(Mercury Nashville) ’s “From A Room: Volume 1” is not in any literal sense a tribute record, but at times it sure feels like one. That’s not just because Stapleton did pick a somewhat forgotten old Willie hit as the one outside song choice for this, his sophomore release, or because he has Nelson’s highly recognizable harmonica player, Mickey Raphael, tooting along at regular intervals. It’s more about how many of these originals have the loose, ramshackle-poetry feel of anthems Willie would’ve cut if they’d been written 40 years earlier.

There’s also, not incidentally, the fact that Stapleton came along in 2015 and almost instantaneously established himself as the first country star that pretty much all of America could agree to agree about since a certain weed-smoking, braided Buddha became our favorite genre-transcending uniter. “From A Room: Volume 1,” arriving two years to the day after the first appearance of Stapleton’s two-million-selling “Traveller,” cements the singer’s status as the old-soul upstart — 39 going on 84 — who, like his predecessor, may be the sole representative of country music in a few hundred thousand record collections. More Reviews But focusing just on the Willie comparison neglects other things Stapleton happens to be good at, such as singing like an old-school soul man and playing the Fender Jazzmaster just like ringing a bell. Once “From A Room” has opened with a few tracks that surprisingly skew a bit closer to traditional country than the mostly Southern-rock-based “Traveller” did, he spends the second half of the record focused on his lesser recognized side as a semi-hardcore bluesman. So, basically, we’re talking about a with the pipes of a Paul Rodgers and hands of a Freddie King. (In case there’s any doubt, that is an endorsement.) “Traveller” hasn’t left the top 30 since Stapleton first pierced the national consciousness by duetting with Justin Timberlake at the CMA Awards a year and a half ago — will “From A Room” reach similar peaks?
