Willie Nelson One of the most important (and best-loved) figures in modern country music, Willie Nelson has always marched to the beat of his own drummer. Though not possessed of a technically excellent singing voice, his subtle phrasing and instantly recognizable delivery put him on a par with such masterful song stylists as Frank Sinatra and Stevie Wonder, both of whom have recorded his songs. In addition, his "outlaw" image -- born of his refusal to knuckle under to the soul-killing specifications of the Nashville music industry -- has endeared him to rednecks and punk rockers alike. Born in Abbott, Texas in 1933, Willie made his name as a songwriter in the 1950s and '60s, penning such classics as Faron Young' "Hello Walls" and Patsy Cline's "Crazy". He finally broke through as an artist in his own right during the 1970s, thanks to albums like Red Headed Stranger and Stardust, the latter of which featured Willie handling standards like "Moonlight In Vermont" like a countrified Bing Crosby. His poni-tailed presence has always come off affable and unruffled, even when dealing with several divorces and a massive IRS bill (much of which was paid off by the sales of his 1992 album, Who'll Buy My Memories). His latest release, Milk Cow Blues, is a mixture of blues classics and Nelson favorites, recorded with such notable admirers as B.B. King, Dr. John and Susan Tedeschi. |
