About this album

Take It To The Limit unites Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson in a relaxed but assured country-rock set that leans on strong songs, close harmony and outlaw-era confidence. Issued in 1983, it draws on material associated with writers such as Merle Haggard, Dan Fogelberg and Kristofferson-era country songwriting, giving the album a broad and well-chosen repertoire. The title track, alongside songs such as Why Baby Why and We Had It All, underlines how naturally these two Texas giants could blend grit with warmth. It sits neatly within the pair’s early-1980s run of collaborative work, when their shared style had become a hallmark of modern country.
