  • Billy Joe Shaver performs "Georgia on a Fast Train" live at the Farm Aid concert in New Orleans, Louisiana on September 18, 1994. Farm Aid was started by Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp in 1985 to keep family farmers on the land and has worked since then to make sure everyone has access to good food from family farmers. Dave Matthews joined Farm Aid's board of directors in 2001.

    Farm Aid's performances are donated by the artists in order to raise funds and raise awareness for family farmers. They've raised their voices to help - what can you do?

    One of the most under rated Country Musicians of all times, he had that outlaw sound.

      Absolutely. He's definitely at the top of the list as far as under rated country artist, with Townes or Jerry Reed a close second in my opinion. It's amazing how much incredible talent came out of only a few decades.

    He was such a wonderful performer. You can show me a million musicians that are more “technically proficient” but not one of them will be as expressive or have as much personality on stage as this man. Any live footage you see of him you can tell he’s doing what he loves.There will never be a songwriter of equal talent. His contribution to music is undeniable and I know that he will continue to be appreciated and be a source of inspiration for years to come. God bless you Billy Joe Shaver and may you Rest In Peace. You’re going to live forever now just as you said you would.

    Eddie could play like a man possessed. He could bend 'em as well as Duane Eddy. He could play intricate, fast or slow. Eddie had something I'll call "feel" because he could feel what was needed and go there. I can't imagine Billy's loss when Eddie passed. He is now with him, but thankfully we have great musical memories of songs, videos, and certain times in our lives connected through what Billy Joe gave us.
