Waylon Jennings - The Dark Side Of Fame
Review by Mike Byrne
The Dark Side of Fame, the 1986 album by Waylon Jennings, is a collection of ten tracks that explore the highs and lows of life in the spotlight. The album is a reflection of Jennings' own experiences with fame and the music industry, and it offers a candid look at the darker side of success.
The album's title track is a haunting ballad that sets the tone for the rest of the record. Jennings' gravelly voice is the perfect vehicle for the song's lyrics, which describe the loneliness and isolation that can come with fame. Other standout tracks include "Where Do We Go From Here," a poignant ballad about the end of a relationship, and "How Much Is It Worth To Live In L.A.," a scathing critique of the superficiality of Hollywood.
Throughout the album, Jennings' signature blend of country, rock, and blues is on full display. His band, the Waylors, provide a solid backing for his vocals and guitar work, and the production is crisp and clean.

"Wailing" Waylon
Jennings from
Littlefield, Texas,
who sadly died from
diabetes at age 64. "Sweet Dream
Woman" is my favorite song he
recorded, and one
of the all-time great country songs. Thanks Bianca!???
