“With his new standards album, Willie Nelson proves yet again that he is an American Classic.” — album notes
- The Nearness of You
- Fly Me to the Moon
- Come Rain or Come Shine
- If I Had You (with Diana Krall)
- Ain’t Misbehaving
- I Miss You So
- Because of You
- Baby, It’s Cold Outside (with Norah Jones)
- Angel Eyes
- On the Street Where You Live
- Since I Fell For You
- You Were Always on My Mind

what a great tracklisting. the inclusion of ‘angel eyes’ (one of my most favorite songs ever) is alone worth the price of the cd. i also can’t wait to hear willie’s version of ‘since i fell for you’. charlie rich’s version was awesome.
I love the songs included, too, Mike.
Can’t wait for this one!
