It happens to every hard partier--your lifestyle eventually catches up to you. For Steve Earle, this third so-so effort from the then-roué-ish troubadour was a pretty glaring rehab-ahead warning light. The sloppiness was beginning to show: half the disc bogs down in throwaways, cheap echoes of Guitar Town and Exit 0's country-rock acumen. The rest, fortunately, is prime, focused Earle: the Vietnam-vet title track, the Wild West-themed "Snake Oil," and the oft-covered classic "The Devil's Right Hand," in which the composer achieves that perfect balance of city-slick pop and hillbilly twang. Earle would hit that one-two combo again, but not until he shook that party monkey a few albums later. --Tom Lanham

5 out of 5 stars One of the best for the road.......2006-10-21

I have some favorites to cruise by. This is one of the best - find a curvy back road, turn up Copperhead Road and let the 6 cylinders of a BMW take you away. A sure mix of Bob Dylan and Bryan Adams with a steady beat.
What a feeling upon return. Thanks Steve!!

This has to be one the best Country Rock records ever made! A must buy!

5 out of 5 stars The Best Album From A Righteous Rocker.......2005-12-16

COPPERHEAD ROAD is the best album ever by Steve Earle, blending influences from such artists as Johnny Cash, the Charlie Daniels Band, Waylon Jennings, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Willie Nelson, the Marshall Tucker Band, Tompall Glaser, the Outlaws, Billy Joe Shaver, Creedence Clearwater Revival, the Band, and the Allman Brothers Band circa BROTHERS AND SISTERS with a touch of alternative attitude, creating the best country-rock sound this side of the 70s Southern Rock boom. The songs on side one are a loose suite based on the experiences of Vietnam veterans during and after the war, with several lines in the title track being so cautionary about the dangers of going where you shouldn't be that they inspire me to look at pictures of pretty actresses as a deterrent against hanging out on the wrong side of the city where I currently live (Kingston, NY). Earle's belief that the young Australian tourist jailed in Indonesia on drug-smuggling charges was unjustly convicted makes this an essential purchase for both your ears AND your conscience.

Great CD with a touch of rock and country. I purchased the CD for the song Copperhead Road but I love every one of the songs!

Coming from Texas it always surprises me how few people are familiar with Steve Earle, but then when I name off some of the singers who have covered his material the same people haven't heard of those singers either ;)Steve's really not much of a singer himself, but like Dylan he turns his handicap into an asset. He's certainly distinctive, and there's never a time when you don't believe in his utter conviction. "Copperhead Road" is undoubtedly the best album Earle had put out since his breakthrough "Guitar Town", although there hadn't been much. Perhaps a readthrough of "Hardcore Troubadour", Steve's biography, will give the proper background to what drives the man's lyrics. It's worth reading even if you've heard Earle's music and already decided you didn't like it. Suffice to say he's lived through some rough (largely self-inflicted) episodes in his day, and what emerges is an unflinching, yet soulful, look at the human condition. Album opener "Copperhead Road" is a brilliant example of this, an outlaw ditty of the old school which compares the old moonshining days to the current meth lab and pot farm battles, even insinuating along the way that the narrator (who is picking up where his daddy's moonshine business left off) learned everything he knows about drugs while fighting in Vietnam. Heady stuff. There are two other major songs in Earle's repertoire which come from this album: "The Devil's Right Hand" was originally penned back in the 70s and is a cautionary tale about violence: "it gets you into trouble but it can't get you out". Nonetheless, this isn't Sunday School preaching here; Earle realizes the allure of the old outlaw ways as well as the penalties, and his playing both sides of the argument that makes the tale much more convincing than it would have been if he were merely sermonizing. The third song I mentioned is "Johnny Come Lately", a returned soldier ditty done up Irish jig style with the Pogues playing back up band. The rest of the album is solid if insubstantial. Many of Earle's love songs come across as fairly lightweight and middle of the road compared to his more topical work, but to his band's credit (and the producer's, of course) everything on here sounds great, at least if your idea of the way country music should sound is more Waylon Jennings than Rascall Flats.
