Willie Nelson was in town this week. He played for an excited group on Oct. 10 at Caldwell Auditorium. If you missed the show, like I did, then you may be jonesing for some of his music. But here is something a little different than his hit song "On the Road Again."
"Pancho and Lefty," "Blue Eyes Cryin' in the Rain," "On the Road Again," "Whiskey River," "Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to be Cowboys," "Seven Spanish Angels" -- do I need to continue? "Georgia on My Mind," "My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys," "Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground."

Only Willie Nelson could cover a Pearl Jam tune and make it sound darn close to better than the original. That’s what the iconic singer did with his version of ‘Just Breathe,’ which is included on his new ‘Heroes’ album.

As if you didn’t already love the song enough, the Nelsons released a beautiful music video for ‘Just Breathe’-and it’s kind of a tearjerker.
