I stumbled upon 'America's Troubadour' one day. I was fairly impressed with the track listing, but I did not buy it because I had these songs from many other sources.
And boy am I glad I didn't buy it! These are terrible BOOTLEGGED CONCERT PERFORMANCES AND ARE NOT THE ORIGINALS! The sound quality contains terrible echoes and sounds like it was taped in a bathroom stall.
Overall, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. Willie Nelson is an American icon, but you wouldn't know it from this set.
Not recommended.
I agree 100% with Johnny Boy (another reviewer)that this album is a total disgrace to Willie Nelson, and never should have been released. Luckily, I did not buy the CD, but I listened to the soundbites, and that was enough to turn me off. And I will also stay away from anything the American Legends label puts out.
It's too bad we cannot issue a zero rating, because one star is really too high for this album.
