As familiar and well-worn as a Willie Nelson setlist, his latest offing is actually a first-time pairing of siblings Bobbie, Paula, Micah, Lukas, and Amy. Songs are mostly religious, dealing with mortality (but no worries, there’s also a cover of “Keep On The Sunny Side”), along with a couple of other secular covers (Hank, Kris) and the album’s lone curveball – Lukas’ take on George Harrison’s ‘All Things Must Pass’ – all knocked out with the same ambling, one-take charm Willie brings to everything he touches.
