Willie Nelson Releases Who'll Buy My Memories Video
. A video for the song, which premiered today (Nov. 24) on his Vevo page, features the Nelson siblings performing an unhurried version of it in a homey, living room-style setting. Nelson has recorded the song before, most notably as the title track of the (superb) solo acoustic collection The IRS Tapes: Who'll Buy My Memories? Profits of which went to pay off a massive IRS debt he had at the time. It's a quiet, reflective song that speaks of a life "sprinkled with the blues" in the wake of a broken love affair. Where Nelson's 1992 solo rendition felt lonely and edged with cold, the new version imbues the song with hints of warmth, emphasized in part by bringing Bobbie Nelson's piano into the mix. Additional songs on December Day include Django Reinhart's "Nuages" and a couple of Irving Berlin songs ("Alexander's Ragtime Band" and "Always") as well as several vintage Nelson compositions, among them "I Let My Mind Wander," "My Own Peculiar Way," "Sad Songs and Waltzes" and "December Day".
