Description

Waylon Jennings "Jole Blon"/ "When Sin Stops" Yellow Label Promo Brunswick 55130 (1959). Jennings' first major label release came after the death of his friend and band-mate, Buddy Holly, but this record had been instigated by Buddy and had actually been cut the year before in Clovis, New Mexico. Buddy produced it and played guitar, and King Curtis played sax on the recording, which was made on a day Buddy and the Crickets were in session cutting new tracks. And, no, Waylon didn't know French! He sang the words phonetically -- certainly good enough to fool the rest of us Texans! Destined for Holly's own Prism Records label, it was eventually released by the Crickets' label, Brunswick, who provided the Holly family with this promotional copy. There's writing on both labels, but the record is quite nice. Condition: VG-EX 6.From Maria Elena Holly's personal collection.
