Lu’s Jukebox
Any Lucinda Williams fans out there? She’s currently working with the Mandolin.com website to produce a series of 6 performances. The first - a tribute to Tom Petty - aired last night. I had a virtual meeting I had to attend so I’m just getting to see/hear it now and it’s truly fantastic. That coming from someone who would not normally consider myself a big Petty fan (I had no beef with him either).
Five more shows to go. The next one is on Thursday in 2 weeks and so on ( more or less). I think the next one is southern soul. Later shows include a Dylan night, a Xmas show, 60s country hits and New Year’s Eve is the Stones.
Several different packages are available - I went all in and got all 6 shows + digital downloads + vinyl of all shows. What can I say, I’m a huge Lucinda fan and this is a unique opportunity to get a glimpse into her sole while hearing some great tunes played by a fantastic band. Full disclosure - the shows are not live but are pre-recorded.
Just Google Lu’s Jukebox if you’re interested.

@feldmen4 , maybe in '99? I went to see Tom Petty in June of '99 simply because I wanted to see Lucinda who was opening for him. That would have been back in the Carwheels era, and she wasn't getting a whole lot of love from the the small amount of audience who were seated for the opener, so I went the extra mile. It was a large outdoor ampitheater, but I popped for some great close up seats from a scalper, so I was right up front, and Lucinda and her band knew there was at least one out there who appreciated her. As far as Lu's Jukebox, I think the only one I didn't buy was the Tom Petty (Full Mon Fever?) cover CD (and I still have not got around to listening to Bob's Back Pages). I am not obsessed (like I used to be) with the sound of her voice, but I really did enjoy her covers of Ode To Billy Joe and The Games People Play. BTW, I definitely agree with you about the CJ covers of Sweet Jane (might be the best cover ever imo) and on To Live Is To Fly, I love the way Margo delivers that one slightly altered line, "I'm as soft as glass, and you're a gentleman. . . ." Good choices.
