willie nelson gravedigger

here or here is a link to willie nelson's newest song, gravedigger. it's actually not a new willie song, per se, as it is actually a dave matthews' song. now, i'm not of fan of his, but i do enjoy willie. i'm currently trying to amass a decent collection of his work.

now, in some ways this song has a johnny cash - hurt feel to it. theme of death, etc. but, you'll never confuse willie's staccato style with johnny cash's baritone delivery. and to me, they're both good.

so, check out willie's new song, and maybe pick up his new album, moment of forever, when it comes out on jan 29th.



finally, i don't know what it was, but something about listening to willie reminded me of an artist named barzin, who does a sort of alt/country thing. this is sort of funny to me, because on his myspace it says he's from toronto...canada. not exactly the mecca for country music. i have one of his albums, my life in rooms. i'd really recommend that you check him out. beautiful music.
