What was Waylon Jenning's first recording label?!


Question: Waylon Jennings In late 1960, he moved to Phoenix, AZ, where he founded a rockabilly band called the Waylors. Jennings and the Waylors began to earn a local following through their performances at JD's, eventually signing to the independent label Trend in 1961. None of the group's singles made any impact, and Jennings began working for Audio Recorders as a record producer. In 1963, Waylon moved to Los Angeles, where he landed a contract with Herb Alpert's A&M Records. Alpert wanted to move him toward the pop market but Jennings didn't cave in to the demands and his sole single, "Sing the Girl a Song, Bill," and album for A&M flopped.

Sun Records run by and founded by Sam Philllips.
This company has a long history of producing such stars as Elvis, Conway Twitty, Buddy Holly, Johnny Cash and many, many others.
In fact Jennings was working under that label when he was perfoming with Buddy Holly and the Crickets, when Buddy Holly tragically died in a plane crash that Jennings was lucky not be on because of the toss of a coin.

Waylon played with Buddy Holly & the Crickets before he made it big and did all the other stuff. This time frame is 1959!!!!!!

"Magic" has it all the way.
