Waylon Jennings Pt 2 (S01E07)

Tired of the constraints imposed by Nashville, Waylon Jennings donned his signature black hat and broke free from convention, establishing himself as a pioneer among country music's outlaws. He recorded on his own terms, often under the influence of cocaine in a studio dubbed "Hillbilly Central." To ensure his safety, he even employed Hell's Angels to protect him and watch over his child. With hits like "Honky Tonk Heroes" and "Luckenbach, Texas," Waylon caught the attention of federal authorities due to his reckless lifestyle, further enhancing his legendary status. Ultimately, he surprised Nashville by quitting drugs cold turkey after penning "Don't You Think This Outlaw Bit's Done Got Out of Hand."
