Willie Nelson’s Birthday Texas Monthly Cover
The #1 Willie Nelson fan site stillisstillmoving.com gives us a sneak peak of of Texas Monthly’s special tribute cover commemorating Willie’s upcoming 75th birthday. It will also be the first time TM HAS ever done a cover without a word on it in 35 years (well, for the 270,000 or so subscribers) the rest of the newsstand buyers will get a version with just one cover line, featuring Mike Hall’s 12,000-word oral history of soon-to-be-75-year-old Willie’s life.
This is surely one to pick up!

Isn’t that a beautiful cover! I love it. Wished I subscribed, now. It’d be nice to have one without any words. What is this — Willie’s 12th cover on that mag? Evan Smith, really likes him, I think. But who doesn’t? I wish I could afford all the magazines I like, you know?

For us in Country Music, or perhaps the Music Industry, and the world of fans, Willie Nelson is an ICON! However, the most wonderful part of this man has not been written…how he has NEVER, no NEVER, forgotten his friends. He has remembered every single individual who helped him along the way…Ray Price, Faron Young, Merle Haggard, and the list goes on and on. Just count the albums he has done with these great artists. He has done favors for friends, and friends of friends, that will never be published, nor known by his legion of fans. He is a wonderful “Musicman”…but he is an even better “MAN”…his heart is very big, and always in the right place! God bless you Willie.

Is it possible to order this Willie Nelson sketch? If so, how?

Rhonda, this is no sketch. It’s an actual photo.
