- Because Ritchie Valens WAS the real deal. He was only starting, but in the time he spent in the business, he made big impact. I don’t know if anybody could have made a bigger one.
- I mean, I think we’re put here on earth to make your own destiny, to begin with. I don’t think there’s anything you can do this way or that way to change anything.
- Jessi is a great person. She really is. She’s been a friend to me all through all my bad times, and she’s understood what I was doing. She came up with that one saying, which was great.

Waylon Jennings was a legendary American country music singer, songwriter, and guitarist, known for pioneering the “Outlaw Country” movement in the 1970s. Born on June 15, 1937, in Littlefield, Texas, Jennings began his career as a DJ before joining Buddy Holly’s band. He famously gave up his seat on the plane that crashed in 1959, killing Holly—a moment that deeply impacted him.
Jennings rose to fame with a gritty, rebellious sound that defied the polished Nashville style, producing hits like “Good Hearted Woman,” “Luckenbach, Texas,” and “Mammas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys.” As part of the Highwaymen supergroup with Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, and Kris Kristofferson, he further solidified his iconic status.
Battling drug addiction for years, Jennings overcame his struggles and continued to influence country music until his death in 2002. His legacy endures as a symbol of artistic freedom and authenticity.
