Willie Nelson has always been an underrated guitarist, and on *Teatro* he really shines, making the instrument lilt, jolt, and croon just like his distinctive voice. This time, however, percussion steals the show. Latin and rock rhythms add new kick to some of his old tunes—\'60s classics like \"Three Days\" and \"My Own Peculiar Way.\" Here\'s your ticket to a late-night desert party where the stars, as Willie puts it, \"are raindrops searching for a place to fall.”

For whatever reason, Willie Nelson's Teatro -- like Emmylou Harris' Wrecking Ball -- seems to exist in a vacuum, completely set apart from his other recordings.
