For fans of: Country Crooning

What they're saying: Willie Nelson takes another crack at an album full of standards on That’s Life, focusing this time on Sinatra tunes, and a review from Spectrum Culture compares it pretty favorably to his best known such effort: “That’s Life is of such uniformly high quality that it easily ranks as some of his best 21st-century offerings and, while perhaps not quite as monumental as Stardust, can be considered of a piece with that landmark recording.” Neil Spencer’s review in Uncut Magazine hones right in on how Willie’s style is a perfect compliment to Sinatra’s “Nelson has always taken liberties with timing, hanging back on a word or phrase or delivering it early – he has often been accused of ‘talking the lyrics’ rather than singing them… The mutual admiration that developed between Sinatra and Nelson was founded in part by their vocal looseness.”

What we say: One American icon (Willie Nelson) covering the songs made famous by another American icon (Frank Sinatra). Only Willie can match Ol' Blue Eyes unique phrasing on this album of undisputable songbook classics. Great record cover homage too!
