Leather and Lace is a duet album by Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter, released on RCA Records in 1981.
Reception
Leather and Lace peaked at No. 11 on Billboards country albums chart. AllMusic: "The outlaw movement had run its course by the time Leather and Lace was made, so Colter and Jennings were free to make their overdue duet album without having to prop up that particular facade. The result is an enjoyable half-hour of husband-and-wife music, comfortable as an old shoe."
