Product Details

Billy Joe Shaver spent decades as the outlaw country songwriter's songwriter, penning classics that Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, and Kris Kristofferson all leaned on before he finally had a band worthy of his pen in his own son Eddy, a guitarist whose raw, unhinged playing matched his father's sermons perfectly. Together they made some of the most spiritually honest music to come out of Texas.

Shaver was a band that featured both Billy Joe Shaver and his son, Eddy. As the NY Times once wrote, "Shaver makes music to burn down the honky-tonks." They also did a number of utterly gut-wrenching ballads. The band made five studio albums between 1993 and 2000 when, tragically, Eddy passed away. These 17 tracks are culled from those records.
