From Willie's Stardust and before period, I've only got Phases and Stages and Red Headed Stranger (as well as Stardust of course). All of following, I give a B plus, although I think I like To Lefty from Willie best of them all, and might even rate it an A minus, but for the songs being overly familiar even to a non-country adept.
Yesterday's Wine
Shotgun Willie
To Lefty from Willie
After this, I've only happened to collect those Willie solo albums that Christgau has rated a full A, plus his collabs with Webb Pierce and Hank Snow. On collabs, I de-shelved his collaboration with Asleep at the Wheel, Willie and the Wheel, and his collaboration with his sister Bobbie, December Day.
