Blessed Lucinda Williams SKU: ALOS18901 Barcode: 602527595917 31.00 £31.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Lost Highway Released Date: 18th April 2011 Buying Format: 2LP CD Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Williams’ 2011 Studio Set on 2LP Includes Entire Album on CD Plus a Bonus CD of the Kitchen Tapes Demos Americana Legend’s 12th Record Produced by Don Was Features Guest Appearances by Elvis Costello and Matthew Sweet Following a two-year break between albums, and the blossoming of a relationship that turned into marriage, one of the great contemporary songwriters and music makers returns with her twelfth studio set. And being that the artist we’re talking about is Lucinda Williams, the record is a doozy. Diverse and captivating, Blessed opens with the gritty kiss-off “Buttercup” then moves seamlessly into the sultry blues of “Born To Be Loved.” Williams delves into a heavier subject as she questions the motives for a suicide on the hard-driving “Seeing Black”, which features blistering guitar from Elvis Costello. The thoughtful title track slowly builds to a melodic climax as it offers an eye-opening look at what’s right in front of us, but too often unnoticed. The singer/guitarist’s knack for insights and emotive songs run throughout the 12-song set. Poignant and powerful, “Soldier’s Song” simultaneously tells a tragic story of the soldier overseas and his wife and child back home. On the gorgeous “Kiss Like Your Kiss”, Williams lays down one of the most beautiful and fragile vocals she has ever recorded. The original version of the song appeared on the True Blood: Music From The HBO Original Series – Volume 2, and was recently nominated for a Grammy Award. It’s nothing new to see Williams tug at the heartstrings and stimulate the mind on her songs, but there is a vibe throughout Blessed that is unique to this album: the sound of wisdom, wherewithal, and experience Williams has gained through her more than 30 years as an uncompromising artist. Combine that pedigree with Grammy Award-winning producer Don Was, and the results are nothing but special. Was co-produced Blessed with Eric Liljestrand and Tom Overby, who co-produced Williams’ highly-praised 2008 effort Little Honey. Lost Highway’s 2LP pressing of Blessed also includes the entire album on CD as well as a revealing bonus disc, titled The Kitchen Tapes, which presents the record’s songs in demo form as Williams recorded them, often at her kitchen table, as she’s prone to do. Complete packaging on new studio records doesn’t come any better!
