Well said, MrRacer - & probably in all Country music today. He's got 10 gigs in the 1st 10 days of December 2011 in almost as many states & at every one he'll be the Real Deal! What a 72 year-old
MrAsaph1960...Would that friend have been Teddie488? I fully agree with you on BJS...Love his music so much...Thank you for sharing BJS's true to life songs, born out of all the hardships life offered him...They don't sing/write 'em like that, from the heart any more...
@MrAsaph1960 Billy truly is a great visionary poet! His greatness is more recognized across the water than here, Americans tend to undervalue the intrinsically American. I love literature written in the vernacular, Heathcliff's Yorkshire & Huck Finn's Missouri drawl, etc. Billy's truth is as pure & straight as Twain's & he's as elegant as Coleridge & as funny as the finest Irish limericks! Those who recognize TRUE ART have loved him forever & the other greats always have too! God bless BJS!!!
See with music like this i can't see why people can hate america...Even though we got crap like rap an hip hop the real americans like this is what makes america, well AMERICA!
I'm not from TX but I'd bet my sweet petuti that Billy Joe Shaver is the REAL DEAL. One of my favorite BJS songs and I really like the REAL DEAL cd. Thanks for the post.
