Description
WILLIE NELSON Shotgun Willie 1975 reissue of a 1973 release on Atlantic Records SD 7262 pressed at The Monarch Pressing Plant by George Piros in Los Angeles California with The Warner Bros. logo printed on the labels.
Rare and iconic album by Willie, and the first of his records to feature his own band as opposed to studio musicians. This is also the first Country record released on the Atlantic label. Willie did one more before they dropped their Country division. The record features guest starts Waylon Jennings, Doug Sahm (Sir Douglas Quintet), and Jesse Colter.
VINYL in VG+ condition with light hairlines/scuffs that create light crackle underneath the music, but barely noticeable except in between songs, nice listen!!
COVER in G+ with sticker on the front cover ("N"), the bottom seam is split 1/4 fro the opening, top seam split 1/2", chipping and paper loss on all seams and spine with some cardboard starting to show on spine, corner damage, ring wear/rubbing.
