God’s Problem Child

Willie Nelson

A masterfully weathered collection of songs about aging and mortality. Willie’s nylon-string guitar sounds more percussive and intimate than ever.

Moments Worth Listening For
The self-deprecating chuckle in the delivery of 'Still Not Dead' that turns a tabloid rumor into a defiant anthem.
The way the harmonica wails like a distant train on the tribute track 'He Won't Ever Be Gone'.
The stark, dry intimacy of the title track where the vocals feel like they are being whispered directly into your ear.
