Willie Nelson, Phases and Stages, 1974 on Atlantic

This was Nelson’s 17th studio album and second (and last) of the Atlantic era, following Shotgun Willie, produced by Jerry Wexler and recorded at Muscle Shoals in Alabama.

As the listening notes explain, while Nelson disclaimed the autobiographical elements of the record, “when you make . . . the most devastating divorce record of all time – and have been beaten by an ex-wife after she’s sewn you into your sheets – people begin to believe the album is about you and your ex-wives.”

My copy is the 2024 Vinyl Me, Please Essentials edition (E135) on “bloody mary marble” with listening notes by Andrew Winistorfer (who also wrote for the Anthology collection The Story of Willie Nelson) with additional artwork by Mike MItchell.

Big Joe Turner, Rhythm & Blues Years, 1986 on Atlantic

Although this compilation was put out by Atlantic in 1986 (Turner died in late 1985), the recordings come from the 1950s. Turner met the Erteguns at the Apollo Theater in 1951 and made five albums plus many singles and EPs on Atlantic during those years.

Great 2xLP with a gatefold and liner notes including contributions by Ahmet and Nesuhi Ertegun, Bob Porter, Jerry Wexler, Doc Pomus, and Herb Abramson. As the liner notes point out “these are not Joe’s biggest recordings, but they are some of his best performances” – they reissued the biggest hits on another compilation.
