Analysis of Willie plus guitar (nelson)



“South of the Border
Down Mexico way
That’s where I fell in love
Stars above
Came out to play.”
Get the picture?
Nasal voice
Tired tenor sound.
But guitar, inflection,
Relaxation.
Nobody better. Ageless.
farm aid fundraisers.
IRS on his ass.
But still real class.
Me and Bobby Magee.
Blue skies. all of them gone.
Seven Spanish Angels.
Me and Bill.
Always pleased
Captivated.
Always will.
