Country rock journals : a collection of articles and essays starring Waylon Jennings, Leonard Cohen, Kinky Friedman, Gram Parsons, John Prine, and Billy Joe Shaver by William F. Conrad. aka as Bill Conrad.
Introduction: This book began as a recollection of my brief but eventful association with Country Music outlaw Waylon Jennings. After writing close to 20,000 words on the subject, I realized I had told my story. Even with lots of pictures, that wouldn't make for much of a book. I decided to add press releases & biographies I wrote as Waylon's publicist in the late '70s. An article about my high school pal, Gram Parsons, was added to the mix, then several more interview articles I wrote for Buddy ... to complete a collection of journals, a book.
Contents: Sex, drugs, rockabilly-- Waylon articles -- Jessi Colter (brief bio) -- Biographies Waymore's outlaws -- Letters from Lorene Jennings -- Letters to Waylon's fan club -- Buddy articles -- Last time I saw Gram Parsons -- Waymore's ghost -- Miscellaneous -- About the author .
Verso of front cover: Inscription to Chip: Thanks for your part in showcasing Jax's prominent role in American music - classical, folk, rock, jazz. signed your helper, Bill C.
