Absolutely beautiful. Honest and amusing and simple. No tricks just good music.

Willie, thanks for making these American standards accessible to the listening ear. It’s a great set, played like you’d want to hear it in a small cabaret: every instrument, note, beat, phrasing clear and true without any added arrangements or over engineering the sound. I don’t know how you do it, but you keep it fresh with every new turn in your career.
And congratulations on your Gershwin Award!
Great duet with Cyndi Lauper

Mr. Nelson does us all a favor and does a sparkling duet with none other than the wonderfully diverse Cyndi Lauper. Can’t wait to hear him on her upcoming country album…..Just pure FUN!
Color me surprised!

Willie, you’re a legend, but I always thought of you as Country Legend. Hearing you step out of your “comfort zone”, and covering the music of my all time favorites, George and Ira Gershwin. Seems apt, a legend covering legends!
Side note to “McKavitt”, how is it possible to misspell “Gershwin” twice in one short sentence? 😳. Suggestion, read your posts before you post them.
True art

The album is what true artistry is about. Raw, emotional, beautiful. Thank you, Willie.

Gerswin would be proud. Willie's tribute is is fitting for the recent Gershin Award winner. Like his favorate singer, Sinatra, he continues to produce great music - in the September of his years! Congratulations Willie and look forward to what you do next.
