Willie Nelson - Read Headed Stranger (1975)

Though this 1975 album cost Willie only $20,000 to record, it handed him the success he"d craved after years as a hit songwriter and modestly successful singer.This enhanced version preserves the original sequence, adding four bonus tracks. One, a brief snippet of Bach"s "Minuet in G" from the 1986 Red Headed Stranger film, is inconsequential. Three more, from the 1975 sessions, are enjoyable covers of Hank Williams"s "I Can"t Help It If I"m Still in Love with You," Bob Wills"s "A Maiden"s Prayer," and Pee Wee King"s "Bonaparte"s Retreat," footnotes to the original but welcome nonetheless. --Rich Kienzle
