Honeysuckle Rose

Honeysuckle Rose is an American romantic drama film released in 1980. Directed by Jerry Schatzberg, the film stars Willie Nelson, Dyan Cannon and Amy Irving. It tells the story of Buck Bonham, a country singer who struggles to juggle his music career with his responsibilities to his wife and son.

Willie Nelson also recorded several songs for the soundtrack, including the Grammy-nominated hit “On The Road Again”, which is about life on tour. Other artists featured on the soundtrack include Kris Kristofferson, Emmylou Harris, Johnny Gimble and many more. The songs are set in a concert-like atmosphere and were performed live in front of an audience, setting it apart from most movie soundtracks.
