The Album Steve Earle Never Wanted to Make: A Tribute to His Son
Less than two months after Justin Townes Earle’s death from an accidental overdose, his father entered Electric Lady Studios to record an LP’s worth of his songs.
Recording the album “wasn’t cathartic as much as it was therapeutic,” Steve Earle said. “I made the record because I needed to.”Credit.Meghan Marin for The New York Times

On the evening of Aug. 20, Steve Earle spoke to his son Justin Townes Earle for the last time.
In a phone call initiated by Justin, they caught up on family business and Steve, the country-rock singer-songwriter, who struggled with addiction for years, told his son a lauded musician in his own right that he would support him if he was ready to begin his own recovery.
