| | Amazon.com: The Mountain: Music: Steve Earle,The Del McCoury Band (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | Earle was inspired by a chance meeting with the late bluegrass pioneer Bill Monroe, and this is his self-declared stab at musical immortality. |
 | | The Graveyard Shift and Harlan Man are rollicking, good ol' boy tributes to the hard working man, while the title track, The Mountain, is a mournful song of a man's undying love of his home ground though its beauty has been ravaged by industry. |
 | | That said, for me The Mountain peaks with "I'm Still In Love with You," a duet with Iris DeMent that sounds--like the rest of the album--that it could have been recorded 30, 40 years ago. |
