Steve Earle & The Dukes – Guy

In the autumn of 2018, Steve Earle & The Dukes went into House of Blues studio in Nashville and recorded ‘Guy’ in six days. Earle and his current, perhaps best-ever, Dukes lineup, take on these songs with a spirit of reverent glee and invention. The tunes are all over the place and so is the band, offering max energy on such disparate entries as the bluegrass rave-up, ‘Sis Draper’ and the talking blues memoir of ‘Texas 1947’.
