TWISTED WILLIE tips its hat to the Red-Headed Stranger by bringing out a diverse roster of country and rock's best in order to show his influences on both genres. | | The appearence of Nelson's country contemporaries, Waylon Jennings and Johnny Cash, seems obvious, considering the long-standing respect afforded him in the C&W community. More surprising is the musical back-up from such flannel-wearing luminaries as Nirvana's Krist Novoselic and Soundgarden's Kim Thayil, or the participation of former Dead Kennedys singer Jello Biafra. These unexpected twists more ably showcase Nelson's songwriting diversity and grit, and make TWISTED WILLIE a thoroughly worthwhile tribute album. |

| | Professional Reviews | | Entertainment Weekly (2/2/96, p.59)
- "...inspired reworkings from the likes of X, Best Kissers In The World, and Jello Biafra, elevate this well above the usual tribute-album fare." - Rating: A-Melody Maker (4/13/96, p.38)
- "What do you want out of a tribute LP? Mark Lanegan or Jerry Cantrell being respectful to the subject? Or do you prefer Jello Biafra being Jello Biafra?....Whatever your criteria, there's something here of interest." |
