As a recovering addict thats somehow survived all this when I shouldn't have, when I deserve to be a the bottom of a prison cell starving and getting beat like a rat, when I should have been burning in hell for the things I've done that still keeps me up at nights, wondering, I still wonder how people like Eddie here, that just seemed to have it all and would never ever had to go "there" at all, did and didn't make it back. My heart hurts a lot these days 💔 I don't have answers like people think an old grey man thats made it and didn't deserve to should or would have. Maybe? Nah il just go on.
No disrespect to Pete Anderson, but he ain't even a blemish on Eddy's guitar. He's playing to the best of his ability, like many others, the licks he's heard. Eddy was unbelievable. And may have been had he hung around, the very best for just all out head cuttin'.
There's a road runs clear to the sky Calls to my spirit calls to my heart She's been a harbor a port in a storm She's got one more sundown and one more dawn Fiddles don't make violins Motel rooms don't make homes You can't turn water into wine You can't make a rocks from a rolling stone I'd be a liar if I said I'd changed There's a river of freedom running through your veins But she'll be there in your heart and your mind Till the last song fades and the music dies
God bless you for posting. I was able to see Eddy & his father the Oct before he passed. I think about the last time seeing him at that small bar on the ala, fla line. Dope takes so many, but for some of us it's a way to kill the pain. That night I was flying high, watching Eddy on that fender. Months later I picked up a paper and there it was the death of Eddy left to die in some lonely hotel room. I'm trying to do better, turning to the good Lord for help, May God rest your soul Eddy Shaver
Dear Rocco, I pray you are well and received the help you wanted from the good Lord. Life can be difficult but, I believe, impossible (for me, anyway) without the help from our Father.
rocco ~ i too hope u are doing well today. trust in the LORD & HE will walk with u .. not a fable, not vain hope .. HE does & will. u are brave to change .. if i may, i will pray .. for u 🙏🏼🙏🏼
My dad and his dad were in the same class at LaVega H.S. My dad played out as well as Billy Joe.I followed in my dad’s footsteps and am still playing out. Eddy followed his dad too. Only got to meet Eddy 1 time at Tommy’s in HOT music in Waco. Tommy introduced us. Wish I’d gotten to know Eddy more. He & I had a lot in common. I’d have liked to ask him about playing for Dwight. Maybe I can one day. Another awesome musician taken by the “Business” and all that revolves around it.
@@Truesettingsun i had a call 3weeks ago that they found my only son dead, but, revived him after narcon cans or something I dont know i was dying inside. Found out he got a Roxy from work and it was that fhyenall or carfenyenall hell I dont know anyone I got out before this new wave of despair and destruction hit the streets.. God oh mighty wtf are we gonna do?
Definitely a True Artist He’s missed by so many I can’t imagine the pain they all feel And this video shows how much times have changed The Malboro cigarette pack has a social security number laying beside it??? I think Rip Eddy
I love Billy Joe as a writer and performer, and Eddy is just about as good as it gets (when he's not this high) but when your dad is using, and you spend every day and night on the road with him, there is only one way that a boy is going to go. And I'll just wait for the shit storm to start falling, but his dad fell way short on this one. Step one is to remove the user from the environment (danger zone) Billy Joe knew that Eddy was using, but I assume that as he did nothing about it, his career was more important to him. RIP Eddy
*As his father Billy Joe use to say to him, **_" Ahhh, throw down on it Eddy ! "_*
*Rest In Peace, Guitar Man ------*
So sad to lose Eddy at such a young age. A true 'Strat' slinger with monster tone and chops. RIP Eddy Shaver.
Best damn country rock guitarist of all time, Fast Train, Little Sister...
Look it UP

Feel sorry for your sad self a lot? Why not let the shit go and live right while you still can...
Jesus.
No one else could hold a candle to Eddy when he was playing for his dad. He was a rolling stone.
100% agreed!
I think he was and wouldve been the best on guitar
So do ever wonder if Pete Anderson copied his licks , or did Eddie influence Dwight's album really as Pete just played Eddie licks

My father... Eric Butler played with Billy Joe and Eddie.
A shame.. what Talent, and showmanship this guy had.. Wonder what he could be today If he had not left so young RIP EDDY we love you
There's a road runs clear to the sky
Calls to my spirit calls to my heart
She's been a harbor a port in a storm
She's got one more sundown and one more dawn
Fiddles don't make violins
Motel rooms don't make homes
You can't turn water into wine
You can't make a rocks from a rolling stone
I'd be a liar if I said I'd changed
There's a river of freedom running through your veins
But she'll be there in your heart and your mind
Till the last song fades and the music dies
Eddie was among the best ever.

@@englishshab3557 Still alive and doing well, thank you. I trust God.
So humble... He thanks the audience and humbly says it's a sound check song.... RIP
Eddy and Billy Joe reunited in heaven.
Who goes to hell?
JESUS said the majority do and that Only few take the narrow road of surrender to HIM and get HIS Grace to die to self.
Many people don’t know that Eddy was an excellent songwriter, as well as being an astonishing guitarist.
My dad and his dad were in the same class at LaVega H.S.
My dad played out as well as Billy Joe.I followed in my dad’s footsteps and am still playing out.
Eddy followed his dad too.

He & I had a lot in common.
I’d have liked to ask him about playing for Dwight.

He was as good as they come, rest easy eddie
What incredibly beautiful songs Eddy wrote. Have you heard “Come On Down”?
RIP my good man!
Miss your music buddy!
I had a chance to meet him once and talk to him briefly. A very talented and humble young man. RIP. Respect.
I love this play by Eddy. I love his pops Billy Joe and seems he never got over losing this talented young son.
would you?
you have a point

Guitar from Willie's safe after the auction.
Thanks.

it ain't easy
Eddy Eddy Eddy.... Eddy... Eddy.... (pause)
thanx
Nice.
I love Billy Joe as a writer and performer, and Eddy is just about as good as it gets (when he's not this high) but when your dad is using, and you spend every day and night on the road with him, there is only one way that a boy is going to go. And I'll just wait for the shit storm to start falling, but his dad fell way short on this one. Step one is to remove the user from the environment (danger zone)
Billy Joe knew that Eddy was using, but I assume that as he did nothing about it, his career was more important to him. RIP Eddy
In the suicide cult they call my family my older and younger sibling died at 44 and 48; they both thought I was the devil fir trying to warn them.
What?
No sense
