Barely sneaking in with a like grade is another of Willies mediocre albums. Never been a big fan, sorry. Only great album I know of is Red Headed Stranger. I know the guys a legend and deservedly so, just not for me. He was still at the top of his game here, with another #1 country album, #2 on the overall chart, and #1 country abum of the year. One of his best selling albums at 4 times platinum. Go figure. A #1 and #2 country single with Always On My Mind and Let It Be Me plus 3 grammys. The two best known covers were just terrible for me, Bridge Over Troubled Water and Whiter Shade Of Pale (with fellow outlaw Wayon). Some classics should just be left alone. Only two Willie penned tunes, one which was a total failure, Permanently Lonely. This quote from the allmusic review sums it up for me, "

I LIKE THIS ALBUM
　

Worst Track - A Whiter Shade Of Pale
　

Best Track - You Were Always On My Mind
　

Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have
And maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have
If I made you feel second best
Girl I'm sorry I was blind

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

And maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time

But you were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me
tell me that your sweet love hasn't died
And give me
Give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied
I'll keep you satisfied

Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time

But you were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
