Willie Nelson – Live From Austin, TX (2-LP Blue Eyes Crying Vinyl)
Pressed on exclusive Black Friday color vinyl, Live From Austin TX captures Willie Nelson's triumphant homecoming—the outlaw country patriarch performing for the PBS series he helped launch with the historic 1974 pilot episode. This limited New West Records release preserves "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain," "Whiskey River," "On the Road Again," and the catalog that made Willie America's most beloved musical outlaw, performed in the intimate Austin studio where it all began.
Willie Nelson didn't just appear on Austin City Limits—he created it. The 1974 pilot episode, designed to prove that Austin's progressive country scene deserved national television exposure, launched the longest-running music program in American TV history. This recording returns Willie to that sacred ground, where he delivers the songs that defined his genre-defying career with the same easy authority that's made him a national treasure. The Black Friday pressing honors a living legend in the format his music deserves.
