Album Notes & Community Reviews

Conceived as a tribute to the legendary country songwriter Harlan Howard, this album finds Waylon Jennings interpreting a deeply impressive catalog of honky-tonk standards. The heavily orchestrated Nashville production provides a smooth, highly commercial backdrop for his booming, authoritative baritone. The release underscores his commanding vocal presence just prior to his rebellion against the restrictive studio system.
