Brilliant!If you haven't yet fallen in love with Steve Earle, here's your latest chance. Wherever Steve Earle is is where Steve Earle shines, and for sure New York City is no exception. Each song is gorgeous, fresh and new. The writing and production is fabulous from what might be called "hillbilly hip-hop" on "Satellite Radio" and "Tennessee Blues" to the lilting, Beatlesque "Days Aren't Long Enough". Thoughtful, gentle "Come Home To Me" is especially poignant for those of us who've loved and lost and lived to finally find real love. "Down Here Below" is midtown Manhattan with a brilliant, NYC-meets-Tennessee banjo break. Other simply outstanding tracks include... every other song on the album. If you think you can write a song, listening to Steve Earle will either make you want to put down your pen forever or try a heck of a lot harder. The man just oozes impeccable music, and presents it in such a down home way he makes such genius seem as every-day as putting gas in your car, but we know better. I can't wait for more from Mr. Earle. Pale Male might not care, but I sure do. April 24, 2008
Politically Correct Drivel
I like Steve Earle a lot and have several of his albums. The only song on this record I have heard is City of Immigrants. It is a catchy toon, but the lyrics are banal and politically correct. If you listen to it you will want to wrap your head in duct tape so it won't explode. The bridge is downright goofy.
Sorry Steve. You really tried too hard to be meaningful and ended up being pedagogical.
Aaakkk. March 18, 2008
Would have liked a couple rock tunes
Great CD I just wish it would have had a couple more rock tunes on it.
You know the one's that have that Keith Richard's feel. Loved the DVD as well,I just hope I don't have to wait 3 more years for some great Steve Earle tunes! March 9, 2008
Old days gone.
This is not the old Mr. Earle. He changed some time ago. Acoustic or electric, he does not cut it for me anymore. I wish him well. February 20, 2008
Best Ever!
This is the best of Steve's career! Wonderful, catchy song rhythms and lyrics on many songs, great messages, beautiful backing vocals. January 12, 2008
