Summary
Legendary harmonica player Mickey Raphael joins me for a deep dive into life on the road with Willie Nelson — including an unbelievable story about the night Willie’s crew ended up getting a ride to a show from the Hells Angels. Mickey also talks about working with iconic songwriters like Guy Clark and Townes Van Zandt, his memories from decades of touring, his solo projects, and the exciting new music he’s working on now. This episode is a front-row seat to country music history from a man who lived it, breathed it, and shaped it beside one of the greatest of all time.mickey raphael, willie nelson, hells angels, hells angels story, mickey raphael interview, willie nelson band, guy clark, townes van zandt, outlaw country stories, country music podcast, drifting cowboy podcast, harmonica player, willie nelson road stories, country music legends, country music history, nashville podcast, dillon weldon, country music interview, willie nelson stories, mickey raphael harmonica, country road stories
