Copperhead Road (1988) was Steve Earle's declaration of independence from Nashville, and it also became an important milestone of the early alt-country music movement. Instrumentally diverse, the songs feature mandolin, dobro, banjo, pedal steel, lap steel and harmonica rocking with the electric guitars and drums. Celtic/outlaw country/rock n' roll/bluegrass. There's plenty of "just leave me the hell alone" attitude here, too. Think backwoods whiskey stills and pot farms, trouble with the law, guns, Vietnam Vets and desperado love songs here. Steve Earle knows his way around just fine, and he's quite capable of weaving interesting yarns that effectively bring the tough people, places and situations he sings about to life. On Copperhead Road, Earle looks and sounds like a southern biker version of Springsteen/Mellencamp. One who can't seem to stay out of trouble. He does surprise us with the tender Nothing But A Child, a touching meditation on the birth of Jesus that's very enjoyable. The Devil's Right Hand tells the tale of a 19th Century teenager and his fascination with guns which eventually gets him into trouble after he shoots a miner who cheated him in a card game. Not guilty I said, You've got the wrong man Nothing touched the trigger but the devil's right hand The title song tells the story of an Army veteran who returns home to the family moonshine business in Tennessee after two tours of duty in Vietnam. He has PTSD and a new plan to grow Columbian and Mexican marijuana for profit. Well the D.E.A.'s got a chopper in the air I wake up screaming like I'm back over there I learned a thing or two from ol' Charlie don't you know You better stay away from Copperhead Road This Deluxe Edition of Copperhead Road features a bonus disc that includes seventeen live recordings from shows in Raleigh, North Carolina and Calgary, Canada. This is great stuff here, and Earle performs live versions of Bruce Springsteen's Nebraska, The Rolling Stones' Dead Flowers, Gram Parsons' Wheels, and his own Guitar Town, the hit single from his debut album. If you're a Steve Earle fan, don't miss out on this deluxe version of Copperhead Road. Either one of these two discs is worth the price of admission here, but both of them together in one package makes this a must-have. "...Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand."
