Free Music Notes for Happy Woman Blues
Free Music Review: Great early album
Hit: 4 Stars
This little-known early album showcases a much more country, much more raw Lucinda Williams. It is not as great as her follow up self-titled album or Car Wheels on a Gravel Road, but it is very good in its own right and has some great songs, particularly the title track, Lafayette and the original, faster version of I Think I Lost It, which she re-recorded on Car Wheels.
Happy Woman Blues Poster
All too often dismissed as an immature work that was quickly eclipsed by her self-titled breakthrough on Rough Trade, Williams's second and final album for Folkways reveals much about her current lyrical sensibility and vocal approach. Most singer-songwriters, in fact, would give their Martins for songs as good as "Lafayette" and "Maria." That she reprises "I Lost It" on Car Wheels on a Gravel Road and continues to explore this album's themes--the value of native ground and the endurance of loss--is enough evidence that, while not as overwhelming as the work to come, Happy Woman Blues should not be overlooked by fans of this vital artist. --Roy KastenHappy Woman Blues is the first recording to establish Lucinda as a songwriter of note. Lucinda's country and blues roots are evident throughout these compositions, and are off-set by her fresh, contemporary treatment. Liner notes by renowned critic John Morthland offer a passionate glimpse into the mind and career of this truly original artist.
