an observation I have made about Lucinda Williams.
Lucinda Williams is the female species answer to Johnny Cash. Everthing I see in him I see in her over on that other side. Same spirit, mojo - if you know what I'm talking about, you'll understand and maybe you can explain it better. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
That live album is incredible. It'll be on my top 5 for 2005. For samples from it (for all you non-Ludinda fans... Go to the album web page here - samples of all the songs Amazing woman. RB |

Re: an observation I have made about Lucinda Williams.
She really is something else and, of course, if one only listens to commercial radio they will never hear her. She opened for Petty back in '99 and I couldn't get there in time for her set. Bummer. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

And after two albums, Kathleen Edwards is getting ready to take over the mantle afterwards, IMHO -
This new album of hers has at least two songs I could put in the "best lyrics ever" category. RB |

Re: an observation I have made about Lucinda Williams.
good post. I love Lucinda. I've seen her 3x live and yes, the live album is an "instant classic". And on recordings where she has Bo groovin' on the slide, that ain't hurtin' either.

Re: an observation I have made about Lucinda Williams.
BTW -
about 2002, she's recording Essence here in Mpls- Ryan Adams comes thru on tour to a dive bar called the Turf Club and my friend Jer goes to see him too. He saw Lucinda there taking in the show...it rocked, LOL - don't know how he kept himself from becoming fan boy. RB |

Re: an observation I have made about Lucinda Williams.
Now that is a celeb sighting I envy. Saw ryan myself in small dive few years ago, but that was still whiskeytown. He hardly spoke to audience then, Cary did all the chatter.
