Description

Lucinda Williams, universally hailed as a major talent by both critics and fellow musicians, is now considered to be one of America's finest singer-songwriters. Over the course of three decades of performing and recording, Williams' sound had evolved into a seamless blend of country, blues, folk, and rock. Her first four albums 1979's Ramblin' On My Mind, 1980's Happy Woman Blues, 1988's Lucinda Williams and 1992's Sweet Old World were all hailed as major works by a major talent, but it was her fifth album, the much anticipated 1998 Mercury release Car Wheels On A Gravel Road, that served as her commercial breakthrough, establishing her as a major artist. Recorded over a period of three years, with production duties by Steve Earle and Ray Kennedy (The Twangtrust), Roy Bittan and Lucinda Williams, and mixed by Rick Rubin and Jim Scott, Car Wheels On A Gravel Road earned Lucinda Williams a Gold Album and the Grammyr Award for Best Contemporary Folk Album. DISC ONE: Features a newly remastered version of the album! Three additional songs (two previously unreleased) an alternate version of Still I Long For Your Kiss, the blues-drenched studio out-take Down The Big Road Blues, and the original unissued version of Out Of Touch, both recorded during the first Gurf Morlix produced sessions in Austin, Texas. DISC TWO: Previously unreleased full concert performance from WXPN LIVE AT THE WORLD CAF recorded July 11, 1998. Features thirteen performances drawn from the Car Wheels album, as well as riveting versions of some of her earlier-penned songs Pineola, Hot Blood and Changed The Locks. Includes guest performers Steve Earle, Emmylou Harris, Charlie Sexton and Buddy Miller. Deluxe digipak packaging features lyrics, photos and more.
