For his first solo album in more than a decade, Asleep at the Wheel main man Ray Benson went into the project with a simple mission: to break out from his band, and try out a few different things. And he had just the right material for it, a highly personal collection of songs, which makes A Little Piece very possibly the most personal album of Ray's 45-year career. Plus, it has as tasteful a guest list as you'd expect, including Willie Nelson as duet partner on 'It Ain't You,' one of the last songs penned by Waylon Jennings.
