Subject: RE: Is Steve Earl folk
El Corazon is a very good album, Willie-O. My favorites are Poison Lovers with the dynamite duet work (what is her name by the way?) and If You Fall in Love. My favorite Steve Earle song ever though has got to be The Devil's Right Hand

My very first pistol was a cap n ball colt
Shoot as fast as lightnin' but she'd load a might slow
She'd load a might slow
Soon found out
Get you into trouble but it can't get you out...The Devil's Right Hand

Pretty good writing. Pretty folky too.
