THIS TIME is part of Buddha Records' Original Masters series.
Buddha Records is to be commended for resurrecting many of Waylon's finest, long out-of-print '70s albums, with extra tracks to boot. THIS TIME is marked by Jenning's classic mid-'70s "outlaw country" sound; bare-bones production and raw, rock-inflected musicianship. The title song is a forceful statement of intent, while "Louisiana Women" features a slinky, uncharacteristically understated vocal performance.
THIS TIME is the immediate successor to Jennings' genre-defining finest hour, HONKY TONK HEROES, an album full of Billy Joe Shaver songs, and Shaver's work pops up here as well. His bluesy, churning "Slow Rollin' Low" is a classic Shaver underdog anti-anthem. The bonus tracks are of historical interest, as they feature Waylon backed by Buddy Holly's Crickets, of which Jennings was a member before his solo career. They tackle Holly tunes in a country style, with unsurprisingly magical results. Thus, the reissue of THIS TIME offers an even more revealing portrait of Jennings' artistry at its peak than the original release does.
