Not Country Willie, but good Willie nonetheless., May 8, 1999
By A Customer
Although others may not appreciate Willie Nelson's non-traditonal projects, such as this album, I appreciate his ability to span the genre's. That is why Willie is one of my favorite performers, one to be ranked up with the likes of Jim Reeves and Ray Price, and other pioneers of the Nashville Sound. Granted, this album is not hard-core country, but it is a fine piece of work!

Vintage Willie, March 26, 2009
This review is from: Without a Song (Audio CD)
I have an LP version of this CD that I have not played in years. However, I heard one of the songs from the CD recently and that motivated me to find the LP. I found it but ordered the CD as well.
It's good to hear Willie sing. I only have 2 CD's of his - Stardust and this one. I've ripped them into my PC and listen to them when I work. Luckily, I have a little place in the hill country of Texas. There is nothing more Texas than listening to Willie sing with a clear as glass voice and drink beer out on the porch on a breezy, cool Texas evening. Personal favorites are "Without a song", "Once in a while", "You'll never Know" and of course, " A Dreamer's Holiday."

No one does the classics like Willie, September 22, 2008
This review is from: Without a Song (Audio CD)
Willie Nelson is a national treasure, but his rebel image definitely has a softer side, and he is appealing to an amazingly wide fan base. This album of standards is my seventy-nine-year old father's favorite CD. When he lost it in a move recently, he appealed to me to find him another copy and I was happy to turn to Amazon.
My parents have seen Willie Nelson in concert five times -- mostly when he appeared at Wolf Trap Farm Park outside Washington, D.C. But they invited us to accompany them the last time, and he gives quite a show. Even my teenaged daughters loved him.
I recommend this easy-to-take CD for anyone who loves the "old ones" and loves the sexy growl in Willie's magic throat.
