Product Information

Willie Nelson says "Billy Joe Shaver may be the best songwriter alive today," and legions of fans agree that Billy Joe is the real deal. Many describe his songs as pure poetry. Shaver sings about a life that's been full of hard times, wild living, and a forty-year-long passion for his late wife Brenda. His songs are raw, honest, and so true that people hear the story of their own lives in his music. No wonder, then, that his songs have also been recorded by artists such as Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, George Jones, Bob Dylan, Elvis Presley, Patty Loveless, John Anderson, Tom T. Hall, the Allman Brothers, the Oak Ridge Boys, and Tex Ritter. In this compelling autobiography written with the assistance of Brad Reagan, Billy Joe Shaver looks back over a life that some might call a miracle of survival. His father abandoned the family before Billy Joe was born. Troubles in school and in the military turned him into a fighter, and a sawmill accident claimed two fingers and part of a third on his right hand. Yet his innate musical talent and the encouragement of an English teacher set him on the road to being a songwriter--and he never looked back. Shaver recounts his long struggle to break into the music business in Nashville and the success that came when Waylon Jennings recorded his songs on the 1973 album Honky Tonk Heroes, which became a landmark of outlaw country music. Shaver movingly describes his own thirty-year, up-and-down career as a singer-songwriter in Nashville and Texas, his bouts with alcohol and drugs, his pleasure in touring with his son Eddy and their band Shaver during the 1990s, and the pain of losing Eddy, Brenda, and Billy Joe's mother all within the year 1999-2000. As full of life, heartbreak, and drama as any of Billy Joe Shaver's songs, Honky Tonk Hero is the story of a man who not only walked on the wild side and lived to tell about it, but also got it all down in songs that many people consider to be some of the finest country music ever written.

Avis les plus pertinents

  • Great biography and lyrics to some of the best songs ever written!

    The only complaint about this great bio is that it's not long enough! Billy Joe puts words together like no other Texas song writer ever has or ever will. He's got more life stories than could be put into 100 of these books so this is just a little sample. The book is worth the price paid just for the pages of song lyrics in the back half of the book. Being a Texan, I've never had trouble understanding his words but I've heard and read them misquoted sometimes laughably. The words are all double checked and correct. Even if you've never heard the song, they're great! Like I said, it's just not long enough. ("That's what she said last night!")

  • 9onky tonk hero

    A very interesting read. But over half of the book is lyrics to every song BJ wrote. Didnt need or want those. Remove those..and its basically a longer short story. Should be in paperback only to keep the price down. But like I said, interesting.
