Music
He had one, but it got ruined, so he was surprised that I was able to find it so quickly to replace the bad one. My husband was very happy to get this cd.


Golden Nugget!
Thanks to Mr Kerouac's ghost for posting his
enthusiastic review of this cd because although
I am a huge fan of Willie and Merle, his review
prompted me to buy it (well . . honestly, the
good price also helped the decision).

And a wise ghost he is because this cd is a gem
and it is rewarding to take a chance on a lesser
known release and be blown away by it. What can
I say? The songs are outstanding, the singing is
beyond outstanding, the musicians are top notch
and the production is sparse and beautifully tasteful.
Im not sure who the guitarist is but there are
some very impressive jazz licks layed down over
some of these tracks which surprise and delight me.

Although Willie is my guiding light, it is Merle's
voice here that puts me over the top. I have always
loved his voice and to me he is bar none the best
country singer of all time . . . "the country Sinatra"
for sure.

One more comment on the mastering of the cd. It is
very, very good and sounds as if it has been remastered
although the product info does not indicate that it has.
That means the remastered copy of Pancho and Lefty which
I just ordered should really sound outa this world. So
listen to your friendly Kerouac ghost and journey to
the Seashores Of Old Mexico.


Two Of The Greatest- On One And The Same Album.
A Great Thank You Them Two. This Is What I Call Country Music At Its Very Best.


JENNYS OPINIONS--THEY'RE FREE
ITS EASY ON THE EARS. WILLIE NELSON AND MERLE HAGGARD HAVE CREATED A SOOTHING MASTERPIECE.
