Product Description
This is a real musical treasure Lucinda Williams very first appearance (of three) on Austin City Limits, recorded October 13, 1989, and one of the highlights of the 15th anniversary season. She was riding the wave of her hit song, Passionate Kisses, that buoyant paean to desire and hope that appeared on several rock critics best of lists the year before. In fact, it seemed like everybody was wild about Lucinda. What was it about her the songs, full of raw emotion? The voice exuding longing, desire, passion? All that and more. It s not like she was the new kid on the block, having released her first record in 1979 on Folkways. But her self-titled album Lucinda Williams, the year before this performance, blew the doors wide open. Maybe music fans were starving for the kind of tell-it-like-it-is honesty that Lucinda delivers in spades. As The New York Times noted, she s got her finger on her audience s pulse, a pulse that runs straight to the heart.

I taped the original '89 broadcast, but that videocassette wore out years ago.
IMO, this is the best Lucinda Williams performance anywhere on video (her ACL '98 show, also hard to find on dvd, is a very close 2nd). She's so young (!) and it's obvious the band is awed and grateful to be there (it's their 1st major recorded gig outside the usual bars and clubs). Picture and sound quality are fantastic. Thanks Austin City Limits!
The songs are as follows:
1. Big Red Sun Blues
2. Wild and Blue
3. Am I Blue
4. Crescent City (about New Orleans)
5. Nothing in Rambling (a "Memphis" Minnie Lawlers song)
6 The Night's Too Long
7. Abandoned
8. I Just Wanted to See You So Bad
9. Side of the Road
10.Price to Pay
11.Disgusted
12.Something About What Happens When WE Talk
13.Passionate Kisses
14.Changed the Locks (A True Classic)
15.Happy Woman Blues
This is a great concert by Lucinda & her band, and I highly recommend it. Thanks!!!!!!

This dvd is :
Lucinda Williams,
Live From Austin Texas,
October 13, 1989
Austin City Limits
Region 2
This concert is really brilliant !
This show captures indeed everything Lucinda does - simple folk,
gutsy blues, heart-worn country, American roots, rock and roll.
She can turn from fragile to hard as stone, from one song to the
next, but no matter what she sings, you can tell she's been
there (Terry Lichona - Producer Austin City Limits).
Buy it ! You won't regret it.
Quality of sound and vision is EXCELLENT !
