Free Music Notes for Sound in Your MindFree Music Review: A great album from the seventies Hit: 5 Stars
Willie has recorded so many great albums that it is easy to forget how good some of them are. This one is mellow except for two songs. One of these is a revival of the old Lefty Frizzell classic, If you've got the money I've got the time. The other is Night life, the final segment of a medley of songs (the others being Funny how time slips away and Crazy) that Willie wrote in the early sixties and which helped establish his name as a songwriter.
The set opens with That lucky old sun, a song that provided Frankie Laine with an American number one hit in 1949. Amazing grace has been covered by countless singers but Willie's version is just what you expect - excellent. A penny for your thoughts (an original song) is very sad. The healing hands of time, a ballad about recovering from sadness, is a classic. Thanks again, I'd have to be crazy and the title track are all excellent.
Perhaps this is not Willie's best album but it has a little of everything - pop oldies, country oldies, re-recordings of his own oldies and original songs. It definitely belongs in the collection of any Willie Nelson fan.
Free Music Review: Great Willie Album! Hit: 5 Stars
I'm usually too lazy to right alot of reviews, but all of the reviewers are right. The Sound of Your Mind is an awesome album and it deserves a great review.By the way there's also a great version of Amazing Grace on here, best I ever heard, great one to add to any collection. I still have the vinyl and put it on occasionally.
