Talk:Steve Earle: Difference between revisions

 

Has there been explicit rejection in forming those criteria of family connections that are also professional? Of mentoring? I think that these add weight. Townes and Clark more influential on Earle (and he on his son) than Del McCoury, for instance, even if McCour fits the criteria better. They are formative, and he says so repeatedly. Though he, Townes and Guy Clark do have a live album and he did tour with both at tiems as a young man. I think you are going on the letter rather than the spirit of the criteria in removing most these, especially Guy, Townes, JTE and Moorer. More generally, the criteria seem to be written with bands, rather than singer-songwriter acts, in mind, and the relationships are different. Years spent hanging out playing music together (as is documented in Heartworn Highways) before they were well known may not appear to be important, but can be "are significant and notable to this artist's career."

Joan Baez- Earle produced Baez album

''MOORER - not Moore - has toured off and on since 2004, and appeared on several albums and single projects, produced one of her albums''Del McCoury Band-- Earle made an album with them

''and toured, had one song on an album before the collaboration - fits clearly''

Justin Townes Earle (son)

collaborated on a couple songs, JTE was briefly in his band as a teen, clear influence on JTE's career

Stacy Earle (sister) --She sang background vocals on an early album or two, yes?

''and on one later album, and toured with him in his band as instrumentalist, as did her husband later. Got her start in his band.''

Guy Clark--Earle appeared on a few songs for one album. right?

Buddy Miller''''touring band for El Corazon, have appeared on other songs together''
