musicfog.com Joe Ely performs Billy Joe Shaver's "Live Forever" at the Music Fog showcase during SXSW 2010. Recorded live at Threadgill's in Austin, TX on 3/18/2010.
Joe Ely has never received the credit or fame he deserved. One of the most emotional voices in music. He introduced us to a sound we had never heard before or since and no one since then has even come close. This is one of his most beautiful.

Well, better late then never. I recently found this Gem. Knew I was late for supper. His hair is silver now. Recently was driving on Interstate 40 blowing pass Amarillo. Heard a version of Joe singing Gallo De Ciello. Tom Russell's masterpiece. Made that drive a walk in the park.

As I listen to this I think of Jesse Taylor, Joe's old guitarist and my dear friend who left us in March of 2006.

It's been 35+ years since I first saw Joe at the Soap Creek Saloon, just after his first album. Saw him just last week as well. His version of this BJS classic is as good as it gets - thanks for posting!

DOES IT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS !! I know it will if Music Fog has more. I never get tired of listening to Music Fog and all they have done for the Folk Singers. Not too mention what they've done for my ears. Go Joe !

I must admit that I hadn’t heard of you Joe but I have now. That’s a lovely version of that song. Sometimes I hear a song and it stays in my head 24/7. This will probably be my earworm for the next two or three weeks and that’s ok with me.

@WrixV2 When I got the Live @ Antone's cd and heard the blistering guitars on Up On The Ridge, I had to find out who that was and of course, Jesse Taylor was who I found. He was already gone by the time I read up on him, but he sure seemed like a guy I'd have loved to have for a friend.

Does anyone here know where I can get the tablature for Joe Ely's beautiful acoustic version of this song? There are a dozen tabs and chords for the Billy Joe Shaver's version but nothing on Joe Ely's heartwarming rendition 😔 I see that he plays it with the capo on the fourth and uses the chord succession: C, Am, C, G, C but the finger work happens to fast too follow in this video.

@Jethro719 He was indeed a gentle giant and I loved him like a brother. Check out Darren Welch, David Holt & David Grissom(Storyville), ArcAngels, and check out Austin Unlocked & Virtual Lubbock to find some other great Texas guitarists. Virtual Lubbock also has the strories behind the players.
