It's About Time is a progressive country album by Jerry Jeff Walker. Recorded after Walker's battle with throat cancer, it is the final album released before the singer-songwriter's death in 2020. [2] Walker released the album exclusively on his website through his independent record label, Tried & True Music.
Some material on It's About Time debuted in live performances prior to appearing on the record, including "California Song," one of many tracks that Walker wrote about his wife Susan. The Texas Historical Association's biography of Walker, written by his former bandmate Craig D. Hillis, notes the album's "highly reflective, autobiographical" nature. [3] Like many Walker releases, however, It's About Time features both original songs and covers, including a version of "Somethin' Bout a Boat" by Jerry Jeff's son Django Walker.
