Willie Nelson 1996 Illustration, age 63, drawn here from a publicity photo for his 44th album, “Spirit”.

Nelson is an American Icon, musician, actor, and activist. The critical success of the album Shotgun Willie (1973), combined with the critical and commercial success of Red Headed Stranger (1975) and Stardust (1978), made Nelson one of the most recognized artists in country music.

“Spirit” differs from Nelson’s other albums because of the use of fewer instruments (two guitars, piano, fiddle) and has a more classical/Spanish influence than others. Nelson’s sister Bobbie plays piano.

Nelson owns “Luck, Texas”, a ranch in Spicewood, and also lives in Maui, Hawaii with several celebrity neighbors.

While swimming in Hawaii in 1981, Nelson’s lung collapsed. He was taken to the Maui Memorial Hospital and his scheduled concerts were canceled.
Nelson temporarily stopped smoking cigarettes each time his lungs became congested, and resumed when the congestion ended.
He was then smoking between two and three packs per day. After suffering from pneumonia several times, he decided to quit either marijuana or tobacco.

He chose to quit tobacco. In 2008, he started to smoke marijuana with a carbon-free system to avoid the effects of smoke.
