Currently, “American Requiem”, “Blackbird”, “The Protector”, “My Rose”, “The Bodyguard”, “Daughter”, “Spaghetti”, “Alligator Tears”, “Smoke Hour II”, “Just “For Fun”, “Most Wanted”, “Levi’s Jeans”, “Flamenco”, “Yeah Yeah”, “Oh Louisiana”, “Desert Eagle”, “Riverdance”, “Hands in Heaven” , “Tyrant,” “Sweet Honey Buckin,” and “Amen.”
One song appears to be called “The Linda Martel Show,” a reference to the groundbreaking country performer who was the first black woman to perform at the Grand Ole Opry.

“Well, I think she is,” she said. “I think she’s recording ‘Jolene,’ and I think it’s probably going to be on her country album. I’m really looking forward to that.”
The tracklist also mentions “Smoke Hour Willie Nelson,” but it wasn’t immediately clear whether Nelson was involved with the project.
