Not counting the ''Mackintosh & T.J.'' soundtrack album and the ''White Mansions'' concept album, ''Greatest Hits'' became Jennings' eighth consecutive release to reach #1 on the charts; it was also one of his last chart-topping records, with ''What Goes Around Comes Around'', released that same year, peaking at #2. "Amanda" had been a track on his 1974 album ''The Ramblin' Man'', but had not been released as a single at that time; two other tracks, "I'm a Ramblin' Man" and "Rainy Day Woman," were. More than 4½ years later, new overdubs were added to the original track and placed on his first greatest hits album. In April 1979 the song was issued as a single, and it soon became one of the biggest country hits of 1979. Willie Nelson appears on three cuts on the original LP. The album has been 5x Platinum certified by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and 3x Platinum by Music Canada.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=RIAA searchable database )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Music Canada searchable database )〕 In 1984, RCA issued this album on CD with all 11 tracks but in 1989, RCA/BMG issued an abridged version of this album, this version is currently available. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Greatest Hits (Waylon Jennings album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
