Steve Earle: Ellis Unit One
[purchase]
Here's one more quickie that didn't quite fit in with the happy songs I posted yesterday.
This is one from Steve Earle's 2002 odds and ends release, Side Tracks. It's a stark powerful song about a prison guard on death row and the many sights he's seen in his work. A guest appearance by The Fairfield Four adds a nice dimension to this one. The sombre sounds of the track certainly fit the subject matter.
