Remarkably, this is Willie Nelson’s 69th album release! The Third album in the Trilogy about mortality, that began with “Gods Problem Child” (2017) & was followed by “Last Man Standing” (2018). The final release in this Trilogy, “Ride Me Back Home” see’s Willie Nelson on a more empathic, reflective & upbeat journey. An 11 song album, co-written & produced by Buddy Cannon.
At the tender age of 86, Willie Nelson is still living life pedal to the metal, releasing new albums practically every year. On Ride Me Back Home, a most melancholy 69th album according to experts, the pope of hippie-country has come out with eleven new songs, mostly originals, co-written with his old accomplice Buddy Cannon, blending together his usual sense of humour with nostalgic snapshots – and sometimes, realistic snapshots as well when it comes to his age and the flow of time (Come On Time). At the middle point of the album, Willie slipped in a few covers – My Favorite Picture of You, by Guy Clark, the absolute smash it Just The Way You Are by Bily Joel, and It’s Hard to Be Humble by Mac Davis – revisited in good company, with his sons Lukas and Micah Nelson. An enthralling, dusky country record. – Max Dembo
