Recorded live at The Beacon Theatre, New York, New York on April 9, 2003. LIVE & KICKIN' was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Country Album. "Wurlitzer Prize" was nominated for Best Country Collaboration With Vocals. "Beer For My Horses" was nominated for Best Country Collaboration With Vocals and for Best Country Song. For his 70th birthday gala, Willie Nelson decided to celebrate by inviting a cast of musical stars to join him in duets on a televised concert. In keeping with Willie's eclecticism, only a few of the famous participants (Shania Twain,Toby Keith, old pal Ray Price) are country artists. How much is added to Nelson's classic "Crazy" by guests Diana Krall and Elvis Costello (hot celeb couple of the moment) is an open question; what's really important is the well deserved recognition Nelson receives from the musical world's biggest names. If you're a hardcore Willie fan, you've probably already got a couple of earlier live versions of, for example, "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain," but part of LIVE AND KICKIN's purpose is to expose fans of Nelson's duet partners to the magic they've been missing out on for many decades.
