Willie Nelson - "Songs"

[Shawn]

Willie Nelson's most familiar tracks have been rounded up for the compilation "Songs," due Feb. 15 via Lost Highway/Hip-O. The 20 track set runs in chronological order, kicking off with the original 1961 demo for "Crazy" and wrapping with a live version of "On the Road Again" recorded in 2002.

Beyond such evergreens as "Always on My Mind," "Pancho and Lefty" and "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain," the set features Nelson's take on "Rainbow Connection," his 2002 duet with Lee Ann Womack, "Mendocino County Line," the B.B. King collaboration "Night Life" and Nelson's first No. 1 on Billboard's country singles chart, 1962's "Touch Me."

And to think how much "unfamilar" stuff he has that a lot of folks haven't heard that is really good.............these also would make good collections on CD.

Heard some Willie Nelson on the radio this morning. A track with Paul Simon. Nelson is the last of the old country-rock generation
