Summertime: Willie Nelson Sings Gershwin
Description
2016 release from the country icon. Willie Nelson’s album of pop standards,
penned by America’s legendary songwriting duo George and Ira Gershwin, follows
the selection of Willie as the 2015 recipient of the Library of Congress
Gershwin Prize for Popular Song. Among the 11 Gershwin classics recorded by
Willie Nelson for this album are two duets: “Let’s Call The Whole Thing Off”
with Cyndi Lauper (the song was originally introduced by Fred Astaire and
Ginger Rogers in the 1937 film Shall We Dance) and “Embraceable You” with
Sheryl Crow (the song was performed by Ginger Rogers in Girl Crazy, recorded
by Billie Holiday in 1944 and inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2005).
Summertime: Willie Nelson Sings Gershwin hearkens back to Stardust, the 1978
blockbuster album of pop standards that secured Willie’s reputation as pop
balladeer (in addition to his status as one of the architects of outlaw
country music).
