Willie Nelson

Oh What A Beautiful World

£12.99

Released: 25th April 2025. Willie Nelson's 77th solo studio album and 154th album overall focuses on the songs of Rodney Crowell, the latest in Nelson's storied history of focusing entire albums on a single songwriter's work. Willie Nelson and Rodney Crowell are two Texas singer-songwriters whose careers have intersected often since Crowell first heard Nelson's earliest songs on the radio and saw his shows in Houston in the mid 1960s. Willie first recorded a Rodney Crowell song in 1983 and last did so 40 years later for 2024's 'The Border'. Produced by Nelson's longtime collaborator Buddy Cannon and featuring an amazing backing band of Nashville gunslingers accompanying Nelson's vocals and inspired guitar work on Trigger, the album handpicks 12 songs from the last 50 years, including the title track as a duet between Nelson and Crowell. From early tracks like 1976's 'Banks of the Old Bandera' (recorded by Jerry Jeff Walker) and 1981's 'Shame On the Moon' (a hit for Bob Seger) to '90s tracks like 'What Kind of Love,' (co-written by Will Jennings based on a Roy Orbison melody), 'Stuff That Works' (co-written with Guy Clark), from early 2000s cuts written for hit albums by Keith Urban and Tim McGraw to four cuts from Crowell's beloved 2010s albums and a cut released as recently as 2021.
