36: Steve Earle
Most of us found out about Steve Earle when his first album, \u201cGuitar Town\u201d came out in 1986. It is still one of the best first album from any artist ever. To date he has released 17 albums and won Grammeys for several of them. If that weren\u2019t enough, he has appeared in 2 television series, \u201cThe Wired\u201d and \u201cTreme\u201d and written 2 books. His most recent album \u201cGuy\u201d is composed entirely of songs by one of his Texas songwriting mentors, Guy Clark. \xa0In this podcast Steve shares his strong opinions on a range of topics: recording techniques, musicians who deserve the designation- genius, his admiration for his touring band, The Dukes, the quality of certain acoustic and electric guitars etc. It\u2019s a rapid fire conversation where the facts and anecdotes come at you fast and furious. If you\u2019re a SLN listener you will love this podcast.
