about

After a Blasters’ show at The Country Club in Reseda, Los Lobos handed Phil Alvin a cassette. “Hey! We’re a band from East L.A.!” Phil responded: “We’re from East L.A. too!” Later, the Blasters asked the band to open for them at the Whisky a Go Go, which eventually led to Los Lobos’ first label signing with Slash Records.

Louie: They welcomed us in and made us feel like we were a part of their family.

Steve: I was in the Blasters. I met them through Phast Phreddie, then I sat in with Los Lobos, and so… There might have been a Los Lobos without the Blasters, but we certainly wouldn’t be where we are today. They were not just inspirational, but aspirational.

David: We owe ‘em a lot. We wouldn’t be anywhere without the Blasters. They were the first guys to help us out, to break into the L.A. scene and widen our audience.

Conrad: We love those guys. They’re our brothers.

Cesar: We’re forever thankful. That goes for all of us.

J.T.
by Steve Earle & The Dukes

supported by 157 fans who also own “Flat Top Joint”

The best I've heard from Steve Earle in a while. The songs have a subtler, earthier tone, tastefully rendered in authentic sounding country/blues/bluegrass stylings. 'J.T' reminds of earlier records like 'Feel Alright' or 'Train a Comin'. Deep grief, love and compassion is felt on the final track, the only composition from Steve, seemingly written for his son. The rest, composed by JT, do confirm what a great songwriter he really was. tideracer
