You can usually count on a Waylon Jennings cover from George Strait, and he often sticks to “Waymore’s Blues.” But during a recent stadium show, fans were in for something special — Strait told the crowd it was the first time in decades he’s performed “Luckenbach, Texas (Back to the Basics of Love)” live in concert.
The moment was both nostalgic and unexpected, as Strait tipped his hat to one of country’s most iconic songs and honored Waylon in front of a packed crowd. With his signature smooth delivery, Strait brought the classic back to life and reminded everyone why he’s still the King of Country.
