Billy Joe Shaver has never been a household name, but his songs became country standards during the ’70s and his reputation among musicians and critics has remained legendary throughout the ensuing decades.
Shaver is truly one of the most respected living figures in American music. His songs have been cut by Elvis Presley, Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and many others. Bob Dylan, who rarely covers other writers, often plays Billy Joe’s "Old Five And Dimers Like Me" in concert and Johnny Cash called him "my favorite songwriter." MORE HERE
