  • 29 seconds in...swoooooon....must be getting old......who cares? Not me!!!!

  • GOD---why do so many thousands of sad guys put pics up on the 'net below the waist????---Never in a million years can deluded images like that EVER compete with "talking eyes" and a voice that can melt your heart! Now--that IS...true SEXY to any real woman,lol! K xx

  • I'm favouriting this because it is absolutely a superb video...I have to admit to loving his "lived-in" face now of wonderful character and his voice as great as ever but watching this,it is amazing to see those lovely,intense eyes never ever lost "that look" and his voice has been forever gorgeous. Who you are,as those eyes tell us,never ever diminishes no matter the age reached...if anything,he has become even greater "quality" because of the years. That voice,of course,is eternal! K xx

  • looks like when young Roy Orbison

  • Very Cool , Thanks

  • WOW !!!!!!!!!!

  • Good Willie

  • Very very nice. Good tune Good Willy .I think the guitar was a Grammer by Billy Grammer. I'm not always right

  • wow cool! this must have been before he started using Trigger!

  • Anyone know what the guitar was? Never saw a headstock like that, looks like batmans emblem.

  • thanks for your dedication to classic country gator787. 3 cheers.

  • Always loved the clean cut Willie, though this definitely wasn't his best - vocals or fingering. Thanks for this one, never seen it either!

  • Who wrote this? Willie?

  • @TheDrCynic duh

  • @Gatorrock787 When did I say I was an expert on Willie? Way to welcome new fans. I wasn't even born

  • To me this man is one of the worlds best composers of a song, others might have a greater range of voice , but still he can put over the lryics of a song in his style like no other, a complete original artist

  • Wow this is great! Thanks for sharing. He does this really awesome on "Horse Called Music" I had no idea this song was so old. :-)

  • any idea what year this was??

  • @emailofbert 63 maybe?

  • @Gatorrock787 I am not at all a Willie Nelson expert but 1963 is a good guess. 1963 was also the year when Rusty Draper had a hit with a song named "Night", written by Willie Nelson.

  • Beyond legendary...my inspiration!

  • Thanks for the update, I am a huge fan and have scoured the net for clips, photos and articles from way back...Willie also played bass for Ernest Tubb, too....

  • The red headed stranger is, well, very good here!

  • This is a new video to me, I have never seen it before...where did you find it? Thank you for sharing...

  • @MarkEaster It's from the Ernest Tubb TV show. Willie was a regular.

  • ohhhhhhh . . . . Nelson your years has benn not spent on vain!!!!

  • This is before Willie ever had Trigger his 1969 Martin Classical. Trigger is the guitar with the hole in it .

  • Amazing! 

  • oh this is the poetic and beautiful lyricist and songwriter we all love -thank you Willie!

  • Willie was great from the beginning!

    He wrote a lot of very sophisiticated songs back then, on the level of New York writers in their outlook.

    He was the Sinatra of country then.

  • It is fun to see that he got that deep 'Willie' sound on a guitar with no holes worn in it. Sure hope they let you leave this one up! Thanks for sharing.

  • @CATniteOwl That's a Grammer guitar.

  • This sounds like his trademark Outlaw music of later years; sort of like Ghostwriters in the Sky.

  • Wow, that is one really awesome song, I love it! Thanks Gatorrock!

  • Comment removed

  • @thousandsmiles2  Thanks for sharing, Monika! This is just amazing!

  • What a performance and a great song!

  • great song! i love these videos of young willie! and what a badass guitar solo! keep it up gator uve got the best channel on youtube!

  • Seeing the early emmergence of his sound is so cool , especialy this song !

  • and haunting.

  • Willie looks like Bugs Bunny lol Nice video!

  • Great upload...Willie without Trigger.... :-)
