Shotgun Willie is the 16th studio album by Willie Nelson,released in 1973. The recording marks a change of style for Nelson, who later stated that the album "cleared his throat". When Nelson refused to sign an early extension of his contract with RCA Records in 1972, the label decided not to release any further recordings. Nelson hired Neil Reshen as his manager, and while Reshen negotiated with RCA, Nelson moved to Austin, Texas, where the ongoing hippie music scene at the Armadillo World Headquarters renewed his musical style. In Nashville, Nelson met producer Jerry Wexler, vice president of Atlantic Records, who was interested in his music. Reshen solved the problems with RCA and signed Nelson with Atlantic Records as their first country music artist.

  • Shotgun Willie è il sedicesimo album in studio del cantante di musica country statunitense Willie Nelson, pubblicato nel 1973. (it)
  • Shotgun Willie är ett musikalbum av Willie Nelson som lanserades i juni 1973 på Atlantic Records. Det var det första av två album han gjorde för Atlantic efter att ha lämnat RCA Records. Skivan räknas som ett av de första inom "outlaw country", en reaktion mot den konservativa countrymusiken från Nashville. Albumet blev ingen stor kommersiell framgång men fick bra kritik, och två av dess singlar blev marginella framgångar på Billboards countrylista, titelspåret och "Stay All Night". Albumet innehåller även "Whiskey River", som trots att den inte skrevs av Nelson blivit en av de låtar som starkast förknippas med honom. En notabel gästmusiker på skivan är Doug Sahm. (sv)
