WILLIE NELSON "stardust" cd 1978.

Willies twenty-fifth album and by far his most successful, pretty much bought him some international recognition for a couple of years.
Willie recieved a Grammy for "Georgia On My Mind" for 'best male country vocal performance' in 1979.
this is also by far my favourite Willie studio album, was also the first one i ever heard at age 11...loved it then and still do.
only one track on here that i dont like in his terrible cover of "unchained melody"...whatever possessed him to cover this track as he has appears lost doing it. much prefer him doing country,blues and jazz songs.
all-up, a very good album featuring some of his finest recording efforts.
allmusic rate this a perfect 5/5(3.0)...which acording to the pros over there is his best album.

from my library (cd)



One of the crooners of the era you don't hear much about. Counted among his fans were Frank and Perry. Discovered
in the late 40's after an appearance on Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts show. And people think American Idol started
that. Vic won that competition and Milton Berle happened to be backstage pulling some strings to get Vic his first
recording deal, with Mercury Records. This best of set compiles 25 of his charted records during that four year
period with the label. His first release of I Have But One Heart went to #7 and he was on his way. Only one #1
showing on here with You're Breaking My Heart, but many top tens. Best for me is My Heart Cries For You for which
there is no clip. It went to #4 for Vic in 1950 and was also a hit for Al Martino. I'll take either version. Vic
went on to record for other labels, but this set just covers those early years. His last charting record shows as
1969, but the man is still kicking at 84.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Cincinatti Dancing Pig

Best Track - My Heart Cries For You

(My heart cries for you)
(Sighs for you, dies for you)
(And my arms long for you)
(Please come back to me)

If you're in Arizona, I'll follow you
If you're in Minnesota, I'll be there too
You'll have a million chances to start anew
Because my love is endless for you

My heart cries for you
Sighs for you, dies for you
And my arms long for you
Please come back to me

An unimportant quarrel was what we had
We have to learn to live with the good and bad
Together we were happy, apart we're sad
This loneliness is driving me mad

My heart cries for you
Sighs for you, dies for you
And my arms long for you
Please come back to me

Please come back to me
Please come back, come back, come back to me

Quartet-Taku Sugimoto and three other people I never heard who's names I won't bother to write

For those who don't, Taku Sugimoto is a Japanese free improv guitarist. His playing is incredibly abstract and features uses of silence. Although his work is quite challenging, I find a lot of it to be pretty amazing. This, however, is just to minimal. I really am bothered that I can't get into this, it just seems like nothing of interest is really happening
