Stephen Fain Earle was born on 17 January 1955 in Ft.
Monroe, Virginia, where his father was stationed as an air
traffic controller. When Steve's due date approached, a
family member was selected and sent to Virginia with a
small Prince Albert tobacco tin of Lone Star dirt from the
family farm. Grandmama said the dirt was spread in a flat
pan and the little fellow was held up and his feet
imprinted in the Texas dirt. While the family had to
accept that his birth certificate said Virginia, Steve's
granddaddy and uncles were satisfied that the first soil
his feet ever touched was Texan.
Steve's birth was followed by the births of two brothers
and two sisters.
Steve, the eldest child of Jack and Barbara Thomas Earle,
grew up in Schertz, Texas, which is 17 miles north of Sa More...
Review about Steve Earle very interesting | Reviewer: Amy DeVito
------ About artist/band Steve Earle
Ahh, the life and times of Mr. Earle! What an auspicious start, not everyone kicks off a lifetime with feet dusted in Texas soil in a Prince Albert tin.
Very informative....hey, what about his bit part and collaboration on The Wire? He did perform the theme song (even if he didn't write it) for Season Four and was that his only professional acting gig?
Are FUCKIN' kidding me | Reviewer: Horsewoman
------ About the song F The CC performed by Steve Earle
This is what is wrong with this country. You all want us to apologize for being Americans. And God forbid you have your own opinion. I agreed and sided with the Dixie Chicks but this SHIT is just wrong.
Haunting... | Reviewer: S. Green
------ About the song Me And The Eagle performed by Steve Earle
After hearing this song performed by Steve Rankin recently, I looked up the song and lyrics. It is one of the most haunting songs I have ever heard. It seems like it's straight from the heart of a very deep person. I love it.
Just Love It | Reviewer: Sharon Moran
------ About the song The Galway Girl performed by Steve Earle
Spent a year on a working holiday in Galway, just loved this song and brought fine memories back to Aussie. Irish music made me understand so much more about the Irish, can't wait to go back. Still play it a lot.
PS I Love You | Reviewer: Ailidh Gray
------ About the song The Galway Girl performed by Steve Earle
The first time I heard this song was on PS I Love You, and although I must admit both Jeffery Dean Morgan and Gerard... em, whathisface *I cannea remember* did it justice I do love Steve Earle's version the best. :D
I happen to be not Irish, I do apologize, but I am half Scottish and I think I've heard my Dad humming it around the house once or twice but for sure the first time I heard it was on PS- I Love You, and although Jeffery Dean Morgan and Gerard Butler do it a definate justice. I adore the Steve Earle version.

------ About the song John Walker's Blues performed by Steve Earle
I Think This Song Speaks For A Lot Of People.
For Me It Says How People Get Judged And Punished For Standing Up For What They Believe In.
It Is A Hard Hitting Song And I Love It!

Fair Play Steve Earle | Reviewer: GalwayBoy
------ About the song The Galway Girl performed by Steve Earle
Love this song. Have to admitt I hadn't heard of it until Mundy recorded it. Good to know Steve's visit to my hometown inspired him to write such a great tune. Pity the bitch ditched him :-) I also love Earle's use of phrases such as 'fine soft day'. Great Irish farming terminology there!
Perfect Example | Reviewer: Chris
------ About the song Copperhead Road performed by Steve Earle
This song is a perfect example of why Ray Charles liked country music, it has a good beat and a really good story. Plus it gets stuck in your head, I find myself singing it all the time.
Tell it like it is! | Reviewer: David L Richards
------ About the song F The CC performed by Steve Earle
Fantastic tune, and equally fantastic lyrics. Tells it like it is. These "holier than thou" right-wingers wanna take all our rights away and Mr Earle says what's on his (and millions of others) mind. Recommended!
Amazing | Reviewer: dwitefry
------ About the song Rich Man's War performed by Steve Earle
This is, for me, one of the best, if not THE best responses to the Iraq War.
I especially like the final verse twisting to be about a poor boy in Iraq.

------ About the song Cocaine performed by Steve Earle
That's not Steve Earle, it's Jackson Browne from his Running on Empty. Owned.
Lucas loves the south | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Copperhead Road performed by Steve Earle
From the first time my son heard this song, he was hooked. He loves anything about the historic old south. This song has a story that sticks in his head.
My husband and I have always loved the song "Copperhead Road". About 2 weeks ago I was taking my 6 year old son to school. We were trying to find something on the radio and as usual for that time of morning nothing could be found. I put my Steve Earle cassette in and my son fell in love with the song "Copperhead Road". Every time we get in the car my son plays the song over and over. I got that tape for Christmas of 2004. The tape has been played more in the last 2 weeks than the whole time I have had it. I am going to have to buy a new tape before long because mine has started to drag. The song is one of the best story songs around. Most song artist can sing story songs but I do not believe that any other artist could have sang that song as well as Steve Earle.

I love Steve Earle and I love his version of this great song written by the Flying Burrito Brothers although, you should give credit where credit is due.
Condi, Condi, how can you be blind? | Reviewer: jimbo
------ About the song Condi, Condi performed by Steve Earle
Steve Earle rips the admin a new one (per usual) on their stance as warmongers and takes them out one at a time. He tries to "woo" Condaleeza in (how he sees it) much the same manner as the Bush administration has. Of course this won't work, but he doesn't expect it to either. Steve wants to have the war end without another American son's blood shed. I listened to him speak about the shadow government (big businesses with fingers in the dirty money pie) and how they don't care about the rest of the world or how they view the USA, because when the wars keep breaking out, the poor man's sons are the ones shipped off to fight it and Big Business just get richer from the arms sales.
Beware 06/06/06 because the revolution starts NOW!
Distilled Essence of Honkey Tonk | Reviewer: Ham
------ About the song High Fashion Queen performed by Steve Earle
This song with it's biting, cryptic lyrics and straight-up honkey-tonk bass, guitar, and piano lines is both earily archtypal of a genre of seventies-era country while being entirely original and enduring. I first heard this on the Gram Parsons tribute, "Return of the Greivous Angel" and I was smitten from the first time I heard the first unrepentent twang of \Steve Earle's guitar. I still don't know what the hell it's about but I love this tune!
Best damn blues song ever | Reviewer: S Berry
------ About the song West Nashville Boogie performed by Steve Earle
Steve Earle went and done it!
Just when I thought I was tired of the blues and that it all sounded the same to me, some guitar player I meet in Sante Fe Texas, (Bill), turns me on to "West Nashville Boogie".
Sure wish I could find (Bill) & thank him again cause now I've got a whole new library of songs to check out in Steve Earl.
Been playing music in these Houston bars for years and I cant believe I never heard him before.
Thank you Bill..... Thank you Steve Earle.Keep Rockin 'dem blues.
