Contents

Waylon's posthumous album reveals his final recordings of unheard material. Much of this album was recorded in the mid-to-late 1990s but was forgotten about until about 2007. Shooter and his band went in the studio to augment the original recordings. Dave Cobb produced.

The song "Outlaw Shit" is a reworked version of "Don't You Think This Outlaw Bit's Done Got Out of Hand". [1]
