Willie Nelson – Stardust (Mobile Fidelity Silver Label 33RPM LP)
Defying Nashville convention, Willie Nelson turned to the Great American Songbook for 1978’s Stardust—a bold move that became his most commercially successful album, spending over a decade on the Country charts and selling more than five million copies. With unforgettable renditions of “Georgia on My Mind,” “Blue Skies,” and “All of Me,” Nelson redefined what country could be, blending pop, jazz, folk, and blues with unrivaled phrasing and soul.
Mobile Fidelity’s numbered-edition Silver Label 33RPM LP, mastered from the analog copy and pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing, brings out Booker T. Jones’ lush production and Nelson’s intimate, expressive vocals with warmth, clarity, and depth. A timeless crossover masterpiece, Stardust belongs in every serious collection.
