The young seeker of Joe Ely's REVERB is the son of "pioneers who came seeking freedom who found so much of it that they couldn't handle it." He lives in Lubbock, Texas, a town that exists in "a normal state of static chaos." It is the so-called Summer of Love and 18-year-old Earle hitchhikes the road and rides the rails with only his guitar. He is on an odyssey to find himself.
