It's a Long Story: My Life by Willie Nelson

4.0

A great biography and a very well produced audiobook. I blew through it in 4 days.

If you know me, you know I love Willie Nelson. I own many of his records (collecting more all the time) and have had the pleasure of seeing him live. To my mind, he is one of the greatest vocalists of all time. His phrasing is magical and compelling no matter what he sings.

It saddens me greatly to think that he won’t be with us much longer, but talk about using your (at the time of this writing) 89 years wisely. In a career that has spanned almost 7 decades, Willie has seen practically the entire evolution of modern music and stayed true to his creative ethos throughout all of it. He’s still touring, composing, recording, and speaking his mind at the same level he always has. This biography is a fitting tribute to his longevity and living legend status.
