By 2000, Waylon Jennings had over 40 years of experience on stage. He started as the bassist for Buddy Holly in the late 1950s, and over the years, Waylon continually grew as a musician and bandleader.

Health problems took their toll on Waylon in the 1990s. He suffered from emphysema, diabetes and had a mild stroke. Despite all that, Waylon wanted nothing more than to get back on stage. In early 2000, he put together a band with many of his favorite musicians, called it The Waymore Blues Band, and booked a show at Nashville's Ryman Theatre.

Waylon many not have known that it would be one of his last concerts. He may not have even cared. His only concern was to pull out all the stops and make this just as memorable as every other time he took the stage.

Throughout this hour, we'll hear many musical highlights of this historic evening, and comments from many of the people who made it possible - Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson, Bobby Bare, Chet Atkins, Cowboy Jack Clement, Billy Joe Shaver, his wife Jessi Colter, his son, Shooter Jennings, and even Waylon himself.

Waylon's classic compositions and covers heard throughout Never Say Die include "Good Hearted Woman," "I'm a Ramblin Man" with Montgomery Gentry, "Suspicious Minds" with Jessi Colter, "Can't You See" and "Trouble Man."

IN STORES JULY 24, 2007:

  • Waylon Jennings and the Waymore Blues Band - Never Say Die: The Final Concert Film - Live box set with the show on DVD and 2 CDs.
  • The Essential Waylon Jennings
  • Request copies of these CDs (also set to mail with the special on 7/23).

When a young man named Johnny Cash tried to get his first record deal, he told Sam Philips of Sun Records that he was a Gospel Singer. Philips said, “No Thanks,” but that didn’t stop Cash from recording and playing gospel songs. In time, Cash took his faith a lot further. He became a biblical scholar, a religious writer and even an ordained minister.

In this one-hour radio special, we’re going to hear about the spiritual world of Johnny Cash from family and friends. Interview subjects include his son, John Carter Cash, musicians Marty Stuart and Larry Gatlin and biographers Patrick Carr and Dave Urbanski.

Johnny Cash: Amazing Grace also contains more than a dozen of Cash’s best known gospel songs, including both traditional and original compositions. “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot,” “Here Was a Man,” How Great Thou Art” and many more works are featured alongside stories of how Cash was inspired to record these timeless spirituals.
