Wonderful Willie in a Great Collection

"This selection of just-perfect Willie Nelson songs comes from a largely forgettable but very enjoyable (to me, anyway) film from the 80s that starred Willie Nelson playing a country music superstar (hmmmmm, I wonder who thought of that casting?). We see him in concert singing some of his quintessential classics along with some newer material as he begins a clandestine affair with his last-minute backup singer (played by a young and glowing Amy Irving, but that's another review altogether).The songs loosely follow the plot of the movie, which is why I mentioned the movie at all--and they are just absolutely perfect. What can one say about Willie Nelson in a review that hasn't already been said, except to say that this very fine collection is, in my opinion, a must-have, soundtrack or not.I don't know where "Honeysuckle Rose" ranks on the Willie Nelson best-seller list, but I can say that it ranks in my own top 5. If I want Willie in all his glory, I turn to this CD. I urge others to give it a try as well."
