Willie Nelson's 2001 album Rainbow Connection and his acclaimed 2004 album It Always Will Be will be released on vinyl on November 10.
Both records will be available on 180-gram black vinyl as well as a special limited edition color variant, UMe said in a press release. Rainbow Connection comes on 140-gram translucent orange vinyl and It Always Will Be on translucent ruby vinyl.
The vinyl series, in celebration of Nelson's 90th birthday, kicked off on June 23 with his 2002 collaborative album, The Great Divide. It was followed by Teatro and Milk Cow Blues.
1996's stripped-back and emotionally raw Spirit will be released on vinyl on October 20.
