Synopsis

Amazon.com
A great idea when it was released, time has diminished this record's appeal. It's got plenty of fine country numbers, but the best--most notably "Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys"--are available on records that more capably address Waylon Jennings' and Willie Nelson's individual works. For a more worthwhile slice of outlaw country crossbreeding, try The Outlaws, a collaboration between Jennings, Nelson, Tompall Glaser, and Jessi Colter. --Keven McAlester
 

CD Reviews

Excellent CD, but the record label left off a couple tracks
07/01/1998
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Excellent CD with a passle of great songs. The song Mammas Don't Let your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys, will be around well into the next century. There are other tracks equally as good. From up tempo songs like Lookin for a feelin, to slower numbers like It's Not supposed to be that Way. It's unfortunate in the record labels infinite wisdom (Read sarcastic), that they left off Gold Dust Woman, and 2003 minus 25 on the cd."
Doesn't come close to the 1978 original release.

(1 out of 5 stars)

"This collection in 1978 contained Don't Cuss that Fiddle, Crime still don't pay, and Welcome to 2003. Three great songs not available anywhere else. And, the only reason to buy this title (WAS). This pathetic release isn't worth buying. Why did BMG/RCA leave out songs? And then have the nerve to give it the same title?"
