WTF with Marc Maron Podcast
Episode 1597 - Dwight Yoakam

suited to do what I do. I'm doing Bill Monroe and Merle Haggard. You got a mandolin player? No, but I've got just hillbilly me on the guitar, lead guitarist, bass and drums. And we're playing, I couldn't, I look back and I thought, well, I wasn't good enough to play the Thursday, Friday, Saturday slot at the corral. But I was good enough to do the Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.

So I was doing the off nights. And I was driving air freight in the daytime, go out there at night and start at nine. Playing covers? Nine till two. But my covers were hardcore country. And it's right ahead of the whole urban cowboy thing that happened. Ich glaube, das war 1979 oder so.

Ja, aber ich würde nicht die Top-40-Version von Country machen. Ich habe nicht Looking for Love oder Urban Cowboys gemacht. Ich habe Haggard gemacht, George Jones, all diese Sachen. Aber die Leute wollten daran tanzen und es liebten sie. Und ich habe ein Jahr da drin gespart. Ein solches Jahr mit den Off-Notes. Fünf Sets pro Nacht. Und, äh, du weißt, du wächst dich auf.

Ich habe andere Musiker getroffen und war dort am Tag, an dem John Lennon getötet wurde. Ich erinnere mich an Delaney Bramlett. Ja. Äh, der war einer der großartigen Musiker in Kalifornien. Er kam aus dem Süden. Er und Leon Russell formten die Band für Shindig.

Ich wusste es nicht an der Zeit. Aber er kam und schreckte, weil er John Lennon kannte. Ja, richtig. Das ist das, was ich das Jahr mache. Und ich bin... getting my sea legs and meeting more musicians. And a guy, Boo Bernstein, said, I'm playing with this guy, you gotta come meet him over in the West Valley. He's playing at this place called Wild Bill's Roundup. And I go over in Chatsworth, right?

He starts talking, he's curious about me. And he's from Detroit. And it leads to Ja. Ja. Thank you, Richard. This guy, I could cut songs, because he had spec time.
