Willie Nelson: 'Teatro'

 
 

via Cahl's Juke Joint: A rock, blues and jazz blog by Carl Abernathy on 6/17/09

If you're looking to buy just one Willie Nelson album &#151 which would be pretty silly, don't you think? &#151 my vote goes to his 1998 album "Teatro."

Beautiful Spanish guitars. Even more gorgeous harmonies from Emmylou Harris. Simple, clean production by Daniel Lanois. Moody organs. And Willie Nelson's caressing every note he sings.

One of my former students who's meeting me at a concert tonight often asks me for a list of desert island records. OK, bud, here you go.
