Editorial Reviews

Product Description

This album features guest appearances by everyone from Emmylou Harris to The Supersuckers to The Fairfield Four.

Amazon.com

Having watched him throw away the prime years of his career on smack and prison, Steve Earle fans were reassured by the singer's 1995 comeback, Train A Comin', where he reclaimed the past in exquisite acoustic arrangements. They were further encouraged by the 1996 followup, I Feel Alright, which staked out the present with rock & roll defiance. Their patient faith was rewarded with El Corazon, an album that no longer looks back at those lost years but looks forward to the rest of Earle's career. Combining the sheer beauty of Train A Comin' with the bristling energy of I Feel Alright, El Corazon plows new ground with Earle's most explicitly political song yet, his furthest leap into another character's voice, a hard-core bluegrass number with the Del McCoury Band, and a hard-core grunge rocker with the Supersuckers. Earle turns the Fairfield Four into the Jordanaires behind his Elvis vocal on "Telephone Road," and he imitates Townes Van Zandt's austere minimalism even as he sings an elegy to his late mentor on "Fort Worth Blues." All in all, these dozen tunes are the best songwriting Earle has produced since his 1986 breakthrough, Guitar Town, and he sings them with the take-it-or-leave-it authority of someone who has nothing left to prove. On the album's first and best song, "Christmas in Washington," he offers a mournful prayer to Woody Guthrie to come back and rescue us from an era of wishy-washy Democrats and ruthless Republicans; Earle sings it as if his prayer had been answered and the Okie troubadour's ghost had found a home in his belly. --Geoffrey Himes

I LOVE JUST ABOUT EVERY SONG THAT STEVE HAS RECORDED & RELEASED. THIS CD COMPLIMENTS MY VINYL COLLECTION. EVENTUALLY I WILL HAVE EVERY CD OF STEVES MUSIC. THIS CD HAS SOME "OUTSTANDING HITS" FOR EARLE FANS.IT TAKES YOU BACK TO AN EARLIER DAY.WHEN "MAINSTREAM MUSIC" WAS IN CONTROL. STEVE COMES THROUGH THE "COOKIE CUTTER" NASHVILLE WAY OF PROMOTING THEIR MUSIC BY "STICKING TO HIS BELIEFS" & DELIVERING A STYLE THAT'S HIS & HIS ALONE. REGARDLESS OF HIS EARLY.INFLUENCES LIKE "DYLAN". THIS IS A COLLECTION OF SONGS THAT WILL NOT DISAPPOINT MUSIC LOVERS. I PARTICULARY LOVE THE SONG " POISON LOVERS & "TELEPHONE ROAD" DELIVERS A "LOUISIANA STYLE SOUND" THAT REMINDS YOU OF A "CAJUN & CREOLE" STLE OF MUSIC. EVERY SONG THIS MUSIC FAN ENJOYS LISTENING TO IT OVER & OVER AGAIN. SO , IF YOU LOVE MUSIC , & YOU ARE A STEVE EARLE FAN , YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH THIS CD OR ALBUM. "BUY IT" , BECAUSE YOU "MAY REGRET IT IF YOU DON'T"!

I've been listening to Mr. Earle for long enough that the only thing I know I can expect from him are a solid dose of really great song writing. Skillfully written and instrumented, crossing genres and throwing a healthy bite of social commentary in your face to remind you he's nobody's top 40 wimp. Always well engineered and balanced but absolutely no slick production value. A death before autotune kind of guy. If his music doesn't tell you what page he's on, take out the liner notes and give them a read, in fact do that anyway. They're entertaining at least and thought provoking at their best.

I bought this album when it was first released in 1997. It's chock full of great songs and in several genres. But I just bought the vinyl version of this album and I have to say it is really wonderful. The sound is crisp and warm, and my copy has no ticks or pops of poorly made vinyl. If you love Steve Earle and are a fan of vinyl, this is a great purchase.

I am a great fan of Steve Earle, so I know I'm biased, but this is a great album. Every one of the twelve songs on here is a winner, and stands on it's own merits; there's not a dud or a song that "members only" will like. This album proves the title of a song from another album "Cocaine Cannot Kill My Brain" Steve Earle's brain is still intact and working well.

5.0 out of 5 stars 9.5 on the Earle Scale

Came to this one going progressively backwards after starting with Jerusalem (a 9.8 on the Earle-o-meter) and going forwards a couple of albums, then wanting more. Now having done everything since 1996's "I'm Alright", "El Corazon" is among my current favorites, capturing almost all elements of Steve's brilliant lyrical sense and phrasing.

There's only a small handful of people on the planet at any given time worth listening to musically. Steve Earle's one. Even though he seems to have run out of gas in the last few years, this CD was recorded when he was at full stride in the zone.

Vous aimez Bruce Springsteen , N Young ,B Dylan et bob Seger dans leur bons jours et ceci est pour vous et plus encore encore meilleur que le superbe "copperhead road pourtant un must de rock US millesimé de la fin des années 80 ,et donc un des meilleurs de cette triste période musicalement parlant .
Tout prend les tripes les balades les rocks ,jamais trop tranchés mais toujours efficace et sensible.
Le prisme est large du bluegrass ,duo "countrysant" au rock avec des accents stonien et même "Clash "voire lou reed ( NYC )
Sorti au milieu des années 90 l'homme a survécu à la dope ,à la taule .

ce disque est l'équivalent de "the river " nebraska ", modern times " tonight the night" des susnommés ! vraiment
mon préféré ,à ce jour ,car je le redécouvre en ayant ressorti de façon parallèle l'oeuvre du boss préféré en studio car son "live "sorti en 91"shut up and die like and aviator" est tout simplement un des 10 plus grands "live "de l'histoire et à coup sûr le plus ignoré ! .
mais ceci fera l'objet d'une prochaine rubrique !

5.0 out of 5 stars Probably my favourite Steve Earle record
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 26, 2014

I remember when I first heard something by Steve Earle, many years ago. The song "Copperhead Road" was playing to the end-credits of the long-defunct Chart Show on C4, and I was about 13; but it stuck with me, and I bought his records, up until "I Feel Alright" in 1995 (his first "clean" album, not that I knew about his extraordinary personal life at the time). Many years later Steve Earle guested on the excellent "30 Rock", and I thought why did I stop listening to him? So I bought the exhaustive biography "Hardcore Troubadour" by Lauren St. John, and the albums I`d missed. For whatever reason, this one has appealed to me most of all and I really love it.

Maybe it`s because this seems more fun - especially if you compare to "The Hard Way". It has some of the attitude of early Dylan, serious observations and cutting attacks mixed with allusions and amusing, sharply observed bon-mots. So you get the range from "Christmas in Washington" and "Taneytown", politically aware, along with the funny "You Know The Rest", almost straight-out-rock of "Here I Am" and "NYC", and the intensely personal "Fort Worth Blues" - as beautiful a song as Earle has recorded. There aren`t any "skip" songs on this record - it`s a masterpiece from one of the real masters of modern music.
