Willie Nelson: Last of the Breed

The treasure trove of honky-tonk hits and Texas swing tunes that's turned the album Last of the Breed - by the legendary Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard and Ray Price - into a major-selling hit is now a once-in-a-lifetime concert event.

Taped for PBS in March 2007, at the Rosemont Theatre in Chicago during the final performance of their sold out tour that played to rave reviews, the threesome (backed by Grammy Award winning "Kings of Texas Swing" Asleep at the Wheel, led by Ray Benson, and Ray Price backed by his Cherokee Cowboys) delivers rousing performances of their greatest hits in the richest voices this side of the Rio Grande.
