2016/1978 - The definitive, deluxe edition of the art-country classic: produced in collaboration with the artist; remastered from the original analog tapes; first CD to restore the full track listing; first to correct the tape speed inconsistencies evident on all prior versions; and the first to contextualize the record within Allen’s 50-year career. “... zumal hier erstmals alle damals aufgenommenen Stücke veröffentlicht werden. Voluminöse und wunderschön gestaltete Booklets bieten einen riesigen Fundus an Storys rund um die Entstehungsgeschichten der Alben, dazu alle Texte sowie die ausführlichen Produktionsinfos. Dicke Empfehlung!” (Good Times, Februar / März 2017) - eingespielt u.a. mit Richard Bowden (fiddle), Ponty Bone (accordion), Joe Ely (harmonica) und Lloyd Maines (pedal steel, dobro, mandolin & guitars)
