Terrific duet by two octogenarians Loretta Lynn (83) and Willie Nelson (82) from Loretta Lynn's new album 'Full Circle'. Her voice is amazing for her years and Willie's voice is stronger than it has been in recent years.

Hi Kush,

Enjoyed both songs, especially the duet. American Masters recently premiered
their documentary on Loretta Lynn.

Seeing the duet song title in the thread subject line brought to mind Conway Twitty
and "I'd Love To Lay You Down": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7FspsAHqfQ.

Hi Steven,

I have either heard that song before or another song with the same melody - it sounds very familiar. The only other Conway Twitty song I know is Don't Cry Joni from a compilation album.
