Summary: 'So You Wannabe an Outlaw,' Earle's first album for Warner Bros. Records since 1997's 'El Corazón,' explores his country songwriting roots and features collaborations with Willie Nelson, Johnny Bush and Miranda Lambert.
"So You Wannabe an Outlaw is something plenty of Steve Earle fans have been wanting for years, a no-excuses country album that updates his breakthrough work, and it's an effort that should please his core audience while also sounding like an album Earle made entirely on his own terms".
"Here, Earle pays homage to the outlaws with a dozen fine originals, from noisy guitar rock-outs like the title track (with a guest spot from Nelson) and the bleak Fixin' to Die, to gentle loser ballads such as You Broke My Heart and This Is How it Ends".
