WILLIE NELSON Red Headed Stranger (50th Anniversary Edition 2025 UK/EU 15-track LP pressed on Gold Vinyl. A landmark in American music, Willie Nelson's 1975 album Red Headed Stranger broke every rule of country tradition. A sparse, mystic concept album with spiritual overtones, it defied commercial expectation - and in doing so, became Nelson's breakthrough, turning him into a household name and establishing Austin, Texas as the epicentre of the Outlaw Country movement. Self-financed and uncompromising in vision, the record became a surprise double-platinum smash, reaching Nelson's largest audience to date and yielding his first No. 1 country single with the enduring Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain. To celebrate its 50th anniversary this limited edition reissue features gatefold packaging with a die-cut picture frame cover, hype sticker & factory sealed. Recommended)
