 Hmmm ..... Maybe you had to be there?! July 28, 2008

I bet this was a fantastic live show - shame it sounds so flat on the CD!
Unlike the other reviewer I came to this recording as a fan of Willie Nelson. I think Willie sounds pretty good on the whole - I just wish there was a bit more of him! His regular harmonica buddy, Mickey Raphael, is the real star of the show for me - his soloes shine above everyone else!
The first two tracks, "Bright Lights, Big City", and Willie's own "Night Life", are the highlights for me. The lowest points being the two tracks associated with Hank Williams ("My Bucket's Got a Hole in It" and "Nobody's Business"), which, for me, don't seem to work in this jazz setting.
All in all, it's not a terrible album but certainly not one that will much play from me!

I came to this as a fan of Wynton Marsalis, and as expected his playing on the album is superlative. My problem is,unfortunately, with Willie Nelson's contribution - with a high class backing band, he sings bland blues. When I consider my purchase, that makes 3 of us with the blues.
