2 Fellas With The Blues

In a monumental collaboration with Wynton Marsalis, Willie Nelson's drops his new album today - "Two Men With The Blues" - on Blue Note Records. This jazz and blues mash-up features all the usual suspects from Marsalis's band supported by Mickey Raphael, Nelson's regular harmonica player. This supergroup puts in notable effort over a span of ten tracks which stuffs in excellent covers of 'Stardust' and 'Georgia On My Mind.' Check this hot joint out and get back with your thoughts on this musical partnership.

Another desperate gimmick

Another desperate gimmick from unimaginative record companies - let's see some real innovation rather than tired collaborations that don't reflect musical realities. This is not what jazz needs.
