A legendary live performance by a masterful toubadour. This is a rare acoustic version of Joe Ely's Carnival Bum performed at the Harry Ransom Center in Austin, Texas during his one man theater show entitled Bonfire of Roadmaps.

  • I've never heard this song before, gave me goose bumps. Been a fan since the early 80s.  Going to see him in Calgary next month.

  • great tune...and yep Matt you're right JOE IS THE MAN!!!!

  • Joe is the Man!!!!

  • Been watching Joe since 1978 - Soap Creek Saloon. Seen him 50 times here at Gruene hall. Don't remeber this song. I don't remember alot of things. Good song.

  • This is great...but does anyone know of a clip of Joe's 2 greatest ( to me anyway) songs...Honkeytonk Masquerade & She never spoke Spanish to me....They were on You Tube a while ago ..but I can't find 'em!

  • No DVD I know of. Its on the CD Streets of Sin, available online.

  • Beautiful. Thank you.

  • Thanks so much for sharing!!!

  • Is this on a DVD? Anyone know the name if it is please?

  • Thanks for the upload. And God bless Joe Ely! I've been a fan since '81, and I can't begin to describe the joy that his music has given me.
