ONE OF THE BEST COUNTRY ALBUMS OF ALL TIME!, September 22, 2002
This review is from: Waymore's Blues Pt 2 (Audio CD)
Quite simply, this is the best country album I have ever heard. It is a masterpiece, the achievement of a lifetime for a once in a lifetime artist. I've often thought, in the 8 years since I first heard it, is it really THAT good? Then I've listened again and yes, IT IS! Waylon wrote or co-wrote all but one of the songs here, with the lone exception being Tony Joe White's wonderfully evocative "Up in Arkansas." There are so many great songs on this album that there is not room to mention them all, but I have to say a special word about one. "Old Timer (The Song)" may be the most wonderfully written (and sung) story song in country music history. It is a story about an old cowboy and the girl he loved and lost, and also about the unique, independent life he has lived. It never gets old. Heck, none of these songs do. If you haven't heard much or any of Waylon's 1990s stuff, do yourself a favor and listen to it. Get "Right for the Time", "Closing in on the Fire" and "Too Dumb for New York City". But, most of all, get "Waymore's Blues (Part II)". You owe it to yourself to listen to the master at his absolute best. Again, this is a masterpiece. Real country music, and real ART. 'Nuff said.

Yes, in deed ......, April 23, 2006
This review is from: Waymore's Blues Pt 2 (Audio CD)
This is the best that country music has to offer, bar none. I've owned a tape of Waymore's Blues Part II for seveal years. It is as great today as it was when it first hit the market. It will remain so. You will be hard pressed to find any better. IMHO! These songs are so good it's almost scary. Too bad the radio stations didn't pick up on it as they should have. Maybe this Waylon Jennings was just too good for the air waves. Many people missed out on excellance.
Waymore's Blues takes you with it. It talks to you. It tells your story. It breaks your heart, lifts your spirits and moves your feet, body and soul.
Buy it. Now! Or you'll never know.
