"Took some time off to take care of some life style issues".  Ha!  Heroin addiction is no more a life style issue than being short or gay.

Now I feel alright.

Steve Earle always seems to get a thumbs up from me. Seen him many times (thanks HSB and Warren Hellman, RIP).

The chord progression is called a V IV I turnaround—the blues (or "Louie, Louie") basic I IV V progression is played in reverse. "Gloria" is probably the most celebrated example, but there are hundreds: "What I Like About You" (Romantics), "R-O-C-K in the USA" (Mellencamp) are popular examples, both slightly changed to V I IV I. This is, like the "Louie, Louie" progression (listen carefully to "Magical Mystery Tour"), is a time honored chord structure that stretches back to the roots of modern rock. No wonder it sounds familiar, eh?

I would LOVE to see Steve Earle on a double-bill with Todd Snider.  They're both great storytellers, with a cynical sense of humor.  I hadn't heard this song before, but it's far different from "The Revolution Starts Now" and "Copperhead Road."  I really like it - in fact, I'm starting to appreciate Steve Earle's body of work a whole lot more lately.  Maybe I'm finally realizing that I'm not going to live forever, so I need to be in the moment as much as possible instead of planning for a future that could change in a heartbeat or stop on a dime.

Guh.  I think too much.  Gotta go dance now. {#Bounce}

I believe this was the final episode song on one of the seasons of "The Wire".  He also did the theme song for the last season and appeared in a (some?) episode.
 
Yes, he had an ongoing part as an AA councillor.

Well now, it occurs to me that we haven't heard Steve Earle weigh in on Wikileaks. I'm looking forward to the melody!

Opening notes are, I first thought it was since I just opened up my iTunes player when it started.
