Warner Bros. To Reissue Six Steve Earle Albums On Vinyl

Steve Earle fans will now be able to purchase remastered versions of six of his classic albums next month, beginning with a trio of reissues on September 22. The Mountain, Earle’s Grammy-nominated 1999 collaboration with the Del McCoury Band, the Grammy-nominated Transcendental Blues, originally released in 2000, and Earle’s 2002 compilation album, Sidetracks, are all being re-released by Warner Bros. All six albums, (originally released via E-Squared/Artemis Records) will be available in vinyl and CD formats.

Following on September 29 will be Earle’s 2002 release Jerusalem, which contains the controversial “John Walker’s Blues,” Earle’s 2003 live set, Just An American Boy, and his Grammy-winning 2004 album, The Revolution Starts Now. The reissues mark the first time that Sidetracks and Just An American Boy have been released on vinyl. In addition, a remastered version of 1997’s El Corazón will be released for the first time on vinyl on November 24 (Black Friday).

The official video for “Goodbye Michelangelo” was released today, and can be viewed here. Hailed as “a touching tribute to the late Guy Clark” by Pitchfork, the track is from Earle’s new album, So You Wannabe an Outlaw. Earle and his band The Dukes are currently touring in support of the new album. He’ll play two sold-out nights at the historic Troubadour in L.A. on August 11-12 and 30 dates through October.
