    This is the only concert I ever attended alone. I had two tickets, nobody else wanted to go with me. You can't imagine how many people regretted that....

      My wife, at the time!! , had the chance of comp tickets from her work. She turned them down, I never forgave her for that mistake! Funnily enough she made bigger mistakes later which she was forgiven but not this one....

    Willie's guitar solo @ 2:57 is the game-changer here, just masterful and Kristofferson backs off knowing that Willie is in charge, taking his song to a higher level. Willie hears sounds that others don't and has the gift of sharing those sounds through the guitar and his distinct phrasing. An awesome demonstration here for all of us who pick and sing and maybe write a bit. And KK is delighted to hear his song interpreted so well, transforming it really.

    What it takes to be a legend. To be one with his old, scrapped, injured guitar, to be one thing with her, to make his ageless voice the perfect company for her. Just that.

    Willie Nelson's guitar playing is coarse, untrained, rough, and more brilliant than the work of anyone with a PhD in music or the most accomplished trained performers. It is a force of nature made even more wonderful played on that antique nylon string guitar. It is perfect.

Listening to this number of Willie's is easy, soothing and relaxing, probably the easiest feeling I'll have all day long today!
    (Kris Kristofferson is a great songwriter (he wrote this song) and singer in his own right, so nice to see and hear them working together!) Willie is about 87 now, and STILL touring, still at it, bless him for giving us so many years of pleasure!

    How wonderful to see his guitar in all it's glory. You could spend a fortune and still your guitar would never sound as raw and as exquisite as this instrument does. I'll bet that it has many a story etched into the scarred, scratched and gouged marks that are the honest beauty of this gorgeous piece of history. Of course anyone else just couldn't make it sing like Willie did. Thanks for posting this video. Just lovely.

    Everything Kris writes tears my heart out. And his voice and Willies together is so wonderful along with the great guitar licks!

      Kris is pretty much by himself when it comes to lyrics. Oh, Willie's close, but for pure poetry Kris owns it. There are some GREAT country songwriters, but for sheer number of outstanding songs Kris is IT.

    IF AND WHEN we are awakened to experience life again in some future world, to hear once more the music that expressed meaning and beauty to us in this life, there is no doubt that there in the distance on that great celestial stage will stand a long-haired figure with a familiar bandana and an aged guitar, leading the divine concert in that haunting voice.

    A real master wrote this beautiful song, and a real master at picking acoustic guitar makes it a really fantastic version. Tompall & Glaser Bros also did a beautiful version with their outstanding harmony. Don´t miss that, all you lovers of quality music....

    There are some of us who had this music in our souls and we knew every word to these songs long before we ever heard them. And then when we heard Willie artistically bring them to life- well....he brings something to life in all of our souls.
    Thanks Willie

    One of my favorites to sing and and play. Was so fortunate to meet his bass player Bee Spears, back in 78. I hung out when they were in town till I joined the Navy in September of 79. Yeah, Willie smoked back then too. RIP my friend Bee.

    Willie en kris is maar net 2 van ons wereldwye lande se beste country sangers. Willie is n besonderse en meestelike kitaarspeler wat niemand sal en kan naboots nie. Is besonders spesiaal. En Kris is n Uitmuntende skrywer sanger en akteur. So ook Willie met sy spesiale stem en ook n goeie akteur. Ons Suid Afrikaners reg oor Suid Afrika speel daagliks hule musiek by bars en parties en troues ens en in huise word dit ook daaglikd geluister.
