Waylon Jennings became a country star doing things Nashville's way, but became a country legend doing things his way, launching the Outlaw Movement alongside Willie Nelson in the 1970s.

A previously unreleased duet with Johnny Cash is among the special tracks to be found on the remastered Waylon Jennings box set, Nashville Rebel, released in 2006.
 
The Greatest Cowboy of Them All was recorded in 1978, the same year the late Jennings' duet with Willie Nelson, Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys spent four weeks at No. 1 on Billboard's country chart.

Beyond such hits as Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way, Good Hearted Woman, I Ain't Living Long Like This, Highwayman and Rose in Paradise, the four-disc collection includes two early period tracks that have never been released in the U.S.: It's Sure Been Fun and People in Dallas Got Hair.

Nashville Rebel was created with the support of Jennings' widow Jessi Colter and their son Shooter Jennings. Liner notes were penned by Patti Smith guitarist Lenny Kaye and country historian Rich Kienzle.
