There is an official Waylon documentary underway with my good friend Greg Olliver (Lemmy, Chasing Whiskey) directing. Willie was interviewed yesterday. He also filmed all of me finding, preparing and finishing the Songbird (and future) albums. t.co/JTDsPfV2lK

"Willie was interviewed yesterday. He also filmed all of me finding, preparing and finishing the Songbird (and future) albums."
"Fantastic! Can't wait to see this!" one person wrote, with a second adding, "That's fantastic, Shooter! Just keeps getting better and better! Thank you so much!"
How did the 'Songbird' album come about?
As Country Thang Daily reported, Songbird — released this year — is the first of three posthumous Waylon albums that Shooter has put together using lost recordings from the years between 1973 and 1984. Shooter apparently unearthed the vintage tapes while looking through his father's archives and discovered that the music on them was already almost completed. Though he did add some finishing touches, such as harmonies, he reportedly left the recordings as raw as possible.
Sounds like the perfect companion album to the upcoming documentary.
