The album was released to favorable reviews. It became Shaver's first album to chart on Billboard's Top Country Albums and the Billboard 200, peaking at 19 and 157 respectively. RecordingSeven year's after his previous album Everybody's Brother was released, singer Todd Snider convinced Shaver to write new material and record a new album. Shaver called Ray Kennedy and Gary Nicholson to produce the release, consisting entirely of newly written material. Shaver co-wrote the title-track with actor Paul Gleason.[1] Shaver defined the tracks and finished the writing while recording in the studio, completing previous ideas and selecting from his newly written work the ten tracks.[2] Tracks of the album featured guest appearances. Willie Nelson contributed to background vocals in "Hard To Be An Outlaw", while his harmonicist, Mickey Raphael played throughout the album. Leon Russell played piano in "Last Call For Alcohol" and Tony Joe White played guitar in the title-track. Before the release of Long In The Tooth, Nelson recorded and released "The Git Go" and "Hard To Be An Outlaw" in his country chart topper Band of Brothers.[3] ReleaseOn May 22, 2014, Rolling Stone premiered the single-duet with Willie Nelson "Hard To Be An Outlaw".[4] The album was released on August 5, 2014 by Lightning Rod Records.[5] After a 41-year career, Long in the Tooth became Billy Joe Shaver's first album to chart in Billboard's Top Country Albums, entering the chart at 19.[6] The album also entered the Billboard 200, peaking at 157.[7] Critical reception{{Album ratings| MC = (76/100)[8] |rev1 = Austin Chronicle |rev1score = {{Rating|4|5}}[9] |rev2= Record Collector |rev2score = {{Rating|4|5}}[10] |rev3= PopMatters |rev3score = {{Rating|7|10}}[11] |rev4= American Songwriter |rev4score = {{Rating|3.5|5}}[12] |rev5= Allmusic |rev5score = {{Rating|3.5|5}}[13] |rev6= The Observer |rev6score = {{Rating|3|5}}[14] |rev7= Esquire |rev7score= Positive[15] |rev8=Uncut |rev8score={{Rating|8|10}}[16] }} According to the aggregate scores website Metacritic, the album opened to "generally favorable reviews", based on eight reviews.[8] Austin Chronicle rated the album with four stars out of five, declaring: "Here's Shaver the irascible honky-tonk hero, older but no less ornery".[9] Record Collector rated it with four stars out of five, noting that Long in the Tooth offers "a masterclass in redneck storytelling".[10]PopMatters rated it with seven points out of ten.
