Car Wheels on a Gravel Road album Product Description

Car Wheels on a Gravel Road album by Lucinda Williams was released Jun 30, 1998 on the Mercury label. All tracks have been digitally mastered using HDCD technology. CAR WHEELS ON A GRAVEL ROAD won the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Folk Album. "Can't Let Go" was nominated for the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance. Williams's fans waited a long six years for this album, as Lucinda went through music business hassles and a revolving door of producers. The reward for their patience is an album full of rootsy, heartfelt observations that alternately rock and mourn. CAR WHEELS is full of songs about loss and longing, like "Metal Firecracker," "Drunken Angel" and "I Lost It," but even when she's bemoaning her own lack of happiness on the bluesy "Joy," she lets loose with so much passion that it seems inevitable she'll find her emotional center again. Produced largely by Steve Earle, CAR WHEELS is immersed in that late-'90s alt-country sound, full of slide guitar, accordion, dobro and other Americana touches. It's a tribute to Williams's unique artistic vision that she distinguishes herself from the No Depression crowd by virtue of her idiosyncratic songwriting. ...See Full Description

What would Hank think?
Hank looking down and probably asking himself,''Is this country music?'' Well it may not have been in past eras,but for whatever musical classification Lucinda's music is given, this album is a sheer joy.She has written some GREAT songs, sung in her FANTASTIC country style.If they are two reasons why you purchase music,do yourself a favour,buy this CD and enjoy.

Great Songs, Great Guitars
To me these songs sound like what would happen if Mick & Keith got together with Neil Young and wrote some country styled music. The guitars are a big part of the songs and they have a great guitar tone. This music is somewhere between rock, country, and the blues.
