Willie Nelson Special Marks 80th Birthday

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, WILLIE: Willie Nelson celebrated his upcoming 80th birthday on April 29, by taping CMT Crossroads: Willie Nelson & Friends from Third Man Records in Nashville last week. The episode is slated to air in late June on CMT, and will honor the superstar’s milestone with special guests Sheryl Crow, Jamey Johnson, Norah Jones, Ashley Monroe, Leon Russell and Neil Young. A long-time admirer of Nelson, Jack White hosted the special from his Nashville-based studio. The Country music icon released his latest Legacy Recordings album, Let’s Face the Music and Dance, last Tuesday. Let’s blow out the candles and roll another one in honor of the legendary stoner.
