Making Waylon Proud

Jessi Colter's first album in 20 years, Out Of The Ashes (Shout), is a good companion to the Rosanne Cash album. But Colter is never looking for your sympathy. There's a great cover of "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35" to make that point. Sure, she's got her share of Waylon-missing tunes, but this is a strong comeback for a strong woman. And now is the time her back catalog got reissued. Never on CD, her 70's stuff is ripe for revision.
