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.

On tunes like "Down That Dusty Trail" and "Billy Gray," Keen's homey voice is instantly communicative and personal; all the better to deliver his heartfelt, worldly observations. Fans of Joe Ely (whose rough timbre Keen sometimes suggests) in particular will find much to enjoy ...

Part of a long line of Texas singer-songwriters whose ranks include Joe Ely, Jimmie Dale Gilmore and buddy Lyle Lovett, Robert Earl Keen has made his name over the years as a master storyteller. For his Lost Highway Records debut, Keen maintains this reputation with an array of eclectic characters and their exploits. Among the more notable protagonists are the down-and-out lover fleeing from a busted-up relationship to the Big Easy in "Hello New Orleans" and the homeless drifter floating through the poignant "Not A Drop Of Rain." Elsewhere, Langston Hughes, Woody Guthrie, and Cesar Chavez rub elbows in the heavenly way station of "Goin' Nowhere Blues," while a lonesome ...
