    Those of us long time Hetfield fans are no stranger to the fact that one of his favorite genres to listen to is old, real country. And truth be known, most real metal fans from generations past are also fans of old country music. Long before it became "pop country".

      +Jayhoyt32 Hell yeah. Guys like Waylon, Johnny Cash, and Jerry Lee was where it all started. Their music was considered outsider music back then. People are so narrow minded today. It's not the music that matters. It's the attitude behind the music and Waylon was definitely an outlaw.

      +Larry Baumgardner I've heard that as well. And I'd really love to know simply because I've always considered myself a true fan and I'd like to think I know as much about Het as anyone else (that he wants fans to know anyway) but the truth about that rumor still eludes me.

    On the tribute album its lists James as playing each instrument. He literally went into the studio and laid down the tracks himself. Drums, bass, sitar, all of it. An homage no doubt. Waylon is the one who inspired the song "Waste My Hate" while he and James ate lunch in a diner.

      Hello Ryan! No I am not mad that he hunts. I am really disappointed about him. As I said, I was a really metallica fan, for this reason I had a lot of videos about them here. But now, I show my feelings about it. I won't go anymore to the shows and I won't buy anything more about Metallica. On the other hand, I really like their music, I play guitar and I am a rocker. Independent, after Lars said about "who we are "to say anything about this situacion, I am sure that my opinion about the band now is correct. They don't deserve my respect.Have a nice sunday!

      You do realize that he's been a hunter for years, I also believe he speaks about that in SKOM (the movie) when addressing to why he went to treatment for alcohol abuse.
      Also, you shouldn't mix his qualities and talent as a musician with what he does on his free time for leisure.

      Lise Lira what's wrong with hunting? NOTHING! I'm a hunter I eat what I kill, yes there are assholes out there that just shoot and leave the animals laying and those are NOT hunters! I'm sure when James hunts he eats what he kills

      don't you worry there is definitely another outlaw movement coming it's just in the shadows waiting for all out war on Nashville, it's small scale now but as soon as we starting busting those doors down it will all change. hank 3, rowdy Johnson band, Dallas Moore, Cody jinks, those poor bastards, lonesome wyatt, shooter Jennings, whey Jennings, are all a part of it and that's just scratching at the surface. it's coming and it may be sooner than you think. corporate Nashville will fall to the hands of true musicians who let music take its own form and don't let "genre's" define who they are.

    • @amandamcbride256

      I can't wait! Anything I can do to quicken the take-over...just let me know. It would be an amazing sight see Nashville return to its roots...and better still with all of those guys reopening the path for up more interesting singers with some lonesome tales to us all. The soul went right out the winder. No one understands me but Hank....and his Grandson gets my anger:) LOL. Thanks for the boost Rich Hope one day we can run into each other on that grand musical revival...revolution day. lol

    If Waylon Jennings and James Hetfield were friends, I don't see the big problem here.
    It's common for people to do covers (especially between friends). You can even buy records such as "Diver Down" by Van Halen that are mostly covers. In "Walk the Line," Johnny Cash gave one of his songs to Roy Orbison.
    Do the covers always sound like the original? No. They usually have a spin by the group that's covering them. If you'd rather hear Waylon Jennings doing these songs, no one is stopping you. And no one is forcing you to listen to James Hetfield.

    • @southstreetbarbecue7875
      @southstreetbarbecue7875 Před 4 lety +2

      Read the story about how Metallica's song "Wasting My Hate" was written. Waylon was a good friend of James and a huge influence on him. I can't see how anyone could have a problem with this cover.

    I grew up on the old outlaw country like Waylon Jennings, and also hard rock and metal, Waylon is still one of my favorite artists of all time. Good music is just good music, regardless of it being stuck into different generes, this is a great tribute to Waylon from a great metal artist. I know that Waylon was a lover of all different types of music and I know he had actually met James in person, and he would have loved this.

      Sloppy Joe At the fillmore shows for their 30th anniversary and they got all musicians who were part of tallica in composing the songs, and dave came up to do a few songs, well sadly he sounded just like a regular guitarist and didn't bring any megadeth stamp to add to it.......BUT this Jaymz guy is metallica because he brings the monstrous guitar tone, voice and character to wherever he may roam, hence this show!!!!!!!!!

    • @lucianoroberto9804
      @lucianoroberto9804 Před 8 lety +3

      I like either James Hetfield's playing or Dave Mustaine's, but don't measure anyone's musicianship by playing any cover band. In my opinion Mustaine is better than Hetfield nowadays, due to Megadeth's recent albums that are better than Metallica's latest album and songs..

    • @garethcraig8902
      @garethcraig8902 Před 7 lety +13

      Hetfield shits all over Mustaine when it comes to rhythm guitar, he isn't really a lead guitarist, but when he does play lead they tasty as all hell. Ask any top metal guitarist who has the most solid right hand they all gonna say Hetfield.

    That's Badass right there! Facts....Jamez and Waylon were actually pretty good friends. The song "Wasting My Hate" actually came from a conversation between him and Waylon. I don't remember the exact story I heard, but I think James asked Waylon if something or another bothered him or pissed him off. Waylon was like, "Nahhh, I don't waste my hate on 'em...."
