Album

Stardust is the twenty-second studio album by Willie Nelson, released in April, 1978. Its ten songs consist entirely of pop standards that Nelson picked from among his favorites. Nelson asked Booker T. Jones, who was his neighbor in Malibu at the time, to arrange a version of Moonlight in Vermont. Impressed with Jones's work, Nelson asked him to produce the entire album. Nelson's decision to record such well-known tracks was controversial among Columbia executives because he had distinguished. Stardust is the twenty-second studio album by Willie Nelson released in 1978 that spans the genres of pop, jazz, and country music. Stardust showcases Nelson's skills as a musician and his entire aesthetic - where there is nothing separating classic American musical forms, it can all be played together - perhaps better than any other album, which is why it was a sensation upon its release and grows stronger with each passing year.

Entertainer Willie Nelson described this deceptively simple album as a tribute to the music I heard growing up.

When Willie Nelson released his 2016 tribute album to the Gershwin brothers, he was showing his reverence for the Great American Songbook. But the fact is that Nelsons own works deserve a volume or two. The Texas native has written some of musics most important titles, from Crazy, made famous by Patsy Cline, to Funny How Times Slips Away, covered by Elvis Presley. And then there are the songs with which he has become synonymous, thanks to his charmingly eccentric vocal delivery. Released April 19, 1978. Stardust Tracklist. Stardust Lyrics. Released in April 1978, Stardust is the 23rd studio album by country artist Willie Nelson. It consists of covers of traditional pop tunes that were his childhood favorites. It charted at 30 on Billboard 200 and at 1 on Top Country Albums. It received universal acclaim for its blend of pop, country, jazz, and folk. Nelson won a Grammy for Best Male Country Vocal Performance in 1979 for Georgia On My Mind. It set a record by staying on the Billboard Country Album charts for ten years after its release. Rolling Stone ranked Stardust at 257 on its 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time List. The name is six letters each for both first and last name, yet there is nothing simple about the man. In his career, he has defied and continues to defy genres or classifications. But, the singer DID record this one for the 1978 triumph Stardust, and did climb to the Top-20 on the Country singles chart with it. And, if you heard it back then you know that this was one of his greatest performances. A Honeysuckle Rose inclusion, this song serves as proof of Nelsons love of the road and all that it entails. Theres something about the allure of the highway and the stage that has kept the singer going from one stage to the other for years and years. Willie Nelson was already an outlaw country legend by 1978, but Stardust, his best-selling album, made him a household name. Released long before albums of jazz standards were a viable option for artists in other genres, Nelsons weatherbeaten croon and lyrical acoustic guitar sound right at home on classics like All of Me, Dont Get Around Much Anymore, and Someone to Watch Over Me. Recorded in nine days and produced by Booker T. Jones, Stardust is one of the earliest indications of Nelsons gift for brilliant reinventions. Waylon & Willie
