Willie Nelson Performs 'Shotgun Willie' and 'Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground'

Willie Nelson & Family on September 3, 1993 in Arroyas, California. Another from my collection.

While the first pic in the slideshow has two other notable features that might grab your attention first, after that, note that Willie's wearing a Grateful Dead t-shirt.

Just another reason to adore this American original.

I would like willie so much more if he could cut a decent solo.

Do you stipulate a mainstream, commercially-successful hit, or are you saying that he does not have a demonstrated ability to carry an enjoyable tune on his own (that might not be played by Casey Kasem)?

No I like his songs, I just cringe when it comes to the solo bridge in the middle. The man just cannot play a decent, solo. Or at least one that I enjoy.

I do enjoy Willie's music.
