March 8, 2013 8:07 AM 
Willie Nelson may be pushing 80 (April 30) but unlike some of his contemporary’s like George Jones and younger artists like George Strait he has no plans to cut back on his recording or touring schedule. His new CD, “Let’s Face the Music and Dance” is slated for release on April 16 and–like Willie–is an unpredictable mix of musical genres.
The songs include classic American pop tunes such as the title cut, old time rock and roll (Carl Perkins “Matchbox”), and a handful or Willie originals. Here is a complete listing of the cuts and a sample of one of the tunes, Floyd Tillman’s “I’ll Keep On Loving You”.
