Amazing Video Of Willie Nelson in 1965 –

The Taste of Country Music Festival is a-comin', and it's going to to be the most amazing array of artists in one place that I can recall.   My personal favorite? All of them, but I have to say I'm thrilled about Willie. In fact, I remember Willie when he looked like THIS

Willie Nelson has gone through quite the transformation from his original "persona".  It kind of reminds me of what happened to George Carlin.

A friend of mine sent me this video of him from 1965.  What's amazing is his haircut and suit, of course, but more importantly that he already had amassed a string of hits, and this was 48 years ago!  What a career.  Take a look and a listen

This man is now 80 years old.  If for no other reason, this could be a once in lifetime opportunity to see a country music icon, (along with a slew of other A-list acts, of course.   Time to get "On The Road Again" and head on down to Hunter Mountain June 13th-15th!
