I'm trying to find out the name of the back up singer to the song "amanda" sung by Don Williams and Waylon Jennings. I heard he'd died of alcohol poisoning. I know it isn't Keith Whitley. It is a tenor high harmony. Very haunting. I've coasted thru the net and can't find the exact name. Any help with this is very much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

It's a measure of people who don't understand,
The pleasures of life in a hillbilly band.
I got my first guitar when I was fourteen,
Well I finally made forty, still wearing jeans.

Amanda, light of my life.
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife.
Amanda, light of my life.
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife.



It is haunting....Well, it's not nearly as haunting as it is unbearable....Unless you have drunk the majority of a bottle of Jack.

The only song by the name "Amanda" that I know is by Victor Jara, a Chilean communist singer who was killed days after a 1973 coup...

hello ... I want to say the woman in the back round was either Waylon's wife Jesse Colter ... or this woman who's name I can't think of right off the bat... but when I find the album i will tell you the name :)

Well, I'm glad to see some got their jollies off about "amanda" whether it was the one I was seeking or not. The back up singer I'm asking about is a male tenor. NOW< I gotta go look for Boston's "Amanda". Thanks y'all!

It may have been Amanda Marshall, a Canadian artist who was a child prodigy almost.

That's all I can come up with at the moment.
