Product Reviews
Remember Me, Vol. 1 will undoubtedly have a lot of volumes following in its wake, since the premise is unlimited, with Willie Nelson revisiting and recording his favorite country hits from the past 70 years in his signature Willie Nelson style, backed by some of Nashville s finest session musicians. Among the highlights here are Nelson's versions of Ernest Tubb's Remember Me, Webb Pierce's Slowly, Porter Wagoner's Satisfied Mind, Ray Price's Release Me, and Merle Haggard's Ramblin Fever, although each track has its own kind of hushed and easy-flowing grace to it. ~ Steve Leggett, Rovi
Product Notes
2011 album from the Country legend. Remember Me, Vol. 1 is exactly what its title portends it to be - the first set in a series of brand new recordings from Willie Nelson, recorded with his long-time friend and acclaimed producer James Stroud. Nelson hand-selected many of his very favorite Billboard country and folk hits from the last 70 years for these special sessions. Included here are classics from Johnny Cash, George Jones, Merle Haggard, Ray Price, and Porter Wagoner. Each of the 14 tracks on Remember Me, Vol. 1 was a Top 10 Billboard hit, while over half of them went #1.
