“Goin’ Down Rockin”- Waylon Jennings – Waylon’s Last Recordings

This is a great Waylon-type country CD that can only be a blessing and surprise to Waylon’s fans and country music in general.
Waylon tracked these songs with his pedal steel player, Robby Turner, recording it at his studio. Robby would ask him, when he wanted to finish it, and Waylon would say, ‘You do it in your time.’
Well, that time did not come ’til now, about 10 years after Waylon’s death. Robby got the rest of the band in the studio, and thy did a remarkable job of finishing the disc. It is classic Waylon all of the way.
The first song on the CD “Goin’ Down Rockin” was written by Tony Joe White (Polk Salad Annie). You would not know the way this CD was put together, unless someone told you. Jenning’s voice is strong on all of the cuts. Reggie Young plays some great lead guitar. Well, I sure hope you pick up this disc, it has the warmth of an old Friend.
