Capt_Redneck Posted July 29, 2004 Report Share Posted July 29, 2004 Hi Y'all...First post on here..Just thinking what the soundtrack might be like and who can even come come close to redoing Good Ol' Boys..My thinking is that it might more of a country soundtrack with maybe a southern rock song thrown in..Any ideas??

travelerF150 Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 I agree it's gotta be mostly country but some Southern Rock here and there would make it even better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryAnne Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 Hmmm....although I would prefer they use the original Waylon version of Good Ol' Boys, if they're going to redo it (and more than likely they will) I think they should have Travis Tritt sing it. As for other songs in the soundtrack, there's another thread we have that mentions the likes of Dolly Parton, Kenny Rogers, ect... perhaps contributing tunes (new or old). I think a Willie Nelson tune would be appropriate. "New" country acts that I think would make great contributions would be Trick Pony, Alan Jackson, and that guy that sang that song that goes, "here's to the past, they can kiss my glass I hope she's happy with him...." Argh, that's gonna bug me all day now because I can't remember his name! Anyway, amongst other possible acts. Nashville could really have a field day with this. =)As for Southern Rock.....can we say Lynyrd Skynyrd?? ROFL. Little Allman Bros. thrown in as well.And above all....they really oughta have a Waylon Jennings song in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted July 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 I was thinking the same thing with Travis Tritt...He also would make a good balladeer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Posted October 15, 2004 Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 Yeah! Southern Rock and Country!!! A "Good Old Boys" version by Lynyrd Skynyrd wouldn't be too bad either! The movie makers could smash in different versions! Maybe at the end of the movie (I mean when all the credits and names are shown. Don't know the English name for it, sorry! Or is it the credits?) Maybe also a version of that song by Hank Jr. and Kid Rock. Travis Tritt would also make the job! Any Hank 3 I'd also like to hear. Outlaw Rockabilly Roxxx! Also some wicked Bluegrass stuff. Maybe with Dwight! I could go on forever...... Rock on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted October 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 A lot of great Southern Rock and country would make this soundtrack. Let's hope the people in charge of the music don't screw this up . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddiemunster Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 They'll screw it up by having Justin Timberlake singing the theme song.They'll also have Limp Bizkit, Linken Park, Korn, etc.Just kidding! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myskin Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 Kid Rock Has to be on the Soundtrack! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynyrd_skynyrd_kix Posted October 17, 2004 Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 i agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted October 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 Only if kid Rock can do a song like Picture or Only God Knows Wny, along the lines where he sings and not shouts the song.......I like Kid Rock, but I like his more acoustic stuff better....

Johnny Posted October 24, 2004 Report Share Posted October 24, 2004 Of course some Country Kid Rock stuff! Anyone knows his and Kenny Chesney's duett version of "luckenbach Texas" on the Waylon Jennings tribute CD? Kix some serious ass!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazingChevhell Posted October 24, 2004 Report Share Posted October 24, 2004 Joe Nichols the song is "Bokenheartsville". I would also like to see Chris Cagle ("Laredo") on the soundtrack. How about this, James Hetfield (Metallica) re-recording "Good Ole Boys"? What do ya think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryAnne Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Joe Nichols! Thank you! (I eventually figured out the title of the song but couldn't get the name of the singer). LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazingChevhell Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 no Prob! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted October 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 I don't think James Hetfield is the right fit to sing Good Ol' Boys.I don't know about him though. I didn't think he was as good as I hoped when Metallica did Skynyrd's Tuesday's Gone. Not a bad version though. I would love to see Rhett Atkins redo it. I love his version of the Eddie Rabbit song - Drivin' My Life Away from the Black Dog(Patrick Swayze, Randy Travis) soundtrack. He kicks tail on that song. There are probably so many people we can all come up with to re do Good Ol' Boys. And a lot of artists will do it proud if they ever redid it., well they better do it right.

BlazingChevhell Posted October 26, 2004 Report Share Posted October 26, 2004 I gotta CRAZY ideaUSE THE FREAKIN ORIGINAL!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Coltrane Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 Hey, we're easy to convince on that one. But Hollywood is callin' the shots. WB is not about to pass up the opportunity of makin' fresh money on new tunes...rather than pay renewed royalties on ol' Waylon's number.But Waylon's "Good Ole Boys" theme song will always be the true Dukes theme, far as I'm concerned. Sadly, it wasn't used in either of the Dukes TV reunion movies, if I recall correctly.Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted November 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2004 Anyone watch the Outlaws concert on CMT last week. With all the people on there like Montgomery Gentry, Kid Rock , Gretchen Wilson, Hank Jr., Lynyrd Skynyrd, Big & Rich, I think that would give us a glimpse of what direction the music should go in. That would be the ideal line-up . But the producers might go with some other artists. I guess getting the rights and liscenses for the songs is another story.

k_harvic_29 Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Here is MY idea, and in my personal oppinion, is the best idea. "The Good Ol Boys"Written by: Waylen JeningsPreformed by: Waylen JeningsReproduced by permission by:Randy TravisContribute preformance by: Randy Travis In other words, Randy Travis is the best nominee to do the "Good Ol` Boys". What y'all thank?TRULY YOURS: Skye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JESSI DUKE Posted November 12, 2004 Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 What about Toby Keith. He was on the D.o.H. Goes t o Hollywood. He would do good on the theme song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodge charger Posted November 12, 2004 Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 All this mention of Kid Rock goin' on from the previous page,ya know what I think...he would have made a good Cooter for the movie.....maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dasy_General_01fan Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 I definately agree with most all of this.....but.....I definately do not want any new songs in it! and they need to stick with the original version of The Good Ole Boys. can't beat waylons version!...just my thoughts on it!
