The Revolution Starts... Now (well, Tuesday)

I've been remiss in not mentioning that Steve Earle's new and highly political (surprise!) album will be released tomorrow. It's called The Revolution Starts... Now and covers quite a few topics ranging from Iraq to the FCC to Condi Rice (and her relative hotness, at least from Earle's apparently honest perspective). I think it's a better record than Jerusalem and benefits largely from being recorded only months ago. You can hear it in its entirety at CMT:

Danny Goldberg of Artemis has sent out a plea to Earle's fans to try to promote the hell out of Revolution and push it past gold. I think it took Copperhead Road, like, 7 years or something to hit that mark so I guess we'll see.

David,

Thanks for all the blogging, etc. in the name of Steve. I'm working on trying to drum up interest through blogs for Artemis Records (for Steve)..

Any ideas of places to start? We have our own blog: therevolutionstartsnow.blogspot.com and of course the one online. Any other places where you know people are talking about Steve's new record?

Thanks,

Jeff Harris
Artemis Records
