I miss all of those great songs that he wrote and preformed. The old porch swing and so on.

Yes I know that. Thank you. I was responding to those who thought the Martin he was playing in this video was Trigger. Its not Trigger.

It's this one, 1941 Martin 000-18 Natural Acoustic Guitar, #79925, belonged to his wife, Shirley Caddell Collie Nelson.

@ronaldt491 : No its not Trigger . He got Trigger in 1969 and Trigger didn't have a pick gaurd . Trigger is a classical guitar and classical guitars didn't have pick gaurds .

Willie's singing and guitar work have come a long way since this appearance. But even in this video he still has wonderful phrasing - not to mention being an excellent songwriter.

GW, you;re right. RHS was 1975.You can still look to 72-73 as the transition from the 1971 'Yesterday's Wine' Willie to the 'Shotgun Willie' of 1973. Take a look at the album covers. What I saw him do on stage in Lubbock in 1972 was extraordinary.

Willie made the physical transition from the thin black-tie man to Woodstock Willie in 1972. I saw him and Paul English on tour in 1972 dressed in suit and tie much like in this video. In 1973 Willie released The Redheaded Stranger and the change in his appearance was shocking. So, the transition was 1972-1973.
