I've been a fan of Steve Earle
since Guitar Town and Exit 0, and this is another fine
effort. What
I'm not crazy about are the somewhat overt political messages here.
Another liberal peacenik, which is pretty tiring and just plain wrong.
I could write a book on it, but that's not my intent in a music review.
Even the controversial John Walker's Blues could be interpreted
to be about just a lost, dopey person, and not a statement in favor
of the Taliban. Anyway, if you like alt-country with a touch of rock,
Steve Earle is still a good choice.
