5.0 out of 5 stars
Quintessential Willie, March 2, 2002
If you need a quick hit of Willie Nelson, your time is short, you have things to do...but you MUST HAVE the best of the best, this is the CD for you.Every track on the CD is an old favorite, and there is simply nothing better. These are all vintage Willie Nelson greats, from "On the Road Again" to "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain." Particularly poignant just now is "Pancho and Lefty," sung with Merle Haggard. Nelson has, of course, sung these songs many times, live and recorded, and they appear on other CDs. But the versions gathered here are laid back, casual, and wonderful. It's almost like having him sitting in your livingroom, maybe sharing a brew or two, putting his booted feet up , and strumming his guitar, completely relaxed--completely wonderful. My CD library would not be the same without this quintessential Willie Nelson must-have collection. I recommend it highly!
