Willie Nelson is celebrating his 90th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed guitarists of his generation.

Popular guitarist-singer Willie Nelson (To All the Girls I've Loved Before, Pancho and Lefty, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 90th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Nelson, a cultural icon

Born Willie Hugh Nelson in Abbott on April 30, 1933, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Nelson's not just a great guitarist, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Willie hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Willie Nelson as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 90.

Happy Birthday, Willie, you're the best!
