Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard, & ray Price

Last of the Breed

2007-03-29

Mssrs. Nelson, Haggard, and Price put together a fine, honest-to-God, country record, mixing covers and a handful of originals. The standard drums, bass, acoustic and slide guitar, and fiddle works well in these staright forward tunes, song by country artists that I can actually believe a word or two from. This is the kind of stuff modern country radio should be playing. If they did, I might actually listen. And that means something coming from a kid who listens to Aphex Twin.
