Willie Nile released his self-titled debut in 1980. A singer-songwriter with a rock’n’roll heart, he became the toast of NYC. After weathering more than a little record company drama and leaving the business for a decade, Nile returned. His new album, The Great Yellow Light, is a 10-track collection that includes anthemic rockers, passionate ballads and even an Irish singalong. It ranks with his debut, his 2006 masterpiece Streets Of New York and 2013’s American Ride as one of his best records.
