About Waylon Jennings - Right for the Time
Having been tossed off their major labels, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, and Waylon Jennings have bounced back on the tiny Justice label to make some of the best music of their careers. That's certainly true of Jennings' Right for the Time. He still possesses one of the deepest, richest baritones in country music, which brings a West Texas authenticity to this batch of songs about the battle between high hopes and bad habits. On a lovely ballad about his wife, for example, he calls her "The Most Sensible Thing" he's ever done and contrasts her to the many less-than-sensible things he's tried. Right for the Time is not without its flaws. At its best, though, the album manages to combine the cantankerous and the romantic into something as complicated as real life. --Geoffrey Himes Amazon.com

This cd is worth it for the seldom-recorded Out of Jail (If I'd Killed Her When I Met Her on other albums), and the last cut about a country singer with a briefcase. Waylon chooses more mellow stuff here - next he'll be doing a Merle Haggard with standards. The cuts aren't available on iTunes.

So they got "kicked" off their so called labels,those ol' boys don't kick so easy. I "wuz" there then when we all hung out across the real opery-before GAYLORD-bought nashville, just like his family bought Oklahoma!It was who not what "you" knew then and is more so today but "who" you know. No more 16th avenue but now 16th circle,just so it goes by gaylords' OPRAY,just a money game-walked out then, but if they are doing this justice,I've got a lot of songs from long ago and more now-maybe I'll give it a try. DAMN GOOD ONE WAYLON.

Right for the Time is a terrific album in the carrer of a mastercraftsmen. Right for the time finds Waylon in great voice with song sounding fresh with a loose feel. Waylon has a great band who breathe new life into some classic songs. Waylon stated while recording Right for the Time, he felt like he did when he was recording his landmark 1975 album Honkey Tonk Heroes. A great album full of great songs from a legend!
