The Resume

Why she might be annoying:

    Before becoming Jessi Colter, she recorded without success as Miriam Eddy.
    She adopted her stage name from a great-great-grandfather who rode with Jesse James.
    'I'm Not Lisa' was her only song to cross over to pop success.

Why she might not be annoying:

    She contributed to 'Wanted: The Outlaws,' the first country album to go platinum.
    She said of her marriage to Waylon, 'It was a wild ride and I'd do it again.'
    After a two decade hiatus, she recorded the critically-praised comeback album 'Out of the Ashes.'
