MUSIC: Steve Earle

[Brainwalter]

I really like "My old friend the blues." I've seen few songs from him on p2p, and the few that I've gotten were an entirely different style and weren't really for me (ie copperhead road). He was recommended in the Sad Songs thread awhile back. What songs should I download or albums should I buy?

Anything you can get your hands on... but I'm a huge fan.


El Corazon
I Feel Alright

Another great sad song is "Goodbye." It is from his acoustic album "Train a Comin'." That is a great album. It also includes a great cover of "I'm Looking Through You."

Goodbye Is All We've Got Left
It's All Up to You
Devil's Right Hand
Angry Young Man

are all great songs. Basically, get anything you can from Steve Earle. He is awesome.

FANTASTIC ALBUM!

N.Y.C and Fort Worth Blues (the song Earle wrote upon learning Townes Van Zandt had passed away) are two incredible songs.
