Summary: In celebration of Women's History Month our Women Making Music series continues with words and music from Alt. Country singer-songwriter Lucinda Williams.
I liked this little peek into the personality of one of my favorite artists.
The profile is short, but thats ok. Like a little slice of cake this sound bite is tasty and leaves me wanting even more.
I disagree with the previous review that this is too short. Of course I'd love to hear more from Lucinda, and more longer pieces on the radio, in general. But since there are many three minute slots out there, these are good three minutes to fill them with.
I've never heard her Lucinda Williams speak, and it's nice, though not suprising, that her speaking voice is just like her singing voice. In this piece she says some interesting things about songwriting, and about putting her albums together. There's a lot of information and tons of music in these 172 seconds. Play this piece this month, or any month. Or if you host a music show, put this piece in right before you play one of her songs.
too short, not enough time to have any meaning.
a hook only with no meat. This is public radio if you can't have a segment 5 or 10 minutes long why bother. This is like a commercial segment on regular radio.
And I like Lucinda.
