Lucinda Williams - Blessed
She’s the daughter of famed poet Miller Williams, so it’s no surprise Lucinda Williams has a way with words. In 1999, her Car Wheels on a Gravel Road won a Grammy in 1999 and Time named her America’s best songwriter a few years later. But Williams is also a singer of rare sensuality. Her latest album—the first since wedding record executive Tom Overby—showcases her gift for literate lyrics with a sultry mix of rock, blues and country songs. As a bonus, Elvis Costello provides spirited guitars on “Seeing Black.”
