Willie Nelson to release reggae album tomorrow

Country music legend Willie Nelson, who performed in concert yesterday in nearby Schaumburg (alongside Bob Dylan) will release a reggae album tomorrow.

I could make this stuff up. but that's too much work.

From AP:

While the music on "Countryman" might raise the eyebrows of country purists, so will the cover. With green marijuana leaves on a red and yellow background, the cover art makes the CD look like an oversized pack of rolling papers.

More....When asked why he hasn't played any songs from his upcoming reggae album, this was Nelson's response:

"I keep forgetting," Nelson said a few days later by telephone from the road, which he's called home for most of the last 30 years.
