This is probably the strangest of all the sets from the Farm Aid concert. First, it's strange in that it's easily the shortest of all the sets that day. But also, it was split in two. He performed two songs, then Nathaniel Rateliff came on and played a set. Then Earle came back and played two more songs.
My strong suspicion is that this was a kind of impromptu bonus appearance. Meaning he was attending the concert and decided to just get up on stage and play a few songs while he was there. The fact that it was a solo acoustic set is further evidence, since having a band would have meant a bunch of preparation. But anyway, some Steve Earle is better than no Steve Earle.
I decided to take the two short sets he did and merge them into one. That's why there's an "[Edit]" in the title of "The Rain Came Down." Near the end of the song, between saying "thank you" twice, he mentioned that Nathaniel Rateliff was going to come on for a set and then he'd come back. I used the MVSEP audio editing program to edit those comments out, since they don't fit when these songs are presented together.
As mentioned above, this album is 16 minutes long.
