We’re mighty excited about this album. Willie Nelson has teamed up with Asleep at the Wheel to record on album of western swing classics. What’s more, the songs were all personally selected by the late, great Jerry Wexler! We unfortunately don’t have an mp3 to share, but check out the album art and the tracklist below. Plus, check out the talent they have also contributing!
Willie and the Wheel have a short tour scheduled along the East Coast during February, but unfortunately no Austin dates. You can pre-order the album now at their new website, and its official release will be February 3.
