You, too!
I thought Greil used to love, love, love her. He must not have been able to get lucky off of that.
'Heart Of Gold'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I'm not big on Lucinda Williams either, from what I've heard. I loathe the song that was played on our "adult alternative" station from her most recent CD. Loathed it.
That being said, I've heard enough raves about the "Car Wheels on a Gravel Road" CD that I'd like to give it a listen.
It's mostly more upbeat than the recent one. Having stated my hate-on for Lucinda, I quite like her duet with Emmylou Harris, "Greenville."
I just opened Amazon and they think I should check out this album called "Double Nickels On The Dime" by the Minutemen. Hmmm, maybe they're right. While I'm doing that, perhaps I'll try this "Zen Arcade" album by Husker Du that I've heard so much about.
Give it a try, Hayden. Our band *could* be your life.
I don't know. That punk music the kids like can be so abrasive.

But look at the catchy titles!
I love Lucinda Williams' two pre-Gravel albums, the eponymous one and Sweet Old World.
Super spiff, I aver.
I love Lucinda Williams' Lucinda Williams and Sweet Old World. I don't like the later ones as much. And I certainly should have mentioned Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, although again I like the first two albums, Revival and Hell Among the Yearlings, best.
"Essence" is in permanent rotation in my most-used iTunes playlist. I adore that song.
I want to sit out back with Lucinda and drink beers while the sun sets. Car Wheels is one of my most favourites ever. Lake Charles can get set on repeat and I am a happy camper. Also, I never tire of seeing her in concert.
Others to add to that list: Nanci Griffith, Lyle Lovett, Emmylou Harris, Dwight Yoakam, Old 97s, Elvis Costello, David Bowie
