Scoring at least one major hit every year between 1974 and 1991, he has had an impressive fifty-six chart records, which led to his induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2010. Among his best known numbers are I Wouldn't Want to Live If You Didn't Love Me, You're My Best Friend and I Believe in You. He's been on a comeback of sort in recent years after a period of semi-retirement between 2006 until 2010, returning to the limelight with 2012's And So It Goes and 2014's album Reflections. They were a couple of records that proved once again that William's is a master interpreter, taking tracks from Townes Van Zandt, Merle Haggard and Guy Clark and imbuing them with his own unique laconic charm.
