One of Willie's best collections! (5 stars)
One of my favorite artists and one of his best albums.
These songs are all powerful in their own way. I first came across this album when I was a little homesick while stationed in Puerto Rico in the U.S. Army back in 1993. I wore out the cassette listening to it.
Willie's rendition of "Graceland" is top notch, as good as the fella who wrote the song Paul Simon... and with equal feeling. Willie was a friend to Elvis, too, and as many of us know wrote many of Elvis' songs.
"Getting Over You" with Bonnie Raitt is wonderful.
What can I say about Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan singing "Heartland" together. They've toured together numerous times and they are very good friends, two of America's very best songwriters. This is an important song for farmers and Farm-Aid, bringing awareness to their cause on a number of levels.
"The Most Unoriginal Sin" is a very old tune that I am glad Willie Nelson has redid. His version is the best I've heard.
1. American Tune - (with Paul Simon)
2. Getting Over You - (with Bonnie Raitt)
3. Most Unoriginal Sin, The
4. Don't Give Up - (with Sinead O'Connor)
5. Heartland - (with Bob Dylan)
6. Across The Borderline
7. Graceland - (with Paul Simon)
8. Farther Down The Line
9. Valentine
10. What Was It You Wanted
11. I Love The Life I Live
12. If I Were The Man You Wanted
13. She's Not For You
14. Still Is Still Moving To Me
I could list every song and why it's good, but I'll let the listener discover for themselves why I give this work Five Stars...a don't miss!
