The first trial episode was aired on 1 October 1986, and filming lasted until 1987. Season 1 has 25 episodes and covers 74 chapters of the novel. Ganwen Lu Zai Hefang (敢问路在何方) performed by Jiang Dawei Jennings’ reverence and the crowd’s apparent love is enough to make me think Wills is probably worth a listen.Chinese mythology, shenmo, fantasy, adventure I also now know, thanks to this song, that he was a Texan. Late on the album, Bob Wills is Still the King sounds like the flip sideto Are You Sure Hank Done it This Way? I have no idea who Bob Wills is, but the crowd on this live recording sure does. Give me another chorus, a little guitar break, then cap it off with an actual ending. And in every case, I could have down with a little more. Almost every song fades out, mid chorus, with no definite ending. But here, it’s one of the only weaknesses of Dreaming My Dreams. But punk has taught me that in my most cases, if a song hasn’t been good within the first two minutes, it’s probably not gonna improve with an extended length. Too many bands feel like the key to making a good song is making an epic song. Brevity is generally underrated and under used in music.

Of the thirteen tracks on Dreaming My Dreams, only three crack the three minute barrier. But when you hear the tender music, big harmonies and the Jennings’ take on lyrics like, “So ladies, if they ask you don’t refuse, let’s all help the cowboys sing the blues”, it all of a sudden sounds a lot more genuine and sincere. When read as a title, I found it pretty hokey, corny and on the nose. Things get really sentimental on Let’s All Help (the Cowboys Sing the Blues). He’s selfish, he’s impulsive in all the wrong ways, he’ll never act on the song’s title, but I’ll be buggered if he doesn’t sound like a fun bloke to hang out with. It’s upbeat and jaunty, with a story about an unapologetic prick who you can’t help but like. Then comes High Time (You Quit Your Lowdown Ways), exactly what you want from one of the Nashville shit kickers of the 70s. Waymore’s Blues and I Recall a Gypsie Woman add to that authenticity by combining the first person storytelling with a slowed down approach that adds a little vulnerability to Jennings’ usual cocky swagger. Whether it’s autobiographical or complete fiction, all the I/me/my lyrics, combined with the worn out drawl of Jennings, makes those stories seem so real and lived in. It’s all about respecting those who came before and everything they accomplished, without becoming a slave to it.Ĭountry music loves to tell a story in the first person. He was there to do things his way, not worship at the altar of the old guard, personified by Hank Williams. But the more I listen to the original, the more I can hear Jennings’ middle finger raising, outlaw edge, basically telling the country music industry to go fuck themselves.

On an album full of songs I really dig, Are You Sure Hank Done it This Way? is by the stand out and by far the song I’ve listened to the most from Shifflett’s country outfit.Īt first, I found Jennings’ version kind of underwhelming compared to the bigger, rockier sound of the Dead Peasants take.

I came to it via a cover by Chris Shiflett and the Dead Peasants. Track 1 is the song that made me want to hear more of Waylon Jennings, know more about Waylon Jennings… And I didn’t even know it was a Waylon Jennings jam.
