They were ³Stardust² and ³Georgia on My Mind,² a pair of Hoagy Carmichael
standards that Mr. Nelson long ago personalized. He sang them both with a
forthright intimacy, as if telling a cherished bedtime story. And the band
was right there with him, emphasizing how the blues are as much a feeling as
a form.
I fell in love with Nelson's "Stardust" while attending USCLB in the last
70's. We had a group and we all loved the album. I recently found it on E-bay,
re-mastered and on CD of course and love it still. Since then, Nelson has
been one of my favorite current musicians.
