[@MrStkrdknmibalz9799]

Now I understand why Waylon called him the most expensive harmony singer in the world.

[@elseMa5194]

Incompareable, Unforgetable ❤ Simply beautiful ❤

[@waylonvids]

I LOVE that look Leon gets in his eyes when he hears that great voice of Waylon take extreme ownership of the old Hank song. Then he looks over at Willie and without saying anything they both say everything. Willie smiles and basically what I get from it is "pretty fucking great huh?" Then Leon tugs Waylon's shirt as to say "Hell yeah".

[@coleencrawford2856]

yep and I miss it. to me it was magical

[@dawnhenderson9461]

Damn Leon was one sexy hot man so talented ❤😊

The "Weavers" version in 1950 was actually #1 on the charts.

[@maryrowles8934]

Don’t forget the wonderful sinister origin with Leadbelly!

They can sing that to me every night...

[@eaglewatcher290]

That is a great tune.

[@anthonycicarelli588]

Leon smiled with his eyes only, but very subtle , if he didn’t look like he wanted to kill you, that’s his smile. 😢

[@katmandew2152]

Did leon say snugle or smugle?........ In the intro. Non the less im not the only one who wishes they could get that tanked. Oh well, nothing in van do much for it now. Thanks for this gem.

[@eaglewatcher290]

It sounds like smugle to me.

Kids are from your futures, parents. We're older than you and you're shrinking faster than 50 is. G'night

[@josephhigdon2204]

Nice

[@tammylundy8912]

Leon's just a little bit drunk, bless him...

[@sandradurham]

Hi Ron, just found this one, I love it, but do you think Leon, Willie & Waylon are a bit "high" ?

[@eaglewatcher290]

@Sandra Durham I would bet they were higher than a kite. 😍

[@sandradurham]

@@eaglewatcher290 definitely Ron, ha,ha. I'd just been watching Leon & Willie singing jambalaya then Waylon came on to join them, it was all on the same show I think, it was hilarious, but what a "jem" I love it. Things like that just don't happen today plus there aren't any singers around to match them.

[@ragman069]

Everybody knows Leon drinks....Bless your heart

[@gregoryeditor6500]

Nice share Ron,, I just watched Roy Rogers last movie MACKINTOSH & T.J. and Waylon Jennings provided the music. Do you have the soundtrack of the movie?

[@eaglewatcher290]

I have never seen that movie. Was it a good one? I have one song from that soundtrack. All Around Cowboy.

@@eaglewatcher290 It sure was Ron, they do not play it on TV. olvinydude sent me the DVD. Here is the trailer .kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6PEgZWXhLqYqtU

[@waylonvids]

I do have the movie and also two vinyl copies of the soundtrack...one a not for sale promo copy.

Was that Emma Lou!!!

Think that’s Bobbie Nelson , Willie’s sister on the piano - those two recorded all of his hymn albums together
