Willie Nelson : Phases and Stages (Bloody Mary Marble Vinyl)

Willie Nelson wants it known, despite being divorced twice and married thrice before writing the album including one that was spurred by his second wife finding a maternity ward bill from his eventual third that Phases and Stages is and was not autobiographical. The overall theme was not a reflection of my own life, he said in his 2015 biography Its A Long Story: My Life. I was simply making up a story. Sure, Id gone through breakups and heartaches of my own. What human soul hasnt? But when you make an album like Phases and Stages, the most devastating, humanistic divorce record of all time and be beaten by an ex-wife after she sews you into your sheets people begin to believe the album is about you and your ex-wives.
