dad’s legacy. If you haven’t listened to Micah here’s something he wrote that’s worth the time .m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5Sai3ice5Zsidk&pp=ygUnaWYgaSBkaWUgaGlnaCBpJ2xsIGJlIGhhbGZ3YXkgdG8gaGVhdmVu

[@KittyGrizGriz]

⁠@@curtisphilumalee1447Yes Ty! 😊 I love Dwight Yoakam aka Bakersfield Sound too, glad I experienced him live, and absolutely love Willie and Kris K. Have listened to Micah before and glad he’s carrying on his dads tradition, so cool.

[@vickiemcgeary5527]

Miss Waylon and moon and Jessi ❤❤❤❤❤❤never be another.

[@that70sgirl90]

I was exposed to a lot of genres in my house. My parents were big Country Western fans. Every Saturday night, growing up the Saturday night line-up was Country Western shows and big band. If you wanted to watch tv, you learned to watch what your parents were watching. You learned to appreciate and respect other people's music. I dont know what I miss the most... sitting in the living room watching tv with my parents or those shows on tv. I'd have to say... both. Best days growing up.❤ May you rest in eternal peace my loving dad. 🕊 Happy Saturday... thank you for sharing! 💖 Happy Holidays! 🎄✨️🎁🦌🎅🤶🧑‍🎄

[@janicetrimmell6897]

I know what you mean. Saturday's started in the afternoon with Porter Wagoner's show. My mom was a fan. Later in the evening there was Lawrence Welk. My Dad just thought Joanne Castle, the pianist, hung the moon. Often they would have the Grand Ole Opry on radio later at night. Not necessarily my cup of tea, but I miss being together and watching all at one time.

[@that70sgirl90]

@janicetrimmell6897 Same Saturday night line-up! Hee Haw, too! Thank you for sharing! 💖

[@KittyGrizGriz]

⁠@@that70sgirl90My dad and I watched Hee Haw also, was so fun laughing together! Roy Clark is buried here in Tulsa. I miss my dad also, he died when I was only 32, missed out. Merry Christmas!🎄🎄🎄

[@that70sgirl90]

@KittyGrizGriz I'm so sorry. Beautiful memories. You're right... not enough time. Truthfully, there's never really time. Merry Christmas! 🎄💛🎄

[@KAISER-OUTDOORS]

RIP - both waylon & billy joe shaver

[@judycolson6047]

Wow I don't recall ever seeing Waylon on the Midnight Special. This is such a great typical song of Waylon's. Tap your feet and rock to the beat of this classic! Sure miss Waylon Jennings. RIP Your kind don't come along very often. Classic country!

[@Jamko1970]

Waylon is the shit!!!!!!

[@JacobTanks]

Nobody’s taking about the way that guy KILLING THAT HARMONICA! 🔥 🔥 🔥 Actually even more impressive than the Steel Guitar

[@dublev78]

One of the greatest songs from the best country album ever recorded

[@sclawman]

Ralph Mooney tearing up that pedal steel.

[@angiejones3733]

Would have been a great show to see live. ❤ Waylon's music, it never gets old. ❤=w=❤

[@johnostrowski3402]

Simply, the best ever.

[@katmandew2152]

Just great music and message. Yea, I love you..... Oh well call me a fool. Obviously........ha! Peace eh?

[@kevinmuzerMetalMind64]

God Bless Waylon Jennings

[@jenbloom6848]

Gorgeous gee-tar! That’s the country/western I love.

[@RodeWerk-Rw]

What a terrific performance. Thank you, The Midnight Special.

[@theoloutlaw]

The KING at his finest!

[@TheThomasmoon]

I couldn't have put it better myself

[@Callipygous1975]

Country could use some people like him today. Writers who don't turn out the same old meaningless and similar sounding songs.

[@gslick424]

Check out Whitey Morgan & the 78s outta Michigan

[@brianbrino4310]

Excellent as everything coming from Waylon!

[@janicetrimmell6897]

I loved Waylon's big outlaw voice. But, bring out the steel and you had my attention. Still do.

[@mzinns]

The great Ralph Mooney on pedal steel. Waylon referred to him as the greatest steel player ever.

[@DrummingMan1]

I swear to God, both he and Willie Nelson shared the same studio, and perhaps performance players! fucking outlaws! Awesome! 64 is too young to die!

[@sandradurham]

"Wow" what a "gem" of Waylon, this is a fantastic & by far the best version that Waylon sings of this one. 😄👍❤🎸🎼🎵🎶🎻🎹

[@timhankins7707]

Back when there was real country music!

[@jeanastubbert6749]

These impromptu morning concert viewings are everything, thank you! 🙏

[@TheThomasmoon]

There was only one Waylon there will never be another perfection can't be duplicated

[@terringuyen8736]

❤Yes! Love Waylon, one of the greatest !

[@allyanderson6755]

❤I was 1 in 1973...but I am certain if I was a young woman then I would definitely had loved that man 😂😂❤Waylon was just so gorgeous with his charismatic charm and perfect voice❤damn he was fine😂❤

[@StephanieJeanne]

I'm not a huge country fan, but that was pretty cool. Waylon's got a good voice, and the band was great. I love a good harmonica player.

[@rosskstar]

I worked for a carpenter in the 80's who played country - i was into rock but am really glad i was exposed to all the great country artists at that time

[@StephanieJeanne]

@@rosskstar Yeah, I heard the older classic country artists from family members who were into it, and from seeing them on TV shows. I can definitely appreciate them.

[@KittyGrizGriz]

Love me some Waylon, and his deep voice 😅

[@dublev78]

You should listen to this album. I am not a country fan and it’s in my top 10. Honky Tonk Heroes is the name. Start to finish great

[@elseMa5194]

Great, great Waylon Jennings!

[@blakepeacock6568]

Is it just me or is Waylon's outfit a little unusual for him? I don't think I've ever seen him dressed quite like he is here.....especially in 1975. Waylon and the band were on fire at this time!!

[@cariboooutlaw4852]

This was recorded in 1973 but didn't air until 1975.

[@flicewatter]

Awesome ❤️

[@Husky121966]

Waylon you will live in our hearts forever!

[@TheDoug1980]

Hoss is the boss !! Larry Whltmore jamming out on the 12 string !

[@JQ127-c4e]

Can someone identify the band members with Waylon? They're great!

[@guilhermebahia6050]

Steel Guitar - Ralph Mooney Acoustic Guitar - Larry Whitmore Bass - Duke Goff Drums - Richie Albright Harmonica - Don Brooks

[@JQ127-c4e]

Ya think Waylon is a little hammered 😮😮

[@sulevisydanmaa9981]

R E A L (=Royal..) music = N O s h i t .. (= ... ).

[@canalcksofficial1745]

Pure country, but the best version I've heard was on Elvis' Good Times or Promised Land album

[@MrRacket991]

This was the beginnings of the shaggy Outlaw Waylon. The bass player kind of looks like Randy Meisner from the Eagles.

[@guido2114]

Larry Whitmore on the 12 string and backing vocals.

[@matthewmoyer2]

Thbak you! Been trying to figure that out. I think Randy Meisner is playing bass

[@Zzyzx_2112]

👍👍

[@recordguy4321]

Looks like pedal steel giant RALPH MOONEY

[@rjillidge3]

John Hartford does a really good cover this as well.

[@ontarget7582]

Who's playing the lap steel?

[@KittyGrizGriz]

Ralph Mooney, is what someone posted here

[@philipetheridge3551]

More Waylon, less that other dude. Lol

[@Oklahoma-Dreaming]

You ain’t gangsta ‘til you’ve done time with the Folsom Wolf, like Johnny Cash. Jennings was only arrested and not charged.

[@Jessidaniel]

This was not recorded in 1975

[@cariboooutlaw4852]

You're right, it was recorded in 1973 but didn't air until '75.

[@ALRULZ1965]

Waylon looked pretty fucked up that night. Lol
