Nelson receives long overdue Gershwin Prize BY KEVIN MCDONOUGH “The life I love is making music with my friends,” is a lyric from “On the Road Again,” a popular 1980 hit for Willie Nelson, whose life is celebrated in “Willie Nelson: The Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song” (9 p.m., PBS, TV-PG, check local listings). Taped last November, the special honors the prolific, perennially touring singer/songwriter who redefined country music even as he has expanded his audience. Nelson performs many of his signature hits along with Edie Brickell, Leon Bridges, Rosanne Cash, Ana Gabriel, Jamey Johnson, Alison Krauss, Raul Malo of The Mavericks, Neil Young and Buckwheat Zydeco. He is also joined by fellow Gershwin Prize recipient Paul Simon. I’m no musician or music critic, but I have always found Nelson’s voice and delivery to be utterly distinctive. The moment you hear him sing one note, you know it’s Willie Nelson. Nobody else sounds like him. Not unlike Fred Astaire, another unique and distinctive performer, Nelson’s delivery often blurred the line between singing and talking. Even when delivered by more melodic voices, his early songwriting hits had the aura of the confessional, the sound of a lonely soul talking to himself. His first big hit, “Hello Walls,” a No. 1 hit for Faron

CULT CHOICE Young in 1961, spoke of the solitary confinement of the lovelorn. “Crazy,” a 1961 hit for Patsy Cline, speaks for itself, and Ray Price’s cover of “Night Life” has a similar introspective feel. Nelson is among the many artists to defy the adage that “there are no second acts in American life.” His stint as a hit-maker for Nashville gave way to an “outlaw” movement more than a decade later, when Nelson and other artists challenged the country music establishment, often from the friendly confines of Austin, Texas, a place better known for cosmic cowboys than the Grand Ole Opry. By the 1980s, Nelson was crossing over be-
tween country and pop, appearing frequently on “The Tonight Show” with Johnny Carson. Over the course of his career, Nelson the songwriter has never been shy about interpreting the works of others, recording everything from “Blue Skies” by Irving Berlin to Leon Russell’s “A Song For You” and Hal David and Albert Hammond’s “To All the Girls I’ve Loved Before.” Perhaps that’s why this songwriter’s songwriter is way overdue for the Gershwin Prize. You just might say it’s high time. • Fox devotes its Fridays to kitchen duty. In addition to “MasterChef: Junior” (8 p.m.,
