Jessi is the name of the third studio album released by Outlaw Country singer, Jessi Colter. It was released in 1976.

Jessi Colter, the wife of Waylon Jennings had just had a major Country and Pop hit the previous year with "I'm Not Lisa". Her previous album, I'm Jessi Colter went Gold. This album, like the previous also went Gold and reached No. 4 on the "Top Country Albums" chart, the same position her previous album reached on that chart. This album also reached No. 109 on the Billboard 200. The singles from this album weren't as successful as before. The first single, "It's Morning (And I Still Love You)" reached No. 11 on the Country charts, but failed to reach the Top 100 on the Pop charts, unlike her previous other singles. The second and last single released from the album, "Without You" didn't even hit the Country Top 40, only reaching No. 50.

This album consisted of songs all penned by Colter herself. Ten songs are included here, including "The Hand That Rocks the Cradle". According to All Music.com, this album should have had more hits from it, because they believe the songs on this third album are better than some on her previous album.
