Willie Nelson Demo 1955 - RARE
Dive back to the mid-1950s, a time before Willie Nelson was a household name. Fresh out of college and chasing a musical dream, the young Willie bounced from job to job – bouncer, partsman, saddle maker, even a tree trimmer!
He eventually landed in Pleasanton, Texas, where fate (and a lack of experience) led him to a radio DJ gig at KBOP. With the station's equipment at his fingertips, a young and hungry Willie embarked on a mission: capturing his music.
In 1955, a diamond in the rough was born. Using recycled tapes, Willie laid down a demo of "When I've Sung My Last Hillbilly Song." This wasn't for the faint of heart – the recording was rough, the path to stardom unclear. He sent it to SARG Records, but it wasn't meant to be – they passed.
But for true Willie Nelson fans, this is a goldmine. This unearthed recording is a time capsule, a glimpse into the raw talent and unwavering spirit of a man on the cusp of greatness. The fidelity might be shaky, but the honesty, the pure Willie Nelson, shines through like a beacon.
Consider this a holy grail for collectors, a testament to the relentless pursuit of a dream. This rare gem is a keeper!
