More Info:

Willie Nelson's cracked-leather voice is a national treasure, and an instrument he applies to everything from Gershwin to reggae. But he's never better than when he's singing lonely-Texas-cowboy songs, and on this album he draws from the best writer of those songs not named William Hugh Nelson: the forgotten but legendary Cindy Walker, whose songs formed the hit parade of Nelson's teenage years.

Reviews:

''You Don't Know Me: The Songs of Cindy Walker'' is an album by American country and western musician Willie Nelson. It was released on March 16, 2006, by the Lost Highway label. All tracks on the album were written by the late Cindy Walker. A video has been made for the track "You Don't Know Me" . - Wikipedia

Though luminaries as diverse as Bob Wills and Bing Crosby have recorded her songs, Cindy Walker is no household name, not even in her native Texas. But she's always had a big fan in Willie Nelson, who recorded this hard-swinging tribute, with added harmonies from former Elvis backer-uppers the Jordanaires.
