Now I know not many of you have heard of him but the 1st mass selling Country Outlaw album by Waylon Jennings was completely written by Billy, minus 1 song. That album started the change in country music that brought many outlaw artists to fame, Willie being maybe the biggest. Im glad to say I saw him in concert twice and they were awesome. Look up his list of songs he wrote if you wish, but since this is a coal board, this song is appropriate. Billy wrote it, John Anderson made it famous. Wow, 2 old artists gone in one week.
