David Allan Coe is a notable outlaw country music artist. He achieved his greatest popularity in the early ‘70s. During his music career, the musician has written and performed about three hundred original songs. Coe is also a talented songwriter. One of his best-recognized compositions is "Would You Lay with Me (in a Field of Stone)" (recorded by Tanya Tucker).
David Allan Coe is still touring giving several shows a week. His son is playing guitar, in addition to Joe Finn, his longtime guitarist and friend. Coe’s concerts are still as wild and exciting as they ever were.
The singer has a wonderful talent to draw very diverse crowds to his music, from bikers and old hippies to teenagers and elderly people. In one of his songs, "Longhaired Redneck," the musician describes his audience.
In late 2005, David Allan Coe was featured together with Toby Keith, Jack Ingram, Billy Joe Shaver, Merle Haggard, and Shelby Lynne on CMT's CMT Outlaws.
David's songs are famous for strong rock arrangements, very often with a Caribbean touch, like in the song "Divers Do It Deeper". Sometimes he features tough guitar solos ("Longhaired Redneck"), verbal facility ("X's and O's"), and personal lyrics like in the song "Willie, Waylon, and Me".
The singer’s long and successful career has included twenty-six LPs. Matter of Life... and Death was probably one of the most critically acclaimed.
