Greatest Hits is a compilation album by American country music artist Waylon Jennings, released in 1979 by RCA Records.
"Amanda" was originally issued on Jennings' 1974 album The Ramblin' Man, but had not been released as a single at that time.
More than 4½ years later, new overdubs were added to the original track and the song was included on this greatest hits album.
"Amanda" was issued as a single simultaneously with the album in April, 1979 and the song soon became one of the biggest country hits of the year.
[3][4] RCA first issued the original 11-track album on compact disc in 1984; in 1989, RCA reissued the album on CD and cassette with the songs resequenced and omitting two tracks ("Ladies Love Outlaws" and "Only Daddy That'll Walk The Line").
