Post Description

Billy Joe Shaver is one rough 'n' rowdy Texan who's experienced more than enough joy and pain in his 70 years to ever have to go begging for material. Like Hank Williams, Woody Guthrie, and Jimmie Rodgers, Billy Joe has lived the songs he sings when it's about love, he's embraced it; when it's about grief, he's writhed in it; and when it's about screwing-up, well, Lord knows he's done it. When Shaver kicks his to-the-bone tales back our way, they smack of irrefutable truth a truth that's delivered with simple, poetic grace. The song catalog of Billy Joe Shaver is impressive not for its size, but for its quality. Few country songwriters have as high a percentage of true gems as he has. Some of the greatest names in Country-music history have recorded Billy Joe Shaver songs, including Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, Waylon Jennings, Elvis Presley, Tom T. Hall, Tex Ritter, George Jones and Tennessee Ernie Ford. Only Luckenbach, Texas could supply a fitting backdrop for this raw, historic performance. Run Time 60 min.

Song Selection 

Georgia on a fast train
Honky tonk heroes
Thats what she said last night
The devil made me do it the first time
You asked me to
Im just an old chunk of coal
When the fallen angels fly
Live forever
Hottest thing in town
Follow me down
Love so sweet
You cant beat Jesus Christ
