Notes & Personnel Info |  | Personnel: Jamie Hartford, Pat McLaughlin, Randy Scruggs (acoustic guitar); Eddy Shaver (electric guitar); Laura Cash (fiddle); Paco Shipp (harmonica); Tony Harrell (accordion); Dave Roe (electric bass); Dave Pomeroy (bass guitar); Freddy Joe Fletcher, Kenny Malone, Rick Lonow (drums); The Whole Gang (percussion); Etta Britt (background vocals). | | Additional personnel: John Anderson, Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson, Tanya Tucker, Bill Miller (vocals); Marty Stuart (electric guitar). | | A Billy Joe Shaver album is always cause for celebration, but on this 2007, Grammy-nominated release, the outlaw country troubadour shines in a whole new way. Produced by John Carter Cash, the album features all country-gospel originals, half of them sung in duet with a laundry list of country greats, including the late Johnny Cash, old partner in crime Kris Kristofferson, and Tanya Tucker. Although the Christian-themed lyrics are utterly sincere, fans needn't worry that Shaver has gone soft on them. The music crackles with country-rocking, honky-tonking fire. |

| | Professional Reviews | | Uncut (p.123)
- 3 stars out of 5 -- "[A] rowdy, hotrod duet with John Anderson...and the epic, slow-burning firebrand of the title cut are top shelf."Dirty Linen (p.53)
- "He may sing about God, but he retains the rowdy energy that made his early recordings so memorable." No Depression (p.95)
- "The wear in his voice and the tenacious faith in his soul underscore songs written years ago for his late wife that now fuse love, sorrow and faith into eulogies for her and their enduing relationship." |
