@bdp24 - Yep, Buick 6 is Lucinda's opening act on her tours for the last few years. They open with a cool instrumental set that really sets the mood for the show. They are a great sounding band IMHO.
After reading your post yesterday, I listened to "Sweet Old World" and "World Without Tears" last night. "Sweet Old World" was on an original CD. I think it sounded fine, and I've always been a big fan. I can say that it is slightly thin sounding, but I wouldn't have complained. If "This Sweet Old World" is better, I'm in for a treat. I do worry that Lucinda's voice may not be what it once was. But I'll wait to hear it before passing judgement.
I took a listen to "World Without Tears" too, also on CD. It is a much better sounding CD. Very full bodied sound. And Doug Pettibone is AWESOME on guitar. Really good stuff. Yes, there are a couple of throw-aways, but the top 5 tracks on the album are very good. I love "Righteously", "Real Live Bleeding Fingers and Broken Guitar Strings", "Those Three Days", "Sweet Side" and "World Without Tears". Fine song writing and playing IMHO.
