Willie And The Wheel (Exclusive)
Willie Nelson
Released:
Feb 2009
Label:
BISMEAUX RECORDS
Even though he's backed here by veteran traditional country outfit Asleep at the Wheel, this seems as much of a partnership with recently deceased Atlantic Records boss and iconic producer Jerry Wexler, who had the concept for the record shelved for years and produced it just before his death. Similar to Willie's 2006 release You Don't Know Me: The Songs of Cindy Walker, he sings the genre of his youth with obvious revelry, and here the band's virtuosity feels every bit as affectionate. "Sweet Jennie Lee" and "Oh! You Pretty Woman" are particularly swinging standouts.
