First and foremost the narration by Waylon is great.

Had this not been the case I would have passed on this as it is a pretty brief memoir of his life and career. Would’ve liked a bit more of a walk through album by album and some insights and stories on the events, thoughts and production of each.

Would’ve been excellent to hear tell of tales of Waylon’s time with Billy Joe Shaver, Haggard, and Jones and some further details of his time with Willie, Miller and Cash.

I will say it is a good introduction to Jennings and his music for new listeners or people who prefer a light listen.

Stellar story. He pulls no punches and doesn’t hide away from the dark sides of his history. Well told, amazingly performed.
