15 July 1975, Cambridge, Massachusetts — Waylon Jennings was born in Littlefield, Texas in 1937 and personified the hard-living honky tonk lifestyle. He played bass with rock-and-roll legend Buddy Holly in the 1950′s, misbehaved with Johnny Cash in the 1960′s, and had dozens of top-ten hits including 1978′s “Mama Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys.” It was as an “Outlaw” that Waylon along with Willie Nelson, Tompall Glaser, Billy Joe Shaver and others streamlined arrangements, eschewed cliched lyrics and modernized country music by returning to its soulful roots and mixing in alittle rock-and-roll. — Image by © Henry Horenstein/Corbis A bunch of terrific Boston area photographs of country musicians and locales over at PHOTOGRAPHY OF HENRY HORENSTEIN AN AMERICAN ARCHIVE — HONKY TONK « The Selvedge Yard).
