Got to love this, Willie plays a little out of tune as he always has, chords? but that's what makes him so unique, one of a kind. And so funny that two great pickers standing behind him probably loving every minute of him.
Well guess the look on Vinnys face says it all ''Where's Willy going with this ?'' lol ..still a great version love Willy ...I agree he is a great song writer to be sure ...:)
Seen Willie 2 times and Vince 3..... they are both amazing.
Willie Nelson played while his band had a break .... for 15 min. he played a 12 string Spanish Guitar.... it was out of this world.... total he played for 2,5 hours with NO break. Fantastic...
When you can get up and play a solo that badly on stage with Vince Gill and Albert Lee stood behind you and not raise an eyebrow I suppose you've done something right... I once spoke to a bass player who played for willie in the 80s and following his timing when stoned (which is permanantly apparently) sent him nuts! random 7 beat bars and the like are quite normal if you're willie nelson. Just change when he does lol. Amazing songtwriter though!
Willy you can do this much better I think. But I do think you are great still.

One of the great country songwriters of all time. Right up there with Hank, and an underrated guitar pickers IMO.

One of the very best versions ... pure music from a man who acts likes he's just sitting on your couch singing for you.

Now Albert Lee is a different story, brilliant guitarist from my town of Leominster, Herefordshire, UK. Go Albert, remember Head, Hands & Feet?

Saw Willie at Busch gardens FL and he was crap. Worst I have seen.
