During the process of archiving and unearthing Waylon’s lost studio recordings, his son Shooter found the original recordings of lines of the Balladeer for the first two episodes of the Dukes of Hazzard, complete with bloopers and out-takes. Shooter also found the original recordings for the soundtrack to first season of the Dukes, produced by Richie Albright, and featuring Waylon and his smoking backing band.
“The Balladeer meets the Dukes of Hazzard” consists of:
Side A: The full recording of Waylon’s first session doing the voice-overs for the Dukes of Hazzard, complete with all the mistakes and bloopers, played over the music for season one of The Dukes of Hazzard. (~16:00)
Side B: The instrumental version of the music from the first season of The Dukes of Hazzard. (~16:00)
