    One of Willie's best. The country-rock style of the Cardinals offers a great compliment to a classic voice.

    I'm surprised at the poor reviews this album has received. At first listen I was extremely impressed. The album has a fine mix of tunes. Songbird (the song) is moving. I'm not a huge Grateful Dead fan, but Willie's version of "Stella Blue" is superb. This album will be on heavy rotation for me.

    It has been said that Nelson can sing just about anything--which doesn't necessarily mean that he should.

    A messy car crash of a record.
