Willie Nelson "Spirit"

LP (NEW) - Vinyl, Island Records, Germany, 2023, 0602455631626, 180g Vinyl, Remastered, Reissue

Spirit is the 44th studio album by Willie Nelson, released in June 1996, that features a stripped-back, acoustic sound with Spanish and classical influences. The album is highly regarded by critics for its emotional depth and personal songwriting, with all songs written by Willie Nelson himself. It features a sparse accompaniment of only Willie Nelson on lead guitar and vocals, his sister Bobbie Nelson on piano, Johnny Gimble on fiddle, and Jody Payne on rhythm guitar. Spirit was considered a departure from the mainstream country music of the time due to its minimalist production and melancholic themes. It received critical acclaim for its raw, personal feel and Nelson's skilled guitar work, often cited as one of his best and most moving albums by fans and reviewers.
