3 New Willie Nelson Songs For Preview
As I mentioned a while back the Texas Yoda and Ryan Adams are teaming up for Willie’s next CD, “Songbird”, which is slated to drop October 31 (spooky!) now their label, Lost Highway Records, has posted samples of three tunes on their site for you listening pleasure: Songbird (the title song which was written by Christine McVie which appeared on Fleetwood Mac’s Rumors), Blue Hotel and Rainy Day Blues.
However, it appears you will have to offer up an email address and get a password to hear more than one clip.The record also has Willie, backed by Ryan and his Cardinals, covering Songbird Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah”, Gram Parsons’ “$1000 Wedding”, and Jerry Garcia’s & Robert Hunter’s “Stella Blue.” But, the record is not all covers. Nelson wrote the acoustic “Back to Earth” and Adams wrote “Blue Hotel” specifically for Willie.
