Willie Nelson - "The Willie Way" (1972) - RCA Records
Hello Friends,
Really good Willie Nelson record from his Nashville days. Much more traditional sounding than his "outlaw" sound that was peeking just around the corner.
As usual it features some great Nelson songwriting on songs like "You Left Me A Long, Long Time Ago", "Wake Me When Its Over", "A Moment Isn't Very Long" and "I'd Rather You Didn't Love Me" and a couple of covers as well, including the fantastic take on the Kristofferson-penned, "Help Me Make It Through The Night".
The Willie Way would be his last record for RCA and would also mark his departure from the country music capital to the much weirder scene going on in mid-70's Austin, Texas.
Light 'em up Willie!
RATING: 4 jugs full of good ol' Mountain Dew out of 5
