Ep. 122 - STEVE EARLE ("Guitar Town")

The sixteen-time Grammy nominee and three-time winner joins us to talk about why reading is more important than listening to records; the book Townes Van Zandt loaned him that transformed his view of writing; the concert that inspired Steve to write "Guitar Town;" what he really thinks of the "Copperhead Road" line-dancing phenomenon; the first song he wrote after a long period of drug addiction and homelessness; and who he says is THE badass country singer/songwriter in Nashville today.
