Re: Re: Re: Re: Waylon Jennings Doing "Jole Blon"

Hey T -Joe,

Good to hear from ya !Yeah..we're havin' a ball with the Band..lotsa fun, not much money but the bands in the black and not the red..that's an achievement!!

Hope family and all are well. ?

Will send you a separate email on other 'stuff'.

Hope to be back over your way March/April next year..Balfa Camp, etc..

For interest Jolie Blon, on that WJ CD is the real deal Jolie Blon melody...it's just that Waylon took a few liberties with it..particularly the sax parts....Ha!
....it's a strange recording...think Waylon was in a mellow mood at the time and it's a bit 'cocktail lounge' in style..would you believe!! !

Other songs on that CD are
Crying
Loves gonna live Here
Don'tThink Twice
Money
Big Mamou !!!
It's So Easy
Abilene
Sally was a Godd Ol' Girl
White Lightnin'
When Sin Stops
DReam baby
Burning Memories
Sweet Mental Revenge


Regards, Darryl.

That's a great photo of your record. Many thanks!

Re: Re: Waylon Jennings Doing "Jole Blon"

I had a feeling Roy Acuff composed Jolie Blon!

Just kidding!

Does it base the melody on old Jolie Blon? I would love to see the copyright certificate for this one, especially the part where you explain which parts of your claim involve something new and which something old.

There ya go - check the link!

Proper spelling: Jole Blon = Jolie Blonde

Now you have the proper spelling.
Jolie Blonde.
I have the French lyrics if you need them.

Re: Proper spelling: Jole Blon = Jolie Blonde

Quel paroles? I can't understand all of Zachary Richards lyrics. And it seems every version is slightly different.

Merci, si tu peut me les envoyer.

Re: MP3 of Waylon's Jole Blon

Thanks Man!!!

I just laughed & laughed every time I listened to it. I think the only lyrics Ol' Waylon got right where "hey ah-hah"
