Steve Earle - Transcendental Blues

[nemiiscute27]

i'm sorry but i have no clue what he's saying...

[radsoup89]

such a boss



[curiousdebois]

He's like an onion wrapped in phyllo, swaddled in blankets, under a mile of earth, his layers are relentless Genius!!

[howardstadt]

@curiousdebois inventive description! 

[grollum2]

Is that Bruce Matishke on lead guitar?

Sure looks like him!

[darlincommitme]

@grollum2

No - Eric Ambel.

[grollum2]

Nuff said :)

I listen to a lot of music and can honestly say that this song is one of my favorite songs of all time. The guitar riffs are magical to say the least.

[RedowlMB]

Love this song!

[kinkywon06]

steve earle is one of the best singer songwriters of this century. his music and olotics blend perfectly, a man who writes about what he beleives in.

[lookout4kneegrows]

steve earl is amazing.. hes todays john lennon.. mixed with hank willams and the know how to put just the right amount of hook into something

[YaroKior]

Is this KURT COBAINS DAD?

HAHA

[nilradem]

@YaroKior and @niuniek777

Nirvana was a great band, but if you folks think that is where the influences are here, you need to learn more about music. There is a whole history before Cobain, though they do draw on some of the same influences, Steve learned it much earlier.

And no, he is Justin Townes Earle's dad.

and that's eric idle playiing lead yes? (of joan jett / del lords fame)

[nilradem]

@pamxtom

Eric Idle is an actor --- but yes, Eric "Roscoe" Ambel of the Del Lords is on guitar. Kelly Looney on bass and Will Rigby on drums.

[niuniek777]

Sounds like Nirvana blues, GREAT!!

[probinson1337]

exposed to Townes Van Zandt and Guy Clark at 17, he had no choice but to become a folk music god

[Augustjaz]

This Album is ten years old now. This song still sounds great, like it was written yesterday.. Love him......

[SteelRocker]

[007brush]

[007brush]

[sleepyhose]

@007brush Hi there....Steve is playing an electric: An Epiphone Casino. The lead guitarist is playing a Gibson Les Paul Special w/ P90 pickups. The bassist is playing what looks like a '51 Fender P-Bass. (The early P-bass models had Tele style headstocks)

[007brush]
