Monday Music: Georgia on My Mind (Willie Nelson)

 In 1978, country music outlaw Willie Nelson showed us how American music might be all of a piece. Known for performing country music, much of which he wrote himself, Nelson recorded an album of pop standards offering a playlist using a blend of pop, country, and jazz. He included two Hoagy Carmichael numbers, the title track "Stardust" and one of my favorite versions of "Georgia on My Mind."

  1. I've always loved Willie. Wonder what he thinks about tomorrow's U.S. Senate runoff.
