What is Nelson's true impact? I'll discuss Merle Haggard's music and how it influenced Nelson. I'll then cover some of Nelson's most enduring songs, including "Beer For My Horses," Tall Lies, and "Summertime."

Stardust

Stardust by Willie Nelson received critical acclaim but it may not live up the high expectations. Stardust, Nelson’s first major album, was a commercial smash and was inducted in the Grammy Hall of Fame for 2015. It was also Nelson's most intimate album. Nelson had always wanted to be an artist, but the Nashville music industry relegated him to the role of songwriter.
