Stardust

Willie Nelson

A country outlaw tackles the Great American Songbook with a nylon-string guitar and a Hammond organ. Intimate, smoky, and impossibly relaxed.

April 1978 · RC

Find on Amazon

A gentle, nocturnal embrace that finds the universal soul in classic American melodies.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the harmonica pierces through the organ swell on Blue Skies, sounding more like a lonely train than a pop song.
Willie's deliberate hesitation on the opening lines of Stardust, where he sings so far behind the beat it feels like time stopped.
The dry, percussive thwack of Trigger's nylon strings during the solo on Georgia On My Mind.
