Fewer are the opportunities to hear oneself in the music, to follow the threads that tie the listener to it.

As we continue to make our way into the Twenty-first Century, things have only gotten worse for lawbreakers. Some lines even overlap, in ways that many would clean up and fix (variations of “debts no honest man could pay” appear in both “Atlantic City” and “Johnny 99,” and “deliver me from nowhere” rings out from “State Trooper” and “Open All Night”).

If Burke definitively proves one point over the course of the book, it’s that “Nebraska,” like the works of John Steinbeck, Flannery O’Connor, Martin Scorsese, Woody Guthrie, etc. You can find anything online these days and Losin’ Kind and Child Bride have since become favourites of mine as well as striped down version of Pink Cadillac and Downbound Train.
