I'm really enjoying this new Willie Nelson reggae album, 'Countryman'.

That's a very unusual thing for me to say.

But damned if this isn't a damn great album!

1. What are the good cuts off it?

I want to put a couple on my overnight show but I'm waiting for it by mail; what do you suggest?

2. Give me a chance to finish it, then I'll check back in with some tracks.

3. You got it!

4. Okay, here are my picks.

First off, I found the entire album (which is somewhat brief) to be great, and very accessible to someone like myself, who does not listen to reggae or country on even an occasional basis - which leads me to my second point: I am in no way an expert on reggae or Willie Nelson. For all I know, fans of either or both may hate this album and think me dumb for liking it. YMMV on the quality of the tracks I've listed.

3. I'm a worried man (featuring Toots Hibbert) 2:35

4. The Harder They Come 3:38

8. One in a row 3:33

6. Willie does Jimmy Cliff???

Wow, I'm playing that one for sure; thanks for this.

7. Sure, happy to help!

5. I read recently he got turned on to it by hanging out

with Johhny Cash in Jamaica and playing with Buckwheat Zyedeco. Wille is a a fascinating musician, he refuses to be pinned down.

8. I must agree - this is a surprising and great album.

Who would have ever thought I'd say THAT? :smoke:
