Huge fan. I've seen her a number of times in concert, all in small venues before she got "big". I'm still wondering who I lent my "Car Wheels on a Gravel Road" cd to--they must of liked it cause I never got it back. I was excited to hear about a new live LP. How is the recording quality? BTW, her first LP (Self titled with Passionate Kisses) is still her best, IMHO.

An interesting new release; I went a bought it yesterday when Lost Records notified me of its release. It’s been advertised in “Tracks” magazine for six months with no release date, so I was excited to see it finally came out. The entire disk is material from her last two releases and as Lucinda stated in “Tracks” it documents where she is now. I played both disks when I got it home but was not in my listening room so I’m not sure of it’s recording quality. For what I heard it sounded good.
I too have seen her a number of times in a 300 person venue and was surprised to hear how depressed Lucinda sounded. She usually is “up” during her concerts, but these Fillmore nights are very sad and slow. Having said that, I loved this disk. Lucinda has a wonderful ability to express her emotions with her writing and her voice. Her new disk is beyond that, Lucinda is hurting, maybe drugged and I wanted to reach out and help her. For Lucinda, that is a complement.
I do worry however, being a huge fan of Lucinda that she may be deeply troubled. When Kurt Cobain (sp?) was in the same place, he made his best music, but….
Lucinda may need our love folks, lets hear it for her!
I for one will be seeing her at the Minnesota Zoo amphitheater in Aug!
