Album Notes & Community Reviews

Having successfully wrested complete creative control from his label, Waylon Jennings stripped back the slick Nashville sound for this magnificent, era-defining classic. 'Dreaming My Dreams' is a beautifully mellow, intensely atmospheric pillar of outlaw country, pairing remarkably calm, highly melodic pastoral balladry with his deeply introspective storytelling and wonderfully sarcastic wit.
