5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely the best!, July 7, 2000

Whenever I look for this CD, I can't find it, which is a crying shame. It's a WONDERFUL CD.

Many of Willie's other CDs are "overproduced". They sound too silky smooth.

This sounds more like Willie out on the back porch. I don't mean that in a bad way. It's very well done, very clear and beautiful. But it sounds like Willie and his guitar, not Willie, his guitar, a synthesizer, and a mixing board.

A MUST have for fans of ANY type music!

Even though another review here says it well, I just feel a need to add one myself because this album is too good to only have 2 reviews.

This was the first disc I ever heard of Willie Nelson back about 25 years ago, and it has to be one of his best. This is a bit more lively than Red Headed Stranger, an excellent and understated album made the year before this one, but the same instrumentation with a few more drums - a very few more. This is very mellow except for the Lefty Frizzell track "If You've Got The Money" and the "Night Life" portion of the final track. But this is an uplifting album. Willie does a fine job with all the songs, making them all sound like his own (4 songs are cover songs, but they're well chosen).

One of the highlights on here is the Medley (Funny How Time Slips Away/Crazy/NightLife) where he does 3 of his self-penned standards at once. Willie still plays this medley on a pretty regular basis in concert and the end has some nice guitar work.

I purchased the 33 LP back in the 1970s. I can say that this album has some of the most poignant and beautiful renditions of The Healing Hands Of Time,That Lucky Old Sun,A Penny For Your Thoughts, and The Sound In Your Mind.The others were good too.I cannot say enough about this album.
