Willie Nelson returns to his comfort zone on I Don’t Know a Thing About Love: The Songs of Harlan Howard, an old-fashioned country album released a few weeks before his 90th birthday. Nelson isn’t the first country singer to salute songwriter Howard. Buck Owens did it in 1961 with Buck Owens Sings Harlan Howard, while Waylon Jennings released Waylon Sings Ol’ Harlan in 1967. As it happens, I Don’t Know a Thing About Love opens with “I’ve Got a Tiger by the Tail” and “The Chokin’ Kind,” songs associated with Buck and Waylon that have generated a number of covers over the years. Many of the songs here are also quite recognizable due to regular covers: “Streets of Baltimore,” “Life Turned Her That Way,” “Too Many Rivers,” and “Busted” all qualify as 20th century standards. There are no surprises in the arrangements — “Tiger by the Tail” isn’t taken as quickly as Buck Owens & the Buckaroos’ version, “Busted” doesn’t hit as hard as the Ray Charles classic, yet Nelson’s versions still follow those blueprints — so the focus is squarely on an ace band, which means I Don’t Know a Thing About Love never sounds rote. Instead, it sounds like a latter-day Willie Nelson album: easy and relaxed, familiar and fresh, the pleasures lying as much in the comfortable gait of Nelson’s band as in his idiosyncratic delivery. Happily, Nelson sounds sprier here than he has on other records of contemporaneous vintage, which gives a light, lively quality that’s quite welcome. ― Allmusic
