He had been declining for a while. He had such a calming soulfull voice.

And yet Willie Nelson who just turned 99 refuses to die.

Good genes or good docs?

I read this earlier today on Reuters.

I guess you could say "I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.."

I Can't Write Left-Handed is another underrated Withers tune.


Man, what an incredibly smooth voice. He was one of my mom's favorites and his voice brings back so many childhood memories because of her listening to him so much.

He had such a versatile song-writing ability, it's hard to believe some of his songs are from the same dude.

Didn't really recognize how great he was until the last few years or so, but his music was always in the background of my growing up.
