| Country? hahahahahahahahahahaha
She's real good, but I wouldn't call her country by a long shot.
Go buy a George Jones album and call me in the morning.
Hi Tex
P.S. Didja like the Nick Drake cover (Which Will)?

Hahahahaha yourself! ;^) I found it in the country section so
there! Maybe Countryish? Maybe that's why I like it? Also,
I have Mel Tillis' Faded Lights on reel to reel!

| Go check out her last album's take on Howling Wolf or her first two
where she was doing Robert Johnson covers and tell me that's country.
Boy, this "new country" thing sure has me confused...I mean half of it
is refried Southern rock or some juiced-up folk rock or some Playgirl
centerfold wearing a Stetson.
"Sweet Old World" is a great album, whatever you want to call it. I
found my copy in the rock bin. Believe it or not, RCA sat on this
album for *two years* claiming it wasn't commercial enough...sheesh.
You should pick up "Lucinda Williams" as well, now that it's back in
print.
Didja know her bass player is a chiropractor who used to play with Huey
Lewis and was on the first Elvis Costello album? Whaddya think of that
Gurf Morlix?
Etc.

| If you like "Sweet Old WOrld", you'll *love* the self-titled "Lucinda
Williams."

| It is hard to classify her. I found my copy of Sweet Old World in the
Folk section.
I agree with comments about "Lucinda Williams" - great. One reviewer
made it his best release (all genres) of 1989.
If anyone knows when she'll be in the Boston area please post it here.

You just missed her, she was in town about a month ago. Played a free
concert at HMV in Harvard Square plus a show at one of the clubs,
forget which.

| She opened for Graham Parker (still haven't figgered this one out!) at
the Paradise during the early Fall, and played at Nightstage
mid-November.

| Just heard somebody covering "Passionate Kisses" on the radio last
night...any idea who this was? Female vocalist, that's all I know.

RE: .8
Hi Brian,
It was probably Mary Chapin Carpenter. I'm pretty sure that she did
the cover version of "Passionate Kisses" that I heard recently on the
radio.

it is excellent.

| 331.11 | Lucinda who ??? | SUBSYS::GODIN | | Mon Feb 22 1993 17:31 | 7 |
| It was Mary Chapin Carpenter. My "garage" band just learned it. I saw
LW on Austin City Limits (PBS CH 44) & flipped over the song, but I
couldn't remember Lucinda Williams' name. When a friend lent me the MCC
CD, I heard it & learned it in 5 minutes. Now if I can only get the
rest of my band to take the song seriously.
I guess Lucinda isn't considered "Counrty" everywhere, I browsed
through twice my weight in C&W CD's to no avail looking for her.
