Standout track on an album

In reacquainting myself over the past 24 hours with all the Lucinda Williams albums in my possession, I find myself unable to get enough of her song "Essence" off the album of the same title. A killer song, and maybe her sexiest lyrics and vocal ever. And that’s saying something!

bdp - It's interesting to read how we prioritize music purchases.  If you can find West for audition at B&N - great.  If not, I do think it's worth that $10 gamble.

I like her cover of Cold, Cold Heart on the Hanks Williams tribute album (Timeless).  Many fine and interesting covers therein by a variety of artists.

I resisted for along time, but I've come to really like Amazon. They have everything in stock, and the free shipping is super fast. Ten bucks for an album? Such a deal! An even better deal is the basket of $5 DVD's at my Fred Meyer store. Just yesterday I found Hall Pass in there, a very funny movie.

A couple more artists I am willing to spend the extra $ on for LP versions of new albums are John Hiatt, Rodney Crowell, Emmylou Harris, Iris Dement, and anyone else I really like who makes good sounding recordings. Lucinda fits in with that group---great singers, songwriters, with backing ensembles containing high-quality musicians.

Love Lucinda's "World Without Tears". Very underrated.
