Free MP3 From Justin Townes Earle

Free MP3 From Justin Townes Earle

With songs on his debut album that veer between vintage-sounding honky tonk, back porch blues and straightforward singer-songwriter smoothness, Justin Townes Earle already shows impressive range. Listen to “Hard Livin’”, from The Good Life to get a feeling for one of Justin’s many moods. The song is free via Amazon through Monday, March 31.

My test drive provided strong results. They seem to somehow have managed to eliminate many of the questionable results that some mp3 search engines provide while still providing deep enough results.
