    My Willie Nelson story .... sometime around 1971 (give or take a year or two) I was playing my fiddle in a small club in Las Vegas, a friend of Willies told him about me and next thing you know Willie invited me to play with him on stage at the Golden Nugget in Downtown Las Vegas. How many stars would let a budding musician play on stage with them? Well Willie let me play the last two songs of his set with him and he will always have my love and respect. Willie is the greatest!

      I went to Willie Nelson's 4th of July party in Gonzalez, TX 1975.
      It turned into a disaster area! Willie said keep on singin. People were falling out from to much sun, alcohol and or drugs.
      This was a 3 day weekend, my friends kept us close to the entrance! Then someone decided to pull part of the fence down so the majority of people we're free to go. Their were cars parked all along the street as far as you could see
      Willie had so many violations, tickets for vandalized property! Loved every second of it!

      Willie started out as a jazz/blues man. Got B.B. King his first record deal, then left the blues scene for country. You can tell the jazz influence on his country style.
      Before BB King died I heard an interview on Bluesville Sirius XM where BB interviewed Willie and they reminisced about the good old days, how BB had left a demo tape with Willie at a jazz show in the 50s, where Willy was playing. It was about a year later that BB saw Willie again and asked if he'd listened to it, and Willie's response was, "I've been looking all over for you, we need to talk!" and that was the beginning of BBs musical career. It's amazing to think that Willies been around that long and has been that influential.

    Whenever I see Willie nowadays, I am reminded of his age, and weakness of health, and I worry for the day that we will lose him, similar to BB King a few years ago, and that hit me hard also. We are talking the very personifications of ICONS in the music industry and world, and I can never imagine a world without them. Seeing him with his sons, is just terrific and they are very talented also.

I loved sitting with guitars and playing. My youngest is now the singer in a local rock band. He has the gift of voice I can't take credit for. I go to their practices and recording when I can. The bond of music and good friends brings a comfort to my soul. We did a song together in memory of our lost family members and want to record it soon. This story touched my heart and I just needed to say thank you for sharing. Bless you Willie.... ya made me cry....

    Willie is a good man and God has blessed him. 'Funny How Time Slips Away', as sung by Willie Nelson and Glenn Campbell, is one of my all-time favorite songs. I listen to it over and over and it never gets old. OMG!! His son sounds just like him! Willie, like all of God's creatures, is going to die some day, but his legend will live on long after most of us have passed on.

    A real American icon. A true legend. I’m not that much of a Country music guy, but Willie is true old school. Played the same style and never sold out in order to make more money. The guy is relaxed, down to earth and seems like a good dad. His boys love him, want to play and tour with him, doesn’t get much better. He’s definitely a musician that people respect and always remember of any genre. They don’t make these original musicians like him anymore, everything now is driven by looks, electronics and song writers.

There were many years I felt like Willie Nelson was an artist none of my friends knew about much less loved and hungered to hear the way I did. But now I have to share him with the entire world. He had to work long and hard and overcome many hurdles, like the IRS fiasco, in his life. But his gift served him well and it's all okay now Willie. He is a gift from God to music, he has given the world so much and will leave it a better place for all time because of it. Thank you Willie. I think even God would say "Well done good and faithful servant".

    Can't believe he sounds just like his dad...closed my eyes couldn't tell the difference..wow!
    Keep it up..nothing better than willie..so glad I got to FINILY see him in Clements ..ca
    Sitting in dirt to hear him sing..it was a rodeo arena in summer so it was hot dusty...but soooooo worth it because my mom brought us up on his music..my son crys from blue eyes crying in the rain because it was his Grandma best song..now great grandkids to enjoy his music.

    I hope I can one day have a bond with my dad like Willie and his kids. I'm still young, almost 18, so I’ve got time to bond and mend our relationship. I hope it gets stronger one day.

    Blood harmony in the Nelson family is more amazing than most. I always thought Willie sounded great alone, but out of this world singing behind others, especially his duets with ladies. Those boys obviously absorbed that gift.

    Well, if there is one blessing, as Willie gets older, it is that his sons voice is an exact twin of his father's. So, we won't lose the Willie sound when we lose Willie himself. I have never heard a father and son that sounded so much like each other. Closing my eyes and listening, I could not tell them apart!

    True musicians truly tap into the vibration of sound resonance that heals souls and reminds the soul of the spirit.
