With his black hat, beard and baritone voice, Waylon defined the rebel, gritty spirit of the country music outlaw movement. Blending honkytonk, folk, and Southern rock to create a revolutionary sound, Waylon had 16 #1 hits, including "I'm a Rambling Man," "Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys" (with Willie Nelson), and the theme song for TV's "The Dukes of Hazzard."Shooter is keeping his father's legacy alive by producing long-lost material which he found stashed away.
