All Music Guide Review

Waylon Jennings' later albums have consistently been more interesting than those of most others from his aging generation, and Right for the Time -- his first for his new label, Justice Records -- is one of his strongest of the '80s and '90s. His voice is rich and beautiful, his arrangements are spare and casual, and his songs explore life, love, and dreams with honesty and wisdom. He waxes nostalgic for small-town life on "Cactus Texas" and mixes bitter sentiments with a snap-crackle wit on "Kissing You Goodbye." Never shy about his feelings, Waylon again comments (as he has on recent albums) on the "new hats" in country music, doing so with good-natured sarcasm on the spoken word acoustic song "Living Legends, Pt. 2." ~ Kurt Wolff, All Music Guide
