The Willie Nelson Family CD

This country gospel-flavoured collection features definitive performances of songs penned by Willie Nelson, George Harrison, Kris Kristofferson, Hank Williams, A.P. Carter and others. Willie's Family band includes sister Bobbi Nelson, sons Lukas Nelson and Micah Nelson, daughters Paula Nelson and Amy Nelson, as well as longtime members Mickey Raphael, Paul English, Billy English, and Kevin Smith.Shaped around a setlist of x12 favourite spirit-driven songs from the Nelson Family repertoire, The Willie Nelson Family draws on deep Americana (including A.P. Carter's "Keep It On The Sunnyside" and the traditional hymn "In The Garden") while celebrating classic songwriting from Hank Williams ("I Saw The Light") and Kris Kristofferson ("Why Me") to George Harrison ("All Things Must Pass") and Willie Nelson (who penned half of the album's compositions). Willie's son Lukas (who fronts his own band, Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real) sings lead vocals on two of the album's tracks - "All Things Must Pass" and "Keep It On The Sunnyside" - while sharing lead vocals with Willie on "I Saw the Light," "I Thought About You, Lord" and "Why Me".
