Nashville Rebel is a
box set by
Waylon Jennings , released on
RCA Nashville through
Legacy Recordings in 2006. According to
AllMusic 's
Stephen Thomas Erlewine , it is "the first comprehensive, multi-label Waylon Jennings retrospective ever assembled," comprising ninety-two songs recorded between [1958 and 1994, with selections from the majority of the singer's recording career. The first track of the box set is the
Buddy Holly -produced "Jole Blon," released in 1958, while the last is "
I Do Believe ," a song produced by
Don Was that was included on
The Highwaymen 's 1995 release,
The Road Goes On Forever . The other material on the box set covers Jennings' career chronologically, with songs ranging from his years on RCA's roster to later compositions from his short-lived stay at
Epic Records ; it ignores, however, the tracks from Jennings albums released on
independent labels . The majority of the singer's charting singles are included in the package, as are collaborations such as "
Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys " with
Willie Nelson and "Highwayman" with The Highwaymen. A notable addition is the previously unreleased "The Greatest Cowboy of Them All," a 1978
duet with
Johnny Cash which was later recorded by Cash alone for
A Believer Sings the Truth (1979) and
The Mystery of Life (1991); two others, "It's Sure Been Fun" and "People in Dallas Got Hair," had never been released in the United States. Nashville Rebel was released on four
CDs , with a 140-page booklet and
liner notes by Rich Kienzle and
Lenny Kaye .
