The best way to define one’s self — particularly laboring beneath a shadow as large as the Red Headed Stranger’s — is simply to go out and do. That’s been’s plan for the last decade, culminating in “Turn Off the News ,” his most polished and assured effort to date.
Nelson’s most striking effort comes halfway through the album, and risks being lost, were it not so immediately fetching. The loping folk trot “Mystery” is a bittersweet tune that acknowledges love’s unsteady terrain. This free-living attitude is centerpieced by the album’s two strongest cuts, “Lotta Fun” and the title track, both bristling with Nelson’s pliant charm and his band’s crisp playing. The former is a greasy, country-fried amble, mildly evocative of Alabama Shakes if they lived in the weed-appropriate alternative to Margaritaville, aided by Price’s guest turn.
