Quick...what was the very first country album to sell a million copies, earning Platinum status?
If you answered "Wanted! The Outlaws", a compilation album from Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Jessi Colter, and Tompall Glaser, then you win the prize.
It was originally released in 1976, but re-released in 1996 with 10 bonus tracks, which just about doubles the original album.
This track reminds me of my Dad. He grew up in the times of Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, and Audie Murphy. Those were his heroes.
A child needs a hero that he can look up to and find inspiration in.
Thankfully, I didn't have to look too far.
Thank you, Dad, for showing me how to be a hero.
