The Songwriting Legacy of Billy Joe Shaver
Steve Earle
"...here comes Billy Joe Shaver,
and Waylon makes that one record that defines outlaw country if there is such a thing. When Waylon decided, “No, I’m going to produce my own record,” it happens to be a record of Billy Joe Shaver songs. Billy Joe made sure those songs got heard. He was determined that something was going to be and tried to will it into existence. Honky Tonk Heroes was a
masterpiece."
