180 Gram LP


25th anniversary reissue of Lucinda Williams' classic 1988 self-titled album

Remastered from the original analog tapes

Pressed on 180-gram translucent red vinyl, gatefold jacket

Includes album download plus a 1989 live concert and other bonus tracks, plus new liner notes

Lucinda Williams, the acclaimed self-titled 1988 album from the three-time Grammy Award winning singer/songwriter, returns in a special 25th Anniversary reissue with bonus features via her new independent label in conjunction with Thirty Tigers.

Often referred to as "The Rough Trade" album (the U.K. label that originally released it), Lucinda Williams has been out of print for 10 years. The new package includes a remastered version from the original master recordings, which had been missing for more than 20 years. The package features a bonus disc containing an unreleased 1989 live concert recorded in Eindhoven, Netherlands and six previously released live bonus tracks. The expanded booklet includes never before seen photos and two new sets of liner notes: One written by Rough Trade A&R man Robin Hurley and a second set written by respected US music writer Chris Morris.

Lucinda Williams was the Williams' second album of original songs and has become a personal favorite of so many over the years. Major artists have gone on to cover tracks from Lucinda Williams. The Grammy Award-winning "Passionate Kisses" (1994 Country Song Of The Year) was a big hit for Mary Chapin Carpenter in 1993, in 1983 Emmylou Harris recorded "Crescent City" and in 1996 Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers recorded "Changed The Locks."

Looking back, it's clear that Lucinda Williams would be a precursor to a career filled with critically-acclaimed, award-winning albums, including Sweet Old World (1992), Car Wheels On A Gravel Road (1998), Essence (2001). World Without Tears (2003) and Blessed (2011). There is much more to come, as a new Lucinda Williams studio album is planned for release in mid-2014.

Good album; good pressing

My experience was different than the other reviewer. My copy arrived unwarped. Sound quality was quite good, with almost no noise. Certainly is an above average vinyl pressing compared to other records that I own.

A great album with the sound quality perks that one wants when listening to vinyl rather than digital.


Great Music & Poor Vinyl Quality

I've purchased this record twice. Both times the record was warped. Can't trust this label for a third try. Music is a 5 but the pressing is a 2.
