Lucinda Williams
The first big concert I went to was Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers. I’d asked for tickets for my birthday, and my parents got us floor seats, something like row 6 or 8, center stage. Tom was fantastic, obviously. The opener was Lucinda Williams, touring Car Wheels. I was passingly familiar because my dad sometimes played the album in the car. I sadly don’t remember a lot about her set, because I was more anxiously awaiting Tom Petty; I do remember that Mike Campbell came out and played a song or 2 with her. Years later, as an adult, I rediscovered this album and began to fully appreciate & understand it. Growing up in Mississippi, I can appreciate a lot of aspects of this album; I often tell people that the title track sounds like my childhood (I literally lived on a gravel road). Suffice it to say, this album is a masterpiece & will always be near & dear to my heart. If you’ll excuse me now, I’m gonna go to West Memphis & look for my joy.
