God bless this angel of blues and writer of all our pain in song love her so much and years of her own demons from being so deep and giving her soul out like a open book , like NEIL YOUNG, Tom Petty , Bob Dylan , Haze Folly and Towns Van Zandt. Story tellers that give away part of them selves in each song. My heart goes out for these folks that can write down our feeling s we all have at one time or another and make us feel we are not alone in this world , even if our families don't understand us , these writers are able to sooth us with a lulaby to our souls.......Love you Lucinda for giving us a part of you , knowing it may be a sacrifice for giving these songs to us.......
Nice to see Doug Pettibone playing with Lucinda again. That Pedal Steel Guitar he is playing was given to him by Lloyd Maines, an unheralded music great.
im 65 I have close to 5000 lps, I take a lot of pride in my diversity in what I listen to and collect in my LP collection. I have been in music since I was a child. Just recently discovered Lu. I have no idea know how she ever flew under my radar. The last three years of my life have been hard on me. Trust me I will spare y'all the details life can be hard on us all. But when I discovered Lu it was are you alright. And I now own almost everything on lp that she has recorded and some of her lps are kinda pricey. But she has helped me get the hardest time of my life. and i can only thank her for what she has from. All the people below leaving the words that they are saying must have no idea what the has gone through. She could be at home enjoying her retirement, but she still performing for us. I will see her at the Orange Peel in Asheville in May. God Bless you Lu, you will always sound perfect to me
Hey Michael I have to respond to you because you and I are the same age it was way back in 1988 that I fell in love with her music,,,,, the song was Passionate Kisses I have tried to stay with her new stuff the last 15 years,,,,,,,, and of course it is great but what she meant to me from 1988 to 2003 was nothing short of life saving on a million occasions she has helped us both along with countless others
I am about the same age as you and I can relate to what you are saying, life can certainly change in a blink of an eye, for good or bad. I too had never really listened to her for some reason. She sounds much differently than I had expected. I hope your doing better. Hang you there, take care
Sorry, that's not Waddy. It is Stuart Mathis. He's played with her for years. If you want to see Waddy, who is amazing, see Stevie Nicks live. Been her band director forever. Also playing with "The Immediate Family" a virtual who's who of musicians. More than worth the cost of the ticket.
Could've held on to that long smooth neck. .Let your hand remember every fret.. Fingers touching each shiny string.. But you let go of everything...... Some kind of savior singing the blues A derelict in your duct tape shoes Your orphan clothes and your long dark hair Looking like you didn't care....mmhhmmm (Who is Lord Byron or Ezra Pound :-) ;.)) That's what we love her for
she prefers to perform severely affected by her stroke. Having seen her numerous times this is sad but admirable. She can no longer play guitar. This song always reminded me of Neil Young.
Nah - it's live, and poorly recorded. And when I say "live", there's no backing tracks, ridiculous light shows, and videos everywhere. Just working musicians doing what they love. If you can't dig it, well, try again in a couple years.
@@MaterLacrymarum sorry, english is not my native tongue, and probably "lacking" was not a correct word to describe my vision about this video, my mistake. Thank God theres no backing tracks or light shows. She doesn't need all that. God bless L.
Wow, she is definitely losing it. Phrasing very off kilter. I don't know if that is due to drugs, medication or just age. But it sure is sad to see. For a good 40 years she wrote and sang some great songs that will go on and be sung by others I'm sure.
@@wonderfulprincesschelsea Since I recently learned that she had a stroke, this perhaps could be considered a triumph. But even before the stroke her phrasing started deteriorating. My wife and I recently cheered her brother when he first was able to walk with a walker after having a stroke. But that doesn't mean it isn't sad that he will still spend the rest of his life in an assisted living facility. Sadness is a normal part of life. It is sad that Lucinda, who is responsible for so many wonderful songs - some of which tug at our deepest emotions, is losing her voice. It is completely OK to think she is still her old self - but you should be OK with dissenting opinions.
@@DiegoCperdido you sound jealous. People wouldn't come to her shows if she couldn't sing. You do realize she had a stroke a couple years ago. The audio is terrible in these clips, im sure the mix sounds better at the back of the hall.
Lucinda may be a fine songwriter but she can’t sing. I find her very tedious to listen to for more than one tune and I’ve tried getting through a whole CD without success.
