Steve Earle & The Dukes – Ghosts of West Virginia
Format: CD – Vinyl
Label: New West Records
Releasedatum: 22 mei 2020

Steve Earle & The Dukes will release ‘Ghosts of West Virginia’ on May 22nd, 2020 via New West Records. The album was produced by Steve Earle and engineered by Ray Kennedy at Jimi Hendrix’s legendary Electric Lady Studios in New York City.

The 10-song set is Earle’s 20th studio album and was mixed entirely in mono, lending a sonic cohesion and punch. In recent years, Earle has experienced partial hearing loss in one ear and can no longer discern the separation that stereo is designed to produce.

The recording features his latest incarnation of his backing band The Dukes; Chris Masterson on guitar, Eleanor Whitmore on fiddle & vocals, Ricky Ray Jackson on pedal steel, guitar & dobro, Brad Pemberton on drums & percussion, and Jeff Hill on acoustic & electric bass. 

Tracks:
01. Heaven Ain’t Goin’ Nowhere
02. Union, God and Country
03. Devil Put The Coal In The Ground
04. John Henry Was A Steel Drivin’ Man
05. Time Is Never On Our Side
06. It’s About Blood
07. If I Could See Your Face Again (featuring Eleanor Whitmore)
