Description:
After releasing two traditional country blues albums in 1978 and 1980 and a more experimental and pop-oriented album in 1989, Louisiana-born singer/songwriter Lucinda Williams regrouped following the dissolution of the label to which she had been signed and released 1992's stunning SWEET OLD WORLD. While Williams' country blues roots are in evidence throughout the album, the folk and pop tendencies of its self-titled predecessor take over, making SWEET OLD WORLD a rootsy but accessible album perfect for the then-emergent Adult Album Alternative demographic. Williams' songs range from the jangling folk rock of "Six Blocks Away" to the tender, downcast "Something About What Happens When We Talk." SWEET OLD WORLD shows a newfound musical and emotional broadening that coalesces in the quiet acoustic story song "He Never Got Enough Love," a sympathetic character study of emotional damage that's neither preachy nor mawkish, and in the heartfelt title track, one of Williams' very best songs.
