CHICAGO Country music legend Willie Nelson will once again spoof his own tax troubles in a television spot for H&R Block to run during the Super Bowl.

The spot from Minneapolis agency Campbell Mithun depicts Nelson hawking a “Willie Nelson Advice Doll” that answers investment and tax questions, such as whether a bass boat is a better investment than a 401(k) plan. The spot is intended to highlight the Kansas City, Mo., company’s ability to dispense sound tax and investment advice.
