Emmy-winning star James Woods said he’s gotten a “second act” in his life after he started writing songs and working with the late country singer Waylon Jennings’ son, musician/record producer Shooter Jennings, to make an album about his life.
In a behind-the-scenes clip shared recently on YouTube, the 77-year-old actor explained how his album “Hear The Thunder Crack” became a reality after crossing paths one night with Shooter who, after hearing Woods’ life experiences, wanted to put the star’s words to music.
“And then he asked me the question that literally changed my life,” Woods said of Jennings, which was, “did you ever try writing any lyrics.”
Shooter replied, “I just felt like you had so many good stories to tell and it sounded like a fun idea to hear what lyrics would be like.”
The “Casino”…
