    So, I'm having breakfast at a Holiday Inn in Bowling Green Kentucky. I'm out with a 3 hit wonder named Starbuck doing sound reinforcement for several college dates. Someone behind me says, "Can I join you?" I assume it is some of Starbuck's road crew and say, "Of course." Willie sits down at my table. WE chatted about catering connected to various promoters, bus drivers, outdoor shows, and next weeks shows. I've worked for bigger bands but the only person I ever met that was as good a human as Willie Nelson was Steve Winwood.

He was a truly great person not racist or ageist or sexest just cool and I knew him before and after his coke fueled days and he could snort a gram in each nostril and still be calm n I could barely talk lolhahahaha but Willy is ok I remember seeing his name as a child in Printers Alley in Nashville in the 50's

    Not surprised Willie was influenced by Sinatra. Unlike most country musicians, Nelson is a superb crooner. You can really hear this in his beautifully spare sound band sort-of dials it down and Willie really “works” the stage microphone. He performs with amazing dynamic range and coloration. Combined with his unique style of guitar he’s really in a league of his own...a really national treasure. For all his down-home / aww-shucks style and human warmth, he’s really a sophisticated musician.

      I always get a strange look from people when I say that no one writes a love song better than Willie. I want a man to say those words to me. Only thing is I want him to say them in Willie’s voice. ❤️

    A wonderful interview. Thank you so much. I’ve been listening to Willie for way over 40 years. I sang locally for decades of my life, everything from classical to country. I learned a lot about singing from this wonderful man . . . and from Frank too. Like Willie said, Frank’s phrasing was so good, and Willie’s too. Thanks again.

    Love Willie. My daughter loves him even more and was ecstatic when a friend gave her two front row tickets to a concert of his around 5 yrs. ago. Made her so happy to be able to enjoy his music live and be so close to him. She grew up hearing rock and roll (mostly) from me but at a young age she started liking country music and Willie was one of her favorite.
    I can understand why she likes him so much. He's very humble, positive, caring and loving❤️
    And of course has made great music!
    He truly loves and appreciates music like myself and my daughter does, and he's still rolling out music at 88😊
    Many blessings to you Willie!
    You've brought so much happiness and enjoyment to my daughter and to millions, if not billions!
