A biography of a legendary singer and song-writer, written with his
co-operation, this is the life behind the award-winning and
bestselling albums of Steve Earle, rebel, rocker and Nashville
legend. Steve Earle is the musicians' idol - "my hero" to Emmylou
Harris - who has said of his life "If I'd known I was going to live
this long I'd have taken better care of myself". He was taking
heroin at 13, and by the age of 40 was mired in a seemingly
permanent "vacation in the ghetto" as he described his life then.
In and out of jail for a variety of offences, Earle seemed
determined to make good on his boast that when the end of the world
came (and it seemed pretty close at times) only he, Keith Richards
and the cockroaches would be left standing. He has been married six
times, twice to the same woman, and amazingly forgiven by almost
all of the ex-wives. In moments of consciousness he has, through
sheer musical ability, shared a stage with, among others, Bruce
Springsteen, Neil Young, Sheryl Crow, the Pogues and Bob Dylan.
