Shaver was an American singer, songwriter, guitarist, and actor. He was born on August 16, 1939 in Corsicana, Texas, USA and passed away on October 28, 2020 in Waco, Texas, USA. Known as the father of Eddy Shaver.
With his unique blend of country and rock music, Shaver made a significant impact on the music industry. His heartfelt lyrics and soulful voice resonated with audiences around the world. He was not only a talented musician but also a gifted actor.
Influenced by artists such as Joe Ely and James Hand among others*, Shaver's music captivated listeners with its raw emotion and honest storytelling. His contributions to the genre will forever be remembered.*

In 1998, New West Records was in its infancy. The label had only released a handful of records before becoming fortunate enough to work with Shaver, a duo consisting of Billy Joe Shaver and his son, Eddy Shaver. The guitar virtuoso son and the outlaw-country hit-songwriter formed an incredible pair that would go on to release 6 critically acclaimed albums. 

Shaver had released three full length albums before signing to New West Records. Their fourth album, Victory, was released in 1998 and helped put the label on the map. The spiritual and almost confessional nature of the record combined with startling vocal performances helped put Billy Joe Shaver front and center again as well.

In celebration of 25 years working with this amazing catalog, New West Records is proud to release Victory on vinyl for the first time.&nbsp;
