Bluegrass' captures a dozen classic Willie Nelson compositions, including 'On the Road Again', 'Yesterday's Wine', 'Still is Still Moving to Me', 'Good Hearted Woman' and more, freshly interpreted by Willie and an ensemble of crack players. In a seven decade career that has seen him explore genres from one end of the musical spectrum to the other, this is his first full album dedicated to genre. Willie and longtime producer Buddy Cannon, picked personal and fan favourite compositions from across his career to perform anew for this salute to the Appalachian old-time string band music which profoundly influenced Willie's songwriting sensibilities and the direction of American country music in general. Using his own catalogue as source material, Willie chose songs combining the kind of strong melodies, memorable storylines and tight ensemble-interplay found in traditional bluegrass interpretations of the roots of American folk songs. With 'Bluegrass', Willie uncovers new truths in his own songs.
