Country outlaw Waylon Jennings (1937-2002) recorded for A&M Records during 1963 and 1964.  This copy of DON'T THINK TWICE, released in 1969 following Waylon's first Grammy nomination, was signed prior to a free outdoor concert in 1991.  His lovely wife, singer-songwriter Jessi Colter, graciously added her signature [top right].  Herb Alpert played trumpet on "Four Strong Winds."
Waylon and Jessi recorded primarily for RCA and other labels in the 1970s, but returned to A&M for this Civil War concept album (SP/CD 6004) released in 1978.  The stellar cast also included John Dillon and Steve Cash of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils, Bernie Leadon (Eagles and Dillard and Clark Expedition), and last but not least, Eric Clapton.

Here's Waylon doing a Buddy Holly song with Herb Alpert's TJB in background. This is a Roy Orbison-type operatic ballad, also not on Waylon's A&M album.

Another non-LP Waylon single, apparently once owned by a radio station.  The other side of this single is "The Race is On" from SP4238.
