Lucinda Williams - Happy Woman Blues (New Vinyl LP)

Description Happy Woman Blues - Lucinda Williams, whose musical style defies easy categorization, recorded her first album of original songs in 1980, supported by a six-member band. Her songs are a mix of traditional and alternative country, folk, and blues that reflect her Louisiana roots. The Village Voice music critic Robert Christgau gave Happy Woman Blues an "A-" and described Williams as a "guileless throwback to the days of the acoustic blues mamas" who "means what she says and says what she means." The vinyl reissue of Happy Woman Blues, which includes a liner notes booklet with the song lyrics, is part of the Smithsonian Folkways Vinyl Reissue Series, revisiting some of the most iconic and influential albums in our collection. - Side 1 - 1 Lafayette 2 I Lost It 3 Maria 4 Happy Woman Blues 5 King of Hearts - Side 2 - 1 Rolling Along 2 One Night Stand 3 Howlin' at Midnight 4 Hard Road 5 Louisiana Man 6 Sharp Cutting Wings (Song to a Poet)
