Willie Nelson Unveils Title Track Of Upcoming Album ‘The Border’
Willie Nelson has unveiled the title track of his upcoming studio album The Border, set for release on May 31.
Cowritten by Rodney Crowell and Allen Shamblin for Crowell’s 2019 Texas album that featured Nelson, “The Border” is a track that describes the inner life and outer reality of a border guard.
The 10-tune project also includes four new Nelson and Buddy Cannon compositions, “Once Upon a Yesterday,” “What If I’m Out of My Mind,” “Kiss Me When You’re Through” and “How Much Does It Cost,” along with “Hank’s Guitar,” written by Cannon and Bobby Tomberlin. The country legend rounds out The Border with his versions of “I Wrote This Song for You” penned by Larry Cordle and Erin Enderlin, “Many a Long & Lonesome Highway” crafted by Crowell and Will Jennings, “Made in Texas” written by Shawn Camp and Monty Holmes and “Nobody Knows Me Like You” created by Mike Reid.
The album will be available digitally as well as on CD and black vinyl. Additionally, Barnes & Noble will offer an exclusive LP edition pressed on orange vinyl, and Nelson’s D2C store will provide an exclusive vinyl version that includes a lyric book featuring the artwork with listening notes by Mikal Gilmore and photos by Pamela Springsteen.
