Hardcore Troubadour by Lauren St John, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

If Steve Earle weren't a living, breathing person, he'd be a character in a blues song - a raucous ballad about a gifted rebel who drank too much, lost most of his women in a blizzard of crack and cocaine addiction, and always came out on the wrong side of the law. Somewhere in the midst of all this, he also managed to weld rock to country, the Beatles to Springsteen, and bluegrass to punk, establishing himself among the most thoroughly original and politically astute musicians of his generation. Granted unrestricted access to Steve and his family and friends, Lauren St John has given us a sometimes shocking, often moving, and completely unvarnished biography of one of America's most talismanic sons. | Hardcore Troubadour by Lauren St John, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
