For those wondering why this duet version of "The Pressure Is On" didn't appear on Hank's original album, it is because it didn't exist until a decade later. You will notice that Hank's performance is identical so all they did was have Waylon sing alternating lines, sing harmony with Hank and remix it but it was done in 1996 which is why Waylon sounds older than he would have if he had sang on the original. It was recorded to be included in a 3 night event on TBS hosted by Kris Kristofferson in 1997. I don't know if there was a mock duet session filmed for the TV show or not because I haven't been able to find a complete copy of the TV event. You can read about it right here.
