The LP documents Jennings' outlaw country years for RCA and includes several of his most well-known signature songs, the most recent of which had been the title track of I've Always Been Crazy, released the year before. Nbecame Jennings' eighth consecutive release to reach #1 on the charts; it was also one of his last chart-topping records, with What Goes Around Comes Around, released that same year, peaking at #2.
"Amanda" had been a track on his 1974 album The Ramblin' Man, but had not been released as a single at that time. More than 4½ years later, new overdubs were added to the original track and the song was placed on this greatest hits album. In April 1979 it was issued as a single and soon became one of the biggest country hits of 1979.
The album has been 5× Platinum certified by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and 3× Platinum by Music Canada.[3][4] In 1984, RCA issued the original 11-track album on compact disc. In 1989, RCA reissued an abridged CD/Cassette version with the songs resequenced and omitting two tracks ("Ladies Love Outlaws" and "Only DadWalk The Line"). This is the dy That'll version of the CD currently available.
