I saw Willie just before the outlaw movement. He is one singer that does not have to work hard to sing really well.

at one time, Willie was known for his short hair and desire to beat up "hippies"

His phrasing is remarkable, a very gifted writer as well.

Is that transformation the result of all that weed or all those years?

Likely both.

Hey, we were all young once. He was 32 in that video in '65. He's 78 now.

I think most music is junk, pop, country et al, with some exceptions. Willy, Merle, George Jones are a few of them in country.

Reminds me of the same type of transformation George Carlin went through.

Here's irony for you.. Willies ex daughter in law (the mother of his grand daughter) runs a drug sniffing dog business !!!!! Wonder if she trains them at Willies house!

I don't like much country. Very little, in fact. But man, I sure to like Willie.
