Steve Earle is releasing a book and CD with the same name, I’ll Never Get Out Of This World Alive. Is he roots, Americana, country, bluegrass, or outlaw country? Yes! He never stays in one spot long either. I’m getting the book and the CD. You should too.
“Steve Earle brings to his prose the same authenticity, poetic spirit and cinematic energy he projects in his music. I’ll Never Get Out of This World Alive is like a dream you can’t shake, offering beauty and remorse, redemption in spades.”
–Patti Smith
just heard him perform live on KEXP on saturday. consumate artist and pretty funny guy, too.
I saw him once in concert, he referred to himself as a redneck communist.
