Billy Joe Shaver - Sweet Mama (Live at Farm Aid 1986)

[@gradybird3336]

I'm old, I've heard and seen a lot of guitar players. Eddie was a natural-born genius. Like all the best, it flowed from him. He made his artistry look easy, like the very best do. May he and his dad rest easy.

[@charlesking5328]

Their music and live's , would make a great movie in my opinion. Share it with the world !

[@stringbender57]

@@charlesking5328 I agree with you both 100%!

[@stringbender57]

I absolutely love Billie Joe and Eddy Shavers talent and music. Billy Joe was an amazing song writer, and Eddie could throw down with that Strat. These two are sorely missed!

[@walksthesehills]

Billy Joe and Eddy, two of the very best.

[@torgnyfornstedt1804]

Nice and interesting with such an early BJS band. Eddy only 24 - 25 years old. Still so skillful. Great clip many thanks!

[@karenolson1584]

Billy Jo, Brenda and Eddy back reunited in heaven

Eddy Shaver on the Guitar!!

[@vmat1000]

[@mikebordeaux8218]

Goddamn that boy can play.

[@MultiMoveman]

Yo dude slappin bass in country, that's awesome

[@billywalker8375]

Farm aid was at MANOR DOWNS, A Horse race track outside of Austin Tx in Manor Texas. MANOR DOWNS held Farm aid twice as well as many other concerts Over the years. It was a great venue for concerts. The Movie Roadie was filmed at Manor Downs as well. The owner of Manor Downs also manages the great Stevie Ray Vaughan.

[@jamesonhook1405]

i like how he just holds the guitar at his side when he is not playing .

[@KStewart-th4sk]

You do know Billy is missing parts of his fingers on his right hand? I don't think trying to play guitar is the most important thing on his mind when he had his son playing lead guitar. RIP EDDY.

[@rockylane8221]

Eddy smokin that slide

[@clarknash7357]

Good stuff!

[@WindEnergy]

Eddy was a monster. Eric Clapton couldn’t tie Eddy’s shoes.

[@IRONMIKE772]

AGREED!!!

[@staxmantim]

Cause he was wearing boots?

[@BDaddySlimBDS-hx2ku]

Classic!

[@thedevilinthecircuit1414]

Billy don't need no damn guitar strap. He controls gravity as he sees fit.

[@aknuthatch]

Word I heard was that Strat belonged to Duane Allman - And it was given to Eddie by Dickey Betts

[@randallkennedy2066]

as good as anybody

[@WGHarleydavidson]

Eddy was the *%*$&!!!!

[@SonnySigala]

Texas country and western music is a whole lot better than the mainstream country and western music by far!!!! And I don't live in Texas.

[@Rocco9457]

Great to see another video of Billy Joe and Eddy. I sure do miss Eddy, got to meet him and his father one time, but I will never forget his playing and billy joe words. Is that the fender d. betts gave him?

[@mrtonebone]

It is! Eddie at 24 yrs old too! Amazing....STILL.

[@kevingee4294]

Dude Man I've been a fan of Billy Joe since the '70s can you tell me about Eddy and the fender from D.Betts?

[@WGHarleydavidson]

@@kevingee4294 The strat was given to him by DB,,,Billy J has it in safe

[@perpetualmotion357]

Eddie a true six string gun slinger.

[@arlingtonhynes]

Sometimes it’s startling how much Shaver looked like Jeremy Clarkson.

[@miurasvlamborghini]

Are you drunk bro?

[@RoadrocketEst57]

Look at all the shade was hot that day

[@stephenkirby5141]

Eddy was as good as Duane Allman.

[@daz6704]

Better

[@stephenkirby5141]

You are correct. Glad other people think so also.

[@My1957Stratocaster]

Never thought i would agree with you. Yes he was.

[@WindEnergy]

There are “hot” pickers like SRV, Clapton, Jeff Beck - but Eddy was on another planet, like Hendrix.

[@charlesking5328]

He was incredible , no doubt about it. Two music legends 🙏

[@andymelendez9757]

A Fender P bass would have been just fine. He probably knows that now

[@antoniomanaserian3838]

Goddamn that boy can play.
