Summary: Justin Townes Earle talks about his childhood as the son of songwriter Steve Earle, his teenage infatuation with drugs and alcohol and why he prefers mountain music of yesteryear over popular music of today .
Well produced! Sounds like a typical musician who grows up not liking his father, drinks, and does drugs. I liked the music, and the piece flowed. However, the message was not particulary inspiring-nor did it teach, or have any sort of lesson built in.
