Colter, Jennings, Tucker and Cook perform “Why You Been Gone So Long” • FOR ‘OUTLAWS AND ARMADILLOS’

A powerful lineup of Jessi Colter, Shooter Jennings, Tanya Tucker, and Elizabeth Cook perform “Why You Been Gone So Long,” written by Mickey Newbury, at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum during the opening concert in 2018 for the museum’s major exhibition “Outlaws & Armadillos: Country’s Roaring '70s.”

The Outlaw phenomenon increased country music’s audience in the 1970s, led by pacesetters such as Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, Guy Clark, Bobby Bare, and many others—a time defined by artists in Nashville and Austin demanding creative freedom to make their own music. In this series, we mark memorable performances from that opening concert. The exhibition closes June 7.
