Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Spiritual songs have long been a strength of Billy Joe Shaver, the Texas songwriter championed by such stalwarts as Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, and Kris Kristofferson. Here, Shaver and producer John Carter Cash (son of Johnny and June) balance songs of sin and salvation with those of love and loss, as a reflection of how the deaths of his beloved mother, wife, and son have reinforced his religions faith. Guest vocals from John Anderson, Marty Stuart, Tanya Tucker, Kristofferson, and Cash (in a 1970 duet) enhance rather than compete with Shaver's rough-hewn vocals, while the American Indian instrumentation of Bill Miller on the title track deepens the spiritual resonance. For all of the stately reverence of "When I Get My Wings," Shaver displays his more rollicking, raucous side as well, particularly on "If You Don't Love Jesus" ("go to hell"). --Don McLeese


Product Description

Throughout 40-year career, Shaver has released 15 albums. Five-time Grammy award nominee. Songwriter Lifetime Achievement Award from the Americana Music Assoc. Member of Nashville Songwriter’s Hall of Fame. Songs have been recorded by Elvis, Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Tom Petty, among others. Producer John Carter Cash is the son of Johnny Cash and June Carter. Shaver wrote for Johnny Cash’s publishing company in the late 1970s. The album features the Cash/Shaver duet You Can’t Beat Jesus Christ recorded during those years. Other guests include country music starts Kris Kristofferson, Tanya Tucker, John Anderson, Marty Stuart, Randy Scruggs, and Native American singer/songwriter Bill Miller. This is Billy Joe’s first new studio album in two years. Shaver has suffered extraordinary loss during his life: he was abandoned at birth by his mother, raised by grandmother, quit school in 8th grade, lost three fingers at 21 in saw mill accident, joined Navy, married five times to two different women, his mother, wife, and son all died within a year and a half. Regardless, he maintains a positive outlook thanks to his faith.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of Billy Joe's best, October 29, 2007
By GLD2CUGO "fftwd" (Raleigh, NC) - See all my reviews
I've been a fan of Billy Joe for many years and I have every CD he has released. I have listened to this album many times since I purchased it and I have to say that this is definately one of his best; not to far behind his very best, Tramp on Your Street. Billy Joe is one of the best and most consistant songwriters today. If you are a fan don't hesitate to buy this. If you are new to Billy Joe this is as good a place to start as any.

5.0 out of 5 stars Honky Tonk Hero shows his Spiritual Side, November 21, 2007
It's hard not to be a long time country music fan without hearing a Billy Joe Shaver song. In the 70's Waylon Jennings did a whole album of Shaver's music. And, since then, nearly everybody has covered at least one of his songs - Rockers, Country, Blues, Folk; they have all done one or two.
Shaver has always unleashed his emotions in his music. And a whole lot of his songs have covered the ups and downs of a rambling honky-tonk lifestyle. Yet throughout all of his music there were numerous references to his Christian roots and his long term spiritual values.
This album uncovers the veneer and pushes his values to front and center. There may be some who are turned off by the overtly fundamentalist Christian messages. The music speaks for itself. But, if you are a Christian (I am)and you too have walked down some tonky-tonk paths (I have), you are going to love every track on this work.
