He began playing in the 1960s, writing "Crazy" for Patsy Cline and "Hello Walls" for Faron Young. Nelson's career as a performer flourished in the mid-1970s when he joined up with Waylon Jennings and released the crossover, chart-topping <I>Red Headed Stranger</I>. It was the hit "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain" that perpetuated the then-popular image of the longhaired country boy. Willie Nelson had arrived as a country superstar. His folky, nasal inflections carried his voice through many different genres of music, including Western Swing, traditional pop, jazz, Traditional Country, Cowboy country songs, Honky-Tonk, rock 'n' roll, folk music and of course, the blues. Nelson's success lasted until the late 1980s, when some trouble with the IRS landed him in a number of stuffed-crust pizza commercials and a cameo role in the film <i>Half Baked</i> smoking his beloved joints. When the day is done, Nelson can easily be considered a bona fide legend. - Eric SheaOutlaw Countryen720Fri, 4 Dec 2009 09:07:48 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.42556&rws=%2Fwillie-nelson%2Ftop-tracks.rss Willie Nelson was one of the original outlaws of country music, and one of its most influential songwriters.
