You know, in the days when I started, if you had Chet Atkins' name on your record as a producer and it was on RCA, you could work the road. It didn't have to be a big hit record, it just had to have that on it.

Waylon Jennings
But Buddy was an upper. He was happy. He loved music, and he was really happy. I don't know... I don't believe in reincarnation at all, but if all that stuff is true, then he might have been on his last time around.
Waylon Jennings
If I could only fly, you see, a lot of my problems would be gone. When you think of just how much I'd save on shoes alone.
Waylon Jennings
Did ole Hank really do it this way?
