Spirit (Willie Nelson album)
1996 studio album by Willie Nelson
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Spirit is the 44th studio album by country music singer Willie Nelson. The album differs from Nelson's other albums because of the use of fewer instruments (two guitars, piano, fiddle) and has a more classical/Spanish influence than others. Nelson's sister Bobbie plays piano.
