Billy Joe Shaver passes away, RIP to one of the greatest songwriters ever

[Father Torque]

Saw BIlly Joe sometime around 93 or 94 in some bar off Euclid, Eddie was still alive then. Artists from Waylon to Elvis recorded his songs. Hell, Waylon's breakout album "Honky Tonk Heros" featured 10 out of the 11 songs written by Billy Joe. Just a phenomenal talent. RIP brother.

2020 sucks a**

So long, ole buddy. See you on the other side.

John Prine, Justin Townes Earle, Jerry Jeff Walker, and now Billy Joe Shaver. 2020 has been hell on the outlaw country/americana genre.

Hard to survive that leap from the Tallahatchee Bridge. Someone should write a song about it.

(Describing when he shot Billy Coker)

"I hit him between the mother and the f***er. right in the mouth, it was a lucky shot."

Still the greatest quote in history.

Still the greatest quote in history.

He also told the press after the trial “Hopefully things will work out where we become friends enough so that he gives me back my bullet.”

I love the part where witnesses state that before Shaver shot him he asked Coker, "Where do you want it?" That's a baller move there.

Did anyone else notice that John Schlarman was the guy who pancaked the last UT defender that shook BJH loose on the TD run by BJH?

That's crazy just the other night I watched some of his videos on youtube. First time I've watched them for
7 or 8 years.
