Willie needs a movie made about him, I bet it plays out like Forrest Gump.

Willie's longevity in touring has a bit to do with his lack of tax payments, so I don't give him credit for that. The man had no choice.

Willie is a great one, but Cash is the man. His music is deep and so is his voice.

Had to go with Johnny Cash as well.

Agree with that!

 

[VicAjax]

i voted on behalf of my dad... he would've picked Willie.

Really can't stand anything Johnny Cash did, so by default I chose Willie Nelson.

 

[arirug]

I like them both, but Johnny Cash is my favourite! I listen to him almost every day.

Man in Black gets my vote here.

Although Willie DID appear in Half Baked....so that made my choice just a wee bit harder...hehe

Although honestly im MUCH more familiar with JC's stuff (American series, best ofs, live concerts)...any recommendations to start with Willie?

 

[spookygonk]

Man in Black.

Thanks! I'll order it ASAP.

Cash
...just because I don't know any Nelson songs to compare the two

 

[rhythmdevils]

Willie wouldn't have even been where he is without the man in black. no question in my book. but alas, many here voted for willie!

edit: ok, so maybe it's not that black and white

but johnny's music resonates much more deeply with me

does willie have any sadder albums? the one i have sounds like it was coincidentally the happiest day of everyone's life, and then they all took ecstasy and the sun came out and Orpheus systems started raining down from the sky

Willie Nelson

 

[whaleyboy]

Willie Nelson.

The guy puts on a fantastic live show and many of his studio albums sound good.

In fact, I was listening to some Willie when I saw the poll

 

[yashicaman]

Johnny Cash by a couple of 8th notes. Both are fantastic. This one was tough. Maybe I should just cast my vote for Elvis!

Johnny Cash is my pick.
