Last week (29 August), Morrissey surreptitiously slipped a cover of Waylon Jennings' “Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way” into his set while performing in Visalia, California.
It's not the first time he's performed the cover, but it might be the first time footage of the performance has emerged. As Stereogum point out, it's a pretty apt cover for the ex-Smiths frontman: "Jennings basically wrote it as snide kiss-off to subpar country music."
Watch fan-shot footage of the cover below.
