As the son of Willie Nelson guitarist Jody Payne and Grammy winning singer Sammi Smith, Waylon Payne‘s blood runs thick with country songwriting. It’s been a little past a decade and a half since Payne’s previous album, but after sixteen long years he’s returned with his LP Blue Eyes, The Harlot, The Queer, The Pusher & Me.
Aside from its mouthful of a title, BEHQPM proves an awesome twelve-song romp across country, blues, and rock, with Payne’s vocals front-and-center. Hear for yourself on one of Blue Eyes‘ strongest tracks, appearing at the one-third mark on the record, “All The Trouble”!
