Description

180g virgin vinyl limited edition, the complete album + 6 bonus tracks.
Now 90 years of age, Willie Nelson is one of the most versatile, enduring, and influential talents in country music. As a songwriter and a performer, he played a vital role in the development of the idiom.
Growing up in central Texas, he was impacted by a wide range of musical influences, such as the Texas honky-tonk of Ernest Tubb, the western swing of Bob Wills, and even the polka bands of German-American.
He had begun writing songs as a child and by the time he reached adulthood was starting to turn out fully realized masterpieces such as Night Life and Misery Mansion.
This release presents Nelson's underrated debut LP, ...And Then I Wrote, originally issued in 1962 on the Liberty label.
