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!

But I also enjoy some old George Jones, Tammy Wynette, Hank Jr. and Sr., Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, and of course Willie Nelson. ☺

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.
The level of love and comfort this family has is heartwarming ♥️

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.

So agree!
Spät erst, entdeckte ich Willie Nelson (und Kris, Johnny, Waylon, usw). Willie ist für mich ein Wegbereiter, jemand der aufzeigt, der zeigt, weiß, was wirklich wichtig ist. Wir haben eben alle nur das eine Leben/diese eine Chance... Diese Musik, diese Texte, kommen von so tief drinnen, dass sie begeistern, rühren, stark machen und erkennen lassen, dass man für sein Leben, seine Rechte kämpfen darf und soll. Das klingt vielleicht eigenartig und doch löst es viele positive Dinge, Gefühle und Rechte für mich, in mir aus. Ich leide an MS und oft bin ich es leid, bloß der Pharmariesen zuliebe sündhaft teure Medikamente zu nehmen, die viele weitere Unannehmlichkeiten mit sich bringen, zu nehmen bzw zu versuchen. Und da bin ich wieder - die Kombination aus natürlichen Hilfen, wie diese Musik, Texte, der Dialog mit Willie - das sind Dinge, die dein Leben verändern können... Mehr davon. Alles denkbar Liebe!

Awe Willie... I have two sons. My oldest passed in 2012. He had the guitar bug and from the very basic chords I taught him, the same way I learned, he took it above and beyond my capabilities. 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....

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.

His one son sings exactly like him. all really talented. The young one really has his phrasing.
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.
It is so cool knowing that we will have the sound of Willie for a lotta years after he is gone. I used to pull the truck over somewhere and sing Willie songs to my wife before we were married, and I still sang them for years. I loved singing them to her. I love Willie Nelson period!

These disgusting immature fools need to grow up and learn to communicate respectfully, intelligently, and morally. Profanity/vulgarity only proves a lack of self-control, respect, education, morals, maturity, language skills, and character. They are pathetic parents.

LOVE❣️. My 75-yr-old Dad (who’s been fighting non-small cell adenocarcinoma -mainly from 3 tours in Vietnam- lung cancer) has to be Willie’s #1 fan of all time, was so happy when I played him several videos of Willie & his sons tonight! Promised him I’d be ordering him some CD’s to enjoy. He’s excited to see “what the boys are going to do!!” We truly enjoyed the family interview and Lukas’ sounding so much like his Dad. He would listen and, with tears eyes, just say, “DAMN!!!” Made my heart ❤️so happy😊❣️❣️❣️

Went to a Willie Nelson concert in Lubbock many many years ago in a huge coliseum. Walked in there were no chairs, just wall to wall standing people! The covert was over 2 hours and nobody left. The men lined up in front of the stage and one by one each would hand their cowboy hat or cap to a body guard who would hand it to Willie while he was singing and he would wear it for a bit and take the next one. What a thrill for those men. Bet they still have them in a special place today. Love Willie.
❤its wonderful seeing Willie & his Sons together. Keep jamming 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶❤️❤️❤️
Willie is the last living country music Legend.

Willie Nelson is a national treasure. Still playing and singing. Hats off to Willie!
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!
Love it! Willie and his boys are a Texas legend! Luckenbach, Texas happens every year and is attended by a thousand people! Farm Aid is another of Willie’s donations. Wonderful! ♥️

Nice to see that Willie held onto the relationship with his sons. It's not just the road and this is what he does. Being a father is pretty important, a much higher calling. Family is everything, the best investment on earth. It pays and pays. Our goal is to be a legend with God and those who knew us, the rest is gravy.
There will never be another true to life legend like Willie. The man has seen the world change and if it's out there he's seen it or done it. I know a lot of ya'll wont know who this is, but I grew up with wild bill emerson in my family. He's wrote country songs for many legends like george jones. So, even though I'm not a huge country person, those old country hero's are in my blood through and through and Willie is the last of em. He is a bonafide treasure.
“Willie and the Boys” is one of my new favorite records. Highly recommended for it’s song selections, picking and harmonies. Love it, guys. Thank you!
Of all the amazing musicians this world has lost in recent years, it's always sad and heartbreaking each time. I hope it's far off, but it is certainly inevitable that one day we will lose Willie. There never has been and never will be another like him. He has truly transcended all musical boundaries, and touched the hearts and ears of people from all walks of life. He is an American treasure, but h is absolutely a gift to the entire world. We love you Willie. Keep on rocking!

Beautifully said. I've loved Willie's music through out my life. He was a favorite of my dad's. It was something we shared. He is so incredibly talented, in so many ways, too, with music, of course, but in acting and invention, as well. He truly is a gift to us who love him, so dearly. I love that his boys have embraced their dad's gentle ways and his love of music and peaceful, easy living. I love you, so much Willie. I love you, Lukas and Micah. May the blessings of your gifts to each other and us, continue on into many, many generations.

Donald Shores, you expressed my thoughts perfectly. I'd like to add it warms my heart and soul to see him surrounded and loved by his mate and sons. 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".
I hope the kids keep it all alive. Call themselves " The Willy Nelson Band" They've earned the right as part of the legacy and can deliver. So willie, get on it and cut an album with them and give them some artistic lead to express everything they learned from you with you. Thanks for all the music.

He sounds EXACTLY like his dad! I saw him for the first time on the Tony Bennett tribute concert. I didn't know who he was, as I missed his introduction. When I heard him sing, I looked on Google to see if Willie had a son that sang. Sure enough. That's who it was. I knew it had to be.

Willie's got quiet the legacy! I became a fan when I lived in Corpus Christi, Texas in 1975.
