Even at 91 Years of Age, Willie Nelson Seems in Fine Fettle, This Time Visiting ‘The Border’
Over the past decade, there have been 17 albums from the singer, all of which exhibit the wry, deceivingly offhand humanism that has been his stock-in-trade since his salad days as a songwriter back in the 1960s.
We can readily tag “The Border” as Willie Nelson’s latest, but is it possible to identify what album number it might be in what is, by any measure, a prodigious oeuvre? Texas Monthly has his total at 152 albums; Billboard says 75; another source, 165. Do you think Mr. Nelson could tell us? My guess is that he doesn’t much care: At 91 years of age, he’s likely less concerned with doing inventory than in finding another song upon which he can leave his distinctive stamp.
