About
As the writer of nearly every song on Waylon Jennings' 1973 breakthrough album <i>Honky Tonk Heroes</i>, Billy Joe Shaver was a key architect of Outlaw Country. Yet his great '70s and '80s solo albums didn't rack up many sales. Fortunately, his duo with his budding guitar-hero son Eddy under the name Shaver came along just in time for the alt.country movement, and Billy Joe finally began getting his due. The pair's first album, 1993's <i>Tramp on Your Street</i>, found Eddy contributing plenty of blistering licks to his father's deceptively simple tunes full of down-home poetry and hard-won wisdom. While "Georgia on a Fast Train" and "Old Chunk of Coal" are revved-up remakes of tunes from the elder Shaver's solo outings, the rest of the songs showed that the 54-year-old singer/songwriter still had plenty of power in his pen, from the drunkard's desperate plea for redemption "If I Give My Soul" to the randy roadhouse rocker "The Hottest Thing in Town."
