Amazon.com
Hag's first live record of the 1990s finds him, at age 62, in strong form as he skims the cream from his own remarkable songbook. His voice may not have the sheer force of his younger years, but his singing is full of attractive nuances and passionate depth. His finely tuned band is another asset here, most notably Telecaster magician Redd Volkaert, who has digested all of Roy Nichols's classic licks and has incorporated them into his own risk-taking style. Longtime Stranger steel player Norm Hamlet, fiddle legend Johnny Gimble, and Hag's "best boy," ex-wife, and harmony singer Bonnie Owens all make vital contributions. Haggard also pays homage to his three main idols with covers of Bob Wills's "Ida Red" and Lefty Frizzell's "That's the Way Love Goes" plus his own brand-new addition to Jimmie Rodgers's "Blue Yodel" series called "Motorcycle Cowboy/Blue Yodel #13." --Marc Greilsamer

Good album. Got it for 1 song and liked most of the album.
Cross just being Cross.......2005-04-11
If you like any sort of Texas Country, this is the album/band for you. Cross is one of the best bands to see live and have amazing energy and lyrics you can't help but love! This album captures just how amazing a live show from Cody and the boys truely is. All the other reviews are true with each song, but the one song they all miss is "Crazy Eddie's Last Hurrah". This song is AWESOME! It starts with Cody sayin' ,"this is a song about killin' a woman because she pisses you off!" Its a great song to dedicate to any woman who has done you wrong! Gotta give 'The Boys From Oklahoma' props on more great work!
Cross Canadian Ragweed.......2004-11-09
A friend from Texas introduced me to this band... Fell in love with them!!!!! Alabama was the first song I heard and loved it!!! Its the best IMO!!!!!! Cant go wrong with this band!!! Wish you had more stars to give to this band.
100 Stars!.......2004-07-23
ALL cd's by Cross Canadian Ragweed are Excellent and worth more than 5 stars!.. If you are unfamiliar, I would suggest and reccomend getting all of them a listen!

Back When Pat Was Still Good.......2005-09-16
I haven't seen Pat in concert since his "Three Days" album, but he use to put on a great show. This was recorded druing that time and it comes across on the record. Orginal, energetic, and flat out good, this album will be appreciated by any Texas Country Music fan or fan of Pat.
BEST BILLY BOB'S EVER.......2004-06-16
Live at Billy Bob's is the "essential" Pat Green cd, so if you've never heard him, get this or "Here We Go (Live)" first. Both live albums are awesome, but Billy Bob's has better sound to it. I give this and Here We Go both 5 Stars, so either is a fine choice. GO PAT.
Darn Good Texas Country Music.......2003-05-12
Pat Green has revitalized interest in Texas country singers. This is a great album and doesn't sound "Nashville" ('cause it was recorded at Billy Bob's!). Pat Green's songs are written about all the good things in life: partying, girls, and Texas. A great album for anyone trying to escape the country music fallbacks of wining, crying, dog-left-me, wife-left-me, ain't-my-truck-great style of music.
Great Listening!.......2002-09-08
A long-time Pat Green fan, this album ranks right up there. His live performance of Southbound 35 is awesome, as well as the track Nightmare.
Everytime I play this album I wish I were at Billy Bob's in Ft. Worth drinking a Shiner Boch! You won't be disappointed.
incredible disc.......2000-03-24
Pat Green may be the best songwriter I've heard since John Prine and Garcia/Hunter. There is not one track you'll skip...this is the best CD I've bought in a long, long time.

Great Music.......2006-03-19
Prior to moving to America, I had heard nothing of the Refreshments of latterly Roger Clyne. I even watched King of the Hill unaware of where the theme music originated....then one day whilst searching for the Gin Blossoms I came across both the Refreshments and Roger Clyne .... This cd combines the best of Roger's whole career...the pick of his days in the Refreshments plus the best of his solo career. Counterclockwise and Banditos standout head and shoulders above anything else but the rest of the time the cd just rolls on through foot tapping song after foot tapping song . For me track 8 ...Mexico steals the show.
Highly recommended
Better Live........2005-10-08
Hear the Peacemakers live. They are are better in person than any of their albums. This comes close and is very enjoyable to use to remember show time.
Billy Bob's.......2005-09-04
First off I must tell you that this is one of my favorite groups. The CD is a great mix of Refreshment/Peacemaker tunes but the usually dead-on vocals come off a bit sharp quite often and don't blend as well with the music. Solid otherwise. GO SEE THEIR SHOW!!!!
Buy this CD.......2005-08-13
This band has no equal. Period. No band puts more effort into the creation of great songs. No band puts more energy into their live shows. Buy this - you'll wonder how music this good has escaped your ears for this long. You'll tell your friends about the band. Then you'll see them live. THAT'S when you'll realize what you've been missing.
The greatest live band makes a live album.......2005-07-22
If you have never seen Roger Clyne in concert, you really should seek him out. The guy performs like nobody else. You are getting at least two hours of music, stories and just one heck of a time. I recently saw him perform in concert in support of this album. I figured that the show would probably be him playing the same setlist on this album, wrong! Roger played request after request. The guy is about giving to the fans. This fantastic album is able to give people a taste of what one of his special concerts are like. Surrounded by great musicians and the most loyal fans in the world, Roger and the boys deliver! This album includes a lot of his Peacemaker stuff, but also a lot of his Refreshment's material. These guys rule, period!

I'm a big fan of Larry Gatlin and the Gatlin Brothers. This CD recorded live at Billy Bob's shows just why they were one of the great groups of the 80'sin Country music. They can sing, entertain and draw you in with their stories in song.
Any fan of country music owes it to themselves to purchase this CD and experience a Live concert with the Gatlins. We own both the CD and the DVD and we play them often and loud.

a real winner!.......2004-06-07
i can't believe how great this cd is! i'm not usually a fan of live recordings, but this cd is incredible! it's filled with all the power and passion that has made david an outlaw legend. the man still has it. get this cd now!
great CD.......2004-02-07
David Allan Coe delivers another fantastic album!
DAC's maintained his edge over the years and this is a raw Outlaw Country/Southern Rock/Blues/Bluegrass/Rap record that's a joy to listen to again and again.
LONG LIVE DAC!
great show.......2004-01-20
The main reason this one doesn't get as much attention as it should is that most fans liked the DVD version better, which makes sense, but if you are looking for a great CD of a DAC show this is it. This is great for listening to in my truck and believe me I've listened to it a lot. David does it all including rap, but he does not talk through every song like one person on here stated. DAC has done spoken word albums and even Hank Williams did spoken word so what's wrong with that? Truth be told, there is nothing dissapointing about this CD to me and all DAC fans should get this and play it for a friend. If you are not a fan you should give it a try. I think the new songs on here are very good. Somebody on here said they wouldn't be hits, but that's a given considering the current sad state of Country radio. Thank God we have DAC to entertain common folks with music that speaks volumes and touches the heart and lifts the spirit.
real outlaw music.......2004-01-17
This is what Outlaw music is all about. Coe could have cleaned and polished it, but then it'd lose it's edge. David get's better with age like Willie, Waylon, and Cash.
Too bad its been edited down.......2003-11-29
To correct one of the reviews, DAC talks and talks a lot, I was at Billy Bob's the night this album was recorded and was disappointed that songs where left off, which would really be my only complaint with this album.

Customer Reviews:
Emottion is Every song.......2005-02-26
Kevin Fowler
Live At Billy Bobs
The album is recorded live and by just hearing the first song, you know that it is going to be a good time. His voice sounds like he is having a great time when he starts "100% Texan". The album has his best songs from his first two records.
The first song, "100% Texan" just makes a Texan proud. He describes how it feels to be out in the country on a rainy summer night. The sound is the typical country and western twang. "Not Lovin' Anymore" is a sad song but its good to listen to after a breakup. He says, "I feel sorry for the next one in line" and that line helped me get over a hard breakup. Most of his songs are up beat and make you want to party, but "Not Lovin Anymore" is a slow sad song. The next song picks the pace back up. All the other songs are great for doing activities such as partying or when your at the lake or dancing. I usually listen to this CD when I'm plowing fields on my family farm or having a party.
Kevin Fowler sounds like Jason Boland and Cross Canadian Ragweed. They all have the same attitude towards country music. That the music s doesn't have to came from Nashville to be country. His newest record, "Loose Loud and Crazy" is a fairly good cd. Most of the songs are good.

This is a very cool disc. Roy plays in several different styles ( Jazz, Country, Bluegrass ) and has some fun with the band an audience. There's some great playing and some of his best hits. A lot of fun and a good first Roy Clark disc to pick up if you're looking for somewhere to start.

Awesome CD!.......2006-03-04
It's not too often that a Live CD captures the energy of a band, but then again, not too many bands have the kind of energy the Randy Rogers Band has. This is no studio CD. This is live. I've seen these guys live many times (unfortunately I did miss this recording), and this CD captures their energy. The music is something that's hard to describe. You just have to listen to it. Randy's voice is just amazing. Brady's fiddle playing is unbelievable. This is just one of those "must have" cds.

this is a 4 stars album........2005-01-18
i love gary stewart's music i cut my teeth on it. i have this cd, and his voice is great the plying is fair, but it wasnt as good as i hope'd it would be allthough its still a good cd. i wont give it 5 stars. but i believe it is a great 4 star album. ya know the sadest part of it, is that gary passed away not long after this record was made. not sure it was his last show. but i know it was his last at billy bob's. we miss you gary, a fan always. i got this album at billy bob's i go there often, but sadly missed his show.i wish i has seen it then and now for sure. knowing he is gone. k.d.s.
King of the Honky-Tonks.......2003-05-19
King of the Honky-Tonks, Gary Stewart has proved once again why he has "staying power". In a day and age of "pop" country music, Stewart still packs the house and fills the dance floor. I was there the night this album was recorded, and found I still love the songs I grew up listening to. The band on this album proves musical talent beyond belief, proving once again how Texas Honky
Tonk just can't be beat. I tip my hat to Glenn, Curtis, Dick, Steve, Tim and of course Gary for releasing such a great live recording.
GARY'S THE MAN!.......2003-04-24
I've been a stone Gary Stewart fan for life; the man is Soulful
like no other, and he sadly shows up what passes for today's air-brushed country music. It's great to have a LIVE recording of him
but somehow it falls just a little short: somehow I still prefer the studio cuts for maximum power and intensity, but it's still worth having for sure. Let me add my voice to the chorus: PLEASE
let the powers that be re-release his first couple of albums!
Meanwhile,we are all damn lucky that the Man is still playing those dates in Texas and recording for us.
THE KING OF HONKY TONK.......2003-04-02
TURN OFF YOUR COUNTRY RADIO , GIVE THIS LEGEND A LISTEN.THIS IS FOR DIEHARD STEWART FANS.IT'S NOT FOR SHEDAISY OR FAITH'S "CRY " FANS. THIS IS REAL LIFE HURTIN',CHEATIN',AND DRINKIN'SONGS. BEEN DIVORCED? LISTEN TO GARY AND HE'LL GET YOU THROUGH IT.YOU CAN FEEL THE MUSIC .ANY GARY STEWART BEATS 75% OF WHATS BEING PLAYED NOW ON RADIO.I JUST WISH SOMEONE WOULD RELEASE HIS ENTIRE MUSIC CATALOG ON CD.GARY, GEORGE JONES, AND MEAN GENE WATSON ARE WHAT COUNTRY HONKY TONK IS ABOUT.GIVE IT A GO !
Not as good as I was hoping for.......2003-03-28
Let me say right off the bat that I was dissappointed with this disc. The first live album by Honky Tonker Gary Stewart, I was hoping it would be much better than it is. Gary's voice is still in good shape, the songs are classics, but his performance is lacking. He has slowed almost all of the songs down to the point where some, "Drinkin' Thing", "Out Of Hand" sound like totally different songs. This makes it also very tough to sing along with!!! The other problem is he's not so much singing anymore but rather he's speaking the lyrics. Also he's changed the phrasing on some tracks as well. Again making the songs sound totally different. Some great classic hard core country songs on here, "Quits", "Out Of Hand", "Drinkin' Thing", "She's Actin' Single", "Whiskey Trip", "I See The Want To In Your Eyes" and others, but they all pale to the original studio versions. This disc is probably only for diehard Stewart fans, everyone else may as well just get the superior originals on the "Essential Gary Stewart" collection.
