Moments Worth Listening For
The frantic banjo interplay on Bloody Mary Morning that transforms the country-rock original into a high-speed bluegrass chase.
Willie's vocal entry on On the Road Again, where his signature behind-the-beat phrasing creates a fascinating tension against the steady bluegrass drive.
The mournful fiddle solo on Sad Songs and Waltzes that perfectly captures the weary resignation of the lyrics.
