Reissues

In 1975, Pickwick Records gained the right to reissue this album but went out of print in 1982 when US Pickwick folded. In 1999, Delta Entertainment issued this on CD (though with different cover art) for the first time. In 2004, Collectables Records issued this album with The One and Only Waylon Jennings as a two-for-one CD. The following year, Sony BMG Strategic Marketing reissued this yet again, this time with the original cover art.

The Collectables CD was very similar to a 1982 RCA Special Products double-LP release called "Waylon!".
