Willie Nelson "Moment Of Forever" in stores now!
When I first heard that Kenny Chesney and his long time producer Buddy Cannon were going to co-produce the new Willie Nelson album I thought, are you kidding me Willie is going the commercial route, I'm not sure I'm good with that. Well once I heard the disc (which by the way hit the player the second I got it) I had no worries anymore cause it's classic Willie all the way. The songs are incredible with offering's from Dylan, Randy Newman, Big Kenny, Kris Kristofferson,
Kenny Chesney, even Dave Matthews "Gravedigger" gets the Willie treatment. Of course Willie being the prolific writer that he is has three of his own songs on the album, one of which qualifies as one of my fav's on the disc "You Don't Think I'm Funny Anymore". Another instant classic is his duet with Kenny Chesney "Worry B Gone" which starts with the line "Gimmie just one more sip of that worry B gone" to get the party started. If you've ever been even a little into Willie you've got to pick up the new "Moment Of Forever", it's far and away the best outing this national treasure has put out in the past few years.
