Celebrity Rock: Just The Good Old Boys (1993)

The Dukes of Hazzard was in syndication for a few years when stars John Schneider & Tom Wopat appeared on the series finale of Nashville Now with Ralph Emery in 1993 to perform the show's theme song, "Just The Good Old Boys", originally sung by Waylon Jennings.

We start acoustically, and it does sound like Wopat was channeling Waylon on his end, then it picks up steam.



Both Schneider & Wopat tried their hand on the country charts. Schneider was the more successful of the two. Wopat spent some time on Broadway, as memory serves, and Schneider returned to television, including a lengthy run on Smallville as Jonathan Kent. Too bad they never came up my way.....
