His \nappearance in Ace’s Songwriter Series this month is both long overdue \nand most welcome.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYears before he had any hits of his own, \nWillie forged his reputation as a front tier writer, thanks to songs \nlike ‘Crazy’, Night Life’, ‘Hello Walls’ and ‘Funny How Time Slips \nAway’. Others made these songs hits initially, but it was Nelson’s skill\n as a lyricist and composer that truly ‘made’ the songs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten \nover a period of more than 30 years, you can hear all of those and 20 \nothers on “One In A Row” which demonstrate the breadth and depth of his \ncatalogue and shows why so many of his biggest copyrights continue to be\n revived and revisited decades after Nelson first put pen to paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome\n of these have been covered literally hundreds of times in all genres of\n music, others just once or twice. But all of them reinforce the fact \nthat Willie Hugh Nelson is one of the most important songwriters of the \n20th Century inside or outside of country music – and would have been \none even if he had never sung a note.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA most valuable addition to \nAce’s unofficial ‘series within a series’ featuring the songs of \nNelson’s country peers Dolly Parton and Merle Haggard, and a solid \ntestament to the talents of a man who is still singing many of them and \nothers live in concert at the age of 91.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e['01 Hello Walls - Little Esther\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t', '02 Angel Flying Too Close To The Ground - Bob Dylan\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t', '03 Night Life - B.B.
