James Jennings Interview

On February 13, 2022. Super Bowl number 56 with the LA Rams vs the Cincinnati Bengals at home in LA in the new Rams SoFi Stadium; Inglewood with the half time show featuring Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, Kendrick Lamar and Dr. Dre!. It's also the day before St. Valentine's Day, but more importantly this year marks 20 years since Waylon Jennings left this world. He was only 64 years old and died due to diabetic complications. But he had one hell of a life. Played bass guitar for Buddy Holly, gave up his seat on the ill-fated flight the day music died. He lived on to pioneer the Outlaw Country movement. And along with Willie, his wife Jessi Colter and Tompall Glaser was featured on country music's first platinum album, "Wanted! The Outlaws." He was the Balladeer for The Dukes of Hazzard TV show. And later Waylon part of the country supergroup The Highwaymen with Willie, Kris Kristofferson, and the man in black Johnny Cash. Waylon sold over 40 million albums, the man needs need no further introduction.

Today we have with us, James Jennings, you are the last living brother of Waylon Jennings. Hey James!
Thanks for joining us here on tiny curations. How are you doing today?

Great seeing you this week at your store and chatting with you.

Like many men my age, I loved Dukes of Hazzard! Watched it every Friday night following the show that my parent's would watch, Dallas. I had a little 33 record of Waylon singing the "Theme From The Dukes Of Hazzard - Just Good Ole Boys". I would place the needle on that record and time it to the TV show when is started and let the record play along with Waylon Jennings as The Balladeer. Even had the now Vintage 1982 Holy Grail of Power Cycles, the Dukes Of Hazzard General Lee Big Wheel from Coleco complete with the stars and bars and all.

Although I was only able to see the man live in concert once at the Willie's 4th of July Picnic in Luckenbach in 1996 with Willie, Waylon and the Boys. Your brother along with his music made a big impression and me and so many others.

James, I've met you before at your Waymore's Liquor Store and then again this past Monday, right there in your hometown of Littlefield, TX, just West of Lubbock near the panhandle. You were so kind and gracious to show my family around your store and what is the only Waylon Jennings museum in existence in the back your Waymore's Package Store. How did that come about, why did you start the Waylon museum there in Littlefield?

The store is located 30 minutes West of Lubbock, in the small town of Littlefield, smack dab in the middle of town sits Waymore's Liquor Store and Waylon Jennings Museum at 901 Hall Ave Littlefield, TX 79339.
