Guitar Town

Steve Earle

A high-octane collision of Nashville storytelling and heartland rock. Crisp digital production meets gravel-voiced tales of small-town escape and highway miles.

March 5, 1986 · MCA Records

A restless blend of blue-collar grit and highway-bound optimism.

Moments Worth Listening For
The sharp, metallic guitar riff that opens the title track, signaling a new era of country rock.
The vulnerable, lonely harmonica wail that punctuates the stillness of My Old Friend the Blues.
The driving, propulsive rhythm section on Down the Road that mimics the steady hum of tires on asphalt.
