Billy Don Burns is an Outlaw Country legend. Born and raised in Arkansas, he has crisscrossed the country repeatedly over the years. He just got back from Ireland, and he has a new album out, I've Seen a Lot of Highway, which chronicles decades of heavy touring and drugging, drinking, and "kicking ass." A survivor of bad bar fights, an 18 month prison stretch, and six marriages, he turned 74 this year. Has he changed from the hellraiser he once was? You decide. Along the way, Billy Don talks about working with Shooter Jennings and the late Mack Vickery as well as encounters with Waylon Jennings and Jerry Lee Lewis.

i’ve been doing religion a little bit recently. well, not religion but ritual. it’s been a way to share a cultural experience i had as a kid with friends who had other experiences. and to connect and commiserate with friends that have had similar experiences.and maybe it’s also been an attempt at reclaiming the years of my life going through (what i’ve learned as i reflect were) meaningless ritual. family time felt significant but the rituals feel meaningless devoid of any larger critical context. i’m very very thankful to folks who have written thoughtful and radical haggadot. here’s the anti-zionist haggadah we used for passover this year: bit.ly/40xX3d0.this isn’t a part of my life i’m looking to cultivate much more than an excuse to prepare a seder and make and share food with friends a few times a year, but reflecting on my position as an american jew while palestinians live under violent occupation in my name can be a daily ritual.DOWNLOAD/STREAM RECORDING00:00 (intro by omar)00:20 NOTCHES “Funny How” New Kinda Love02:50 Shannon Lay “Blue” Blue08:36 Winter “I Feel” Hazy11:32 Unclaimed Diamonds “Sick Slab” The First Five Slabs13:14 Chris Weisman “Welcome To Reality Smith” Billy Don’t Pawn Your Horn16:43 a certain smile “Honey Do” BAE19:08 Cochonne “OMEGA” COCHONNE20:36 iji “I Don’t Ever Wanna Go Back” iji24:57 Squirt “Sad Year” Ruff Start EP28:13 Trust Fall “Calmed Storm” Bloodstream EP31:09 Jib kidder “CNN” Sums34:00 The Buk Buk Bigups “Last Load” Big Big Fuckups36:41 Era Bleak “Tinderbox” Demo 201738:06 Dust from 1000 yrs “three” Life and Death in a World Without Words41:24 Feeble “Stratford” Growing Out Of Touch44:16 Little Gunpowder “Regrets” Don’t Fall Asleep46:31 Novopain “Living” Novopain48:28 The Fragiles “Long Arms” The Fragiles51:11 unlimited guests “rivers casino” cauldron52:48 Cold Beat “She’s Invisible Now” A Simple Reflection

In this episode of the Success Fundamentals Podcast, Kris Sykes and Brian Goldsack talk to Billy Samoa Saleeby, the CEO and Co-Founder of Podify. Billy is also an award-winning filmmaker and is the former Head of Global Sales and Product Training at Tesla. Billy talks about his journey from filmmaker to podcast entrepreneur, and the many lessons he learned along the way. He also shares some sage advice on how to stand out from any saturated market, focusing on the problem first, and The First Principles Thinking, which he learned directly from Elon Musk.HIGHLIGHTSAll about creating experiences Billy's creative process: give your brain a break We're hardwired to not pay attention to familiarityFocus on the problem, not the solutionProvide more value than you take in paymentStand out by using the First Principles ThinkingBe the master of the beast in your headSuccess can be more dangerous than failureFind a long term sustainable interest for what you want to be known for We all want to leave something behindDeep dive into succeeding in podcastingNiche down until it hurtsSpend time with marketing Money directs too much of our attention and too many of our actionsPower is opportunity, ability, and responsibilityQUOTESBilly: "To me, success wears many hats and it finds itself in bizarre places. But the thing to remember is we all are in control of how we show up int h world and what we bring to the world. When we do things that people remember, that's when we stand out." Billy: "Any business that's successful needs to have a few things. It needs to understand what problem they are solving, not necessarily what is the right solution. The problem that's being solved is most important. The solution to that problem is determined by your own ability to pivot and find the right solution for your specific potential customer. I think all too often, people get too wedded and too married to a specific solution and not first talking about that hair-on-fire problem."Billy: "When you provide more in value than you take in my payment, people feel like you are somebody that they can't live without. I think right now, to your point that there's so many things out there. You could get this subscription and this membership, and this, and that, but if people feel that they can't live without you, they're gonna be a customer for the long term. And they'll feel that way if you have their best interest at heart." Billy: "The First Principles Thinking is not iterating from what currently exists. So for example, in Tesla, Elon could have said, okay all these cars exist, I'm just gonna make it incrementally better than all the other cars out there. He didn't do that. Instead he said, ‘let's look at this from the ground up, if no car ever existed how can we build it in a way that will serve the need and deliver something that's gonna blow people away.'"Billy: "Don't allow the beast in your head to make you second guess in yourself and turn into the direction that you don't need to turn."Billy: "Niche down, niche down again, and niche down until it hurts. So how do you narrow down who it is you're speaking to 'cause if you try to speak to everyone, then you actually speak to no one."

This week we visit with Bo Donaldson of Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods. Their big hits were 1974's "Billy Don't Be A Hero" and "Who Do You Think You Are". Bo and The Cowsills crossed paths when we signed on with the "Original Idols Live" tour in 2007. Bo was the musical director. A crazy combination of The Cowsills, Barry Williams, Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods, Leif Garrett, and the Bay City Rollers! Great stories from back then and hear why it is that Bo's first million-seller, "Billy Don't Be A Hero" only became a hit because "Mom Knew Best!Song of the Week: Billy Don't Be A Hero
This week, outlaw country music icons the legendary Billy Don Burns and his protege Josh Morningstar recorded live at Ozark Folk Center State Park. Also, interviews with these artistic outlaws. As country music moved towards a more slick commercial “Nashville sound” in the 1970s, some of its most notable artists bucked the trend. Influential country musicians such as Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings fought back against the major studios and won the right to record their music the way they wanted. With its roots in blues, honky tonk, rockabilly, and rock & roll, outlaw country has become a musical genre all its own. In Stone County, Arkansas, we have a legendary outlaw singer-songwriter right here in our community. Since the early days of outlaw country, Billy Don Burns has been a go to songwriter for artists like Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings. Now in his 70s, Billy Don is still at it. BDB crisscrosses the country on his Harley Davidson while producing hit songs recorded by country music legacy Shooter Jennings, rising country music star Cody Jinks, and many others. Also featured on this episode of OHR is Billy Don's protege Josh Morningstar. An up and coming outlaw, Josh Morningstar has also had hit songs recorded by Cody Jinks. “Billy Don Burns is one of the few remaining original outlaw country music singer songwriters. This long and hard road paved with a honky tonk reality has taken him from Stone County, Arkansas and around the world touring for the past fifty years. He has been described as The Warrior Poet who has gained the respect of some of the greatest songwriters including Billy Joe Shaver, David Lynn Jones, Johnny Cash, and Willie Nelson. Some of BDB's critically acclaimed albums are ‘Desperate Men' with Hank Cochran, and “Heroes, Friends and Other Troubled Souls” with Hank Cochran, Willie Nelson, and Tanya Tucker. Johnny Paycheck, Willie, Connie Smith, Mel Tillis, and Sammy Kershaw have recorded his songs. A few artists that have recently recorded his songs are Cody Jinks, Colter Wall, and Whitey Morgan. Other BDB albums are ‘Graveyard in Montgomery,' ‘Train Called Lonesome,' and the live album produced by Shooter Jennings in Joshua Tree, California called ‘A Night in Room 8,' the room where Gram Parsons died. The newest album ‘The Country Blues,' is BDB's latest effort.” - The Hollywood Times “A curious and fresh combination of grit and humor, Josh Morningstar is knocking down stereotypes with his worn boots and unforgettable raspy voice. He is a small-town boy that originally hails from Funkstown, Maryland, and he carries those roots in a suitcase with him everywhere he goes. His small-town charm is evident in the way he greets people, and in the conversational way that he weaves the stories of his life into his music. “In front of the bright lights and behind the microphone isn't where Morningstar feels most at home. Named the 2018 Texas Radio Songwriter of the Year, he and his Kristofferson signed guitar have knocked out melodies in dingy hotels all across the country. He's written songs alongside Kendell Marvel, Channing Wilson, Autumn McEntire, and many more. Morningstar was also the writer of several Cody Jinks songs, including his #1 hit “Must Be The Whiskey.” - https://joshmorningstar.com In this week's “From the Vault” segment, musician, educator, and country music legacy Mark Jones offers a 1975 archival recording of Ozark original Uncle Floyd Holland performing the traditional tune “Nellie Grey,” from the Ozark Folk Center State Park archives. Author, folklorist and songwriter Charley Sandage presents an historical portrait of the people, events and indomitable spirit of Ozark culture that resulted in the creation of the Ozark Folk Center State Park and its enduring legacy of music and craft. In this episode, Charley describes the Ozark journey of famed folk song collector Alan Lomax.
Philip Wright is lead singer and drummer of Paper Lace – famous for its 1974 #1 hit “The Night Chicago Died.” But right before then, Paper Lace had another #1 hit– “Billy Don’t Be a Hero” -- in the U.K. and Australia. (It was covered by Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods here.)In this episode, we talk with Phil about...How he and Paper Lace got started.The band's big break on the TV show "Opportunity Knocks," which led to...Connecting with the hit songwriting team of Mitch Murray and Peter Callander, which led to...The band's big hits "Billy Don't Be a Hero" and "The Night Chicago Died."Chicago Mayor Daley's negative reaction to the song (and the band).What happened after the hits.What he's up to now, including membership in three bands!
The focus is on those gummily great sad songs! Run, Joey, Run, Seasons in the Sun, Billy Don't Be a Hero, The Legend of Billy Jack, it's all here.

It’s finally time for the second cover song of Season 1! It’s a +44 cover of a very good Smashing Pumpkins song and I think that’s very interesting because, in another universe, I did this show about Smashing Pumpkins and called it Smashing Idea, James! or Let’s Get Smashed! or Billy Don’t Be a Zero! … Continue reading Episode 67 – I Am One →
