its a great record! he gets better each album. his singing, precision and depth! he has made so many albums but I like each one more than the last. thanks for sharing Jim's perspective and humor with us!
I Met Jim Lauderdale at a show with Emmylou Harris in the 90's, I asked who he was listening to & did he have any recommendations, He said Check out Lucinda Williams & I wrote it down & picked up a CD, That was good advice!
Thank you both for this interview. ‘Lucinda Williams - Austin City Limits 1998 - Full Performance’ with Lucinda Williams (vocals, guitar), Kenny Vaughan (guitar, backing vocals), John Jackson (guitar), Richard "Hombre" Price (bass), Randy Leago (Hammond B3, Accordion), Fran Breen (drums), and Jim Lauderdale (acoustic guitar, backing vocals) is worth finding and listening. It is one of my favorite recording and performance work. Lucinda Williams is a favorite song writer. ☮💚
"Vince" that owns Sputnik Sound is actually Vance Powell, and the "Comparison is the killer of joy" quote is such a "Vance-ism" that I could hear him saying it in Jim's delivery.
So many writers dry up over time but not Lucinda. She’s certainly special. I have all her albums, for an audio buff like myself I find sound quality is right up there. 🙏
Lucinda Williams' music floats in and out of my world on a fairly regular basis. Love "Car Wheels" ... she's such a powerhouse. Thank you for the interview Be good to you 🙏🏻🤍
saw lucinda and jim many times. lucindas band was always awesome. really like doug p guitar playing, good feel. Lucinda’s lyrics are inspiring. i had my daughter on my shoulders ( when she was little) during a lucinda show at fingerlakes grassroots fest. (a great summer memory.. ) so many songwriters influenced by lucinda…and thats good, because her taste is so great. ❤
My introduction to Lu was the '93 Victoria Williams tribute record, Sweet Relief. I then saw her at Bumbershoot in Seattle in '95, three years prior to Car Wheels and a couple after Sweet Old World. She had John Jackson on guitar after he left Bob Dylan's band. She was playing some songs off of Car Wheels in '95. I definitely remember hearing Joy. She's such a damn treasure. I recently had the pleasure of seeing her in a barn in Iowa called Codfish Hollow. You literally had to drive Car Wheels on a Gravel Road to get to this barn in the middle of nowhere. Despite her not being able to play guitar anymore due to the stroke, she sung as strong as ever. Truely one of America's greatest artists.

I was delighted to meet Jim a few weeks ago at the Romp festival in Owensboro KY. Didn’t want to take up much of his time, just expressed how much I used to enjoy Music City Roots
Coincidentally, just saw him up in NY at the Finger Lakes Grassroots Festival. After his set with Donna the Buffalo, I got a chance to say hello. I also mentioned how I had recently saw an old video of Lu’s performance on Austin City Limits in which he sang backup. What a band!
I played Raji’s! Lots of times..Lucinda was suspiciously absent from any of the bills “the Issue” was on. Dusty is friend and even though his studio was called Maddog he is the coolest cat to ever rock a 3 string bass
i am so beind on my Otis....the cat i was caring for with a team for a woman as my income ust left earth and ymy best friend soul brother king stanely is ailing....guess ill have plenty of brother Otis for ketchup peas luff stuffnthings respect SJOCR

I am of the opinion that AWESOME ain't a big enough word. That lady has pipes for days ! Awesome !😏🤣👍👍👍
That album is one of the best albums of that decade. Maybe any decade.
Saw Jim and Lu on the Car Wheels tour at the Ritz in Raleigh, NC. Kenny Vaughn on guitar, such a fabulous evening!!
I always look forward to your interviews, Otis... thank you for doing what you do!

One of my local public radio stations has been playing cuts from his Jim's new album, it's all good!

I could listen to Jim sing and/or talk for days.
Followed Lu since her early days "passionate kisses " days. One of my favorite songwriters of all time.

Jim is an absolute statesman among songwriters; his humility belies his greatness.

Awesome interview, thanks for sharing! ❤❤❤❤❤
Love ya Jim!
Love Lue & have followed Jims career since his beginnings, AWESOME
I remember Raji's very well. Lucinda there woulda been fantastic.
Fabulous.
The Palomino Club...those were the days! I cant believe it gone...
I found Lucinda on a Starbucks compilation CD, I think it was called Mile Marker 97, it had a lot of great stuff on it.
I played Raji’s! Lots of times..Lucinda was suspiciously absent from any of the bills “the Issue” was on. Dusty is friend and even though his studio was called Maddog he is the coolest cat to ever rock a 3 string bass
🎼🤟♥️♥️♥️🤟🎼
Love Jim Lauderdale. Lucinda ranks way up there with Bob Dylan, in my estimation.
? dylan Hmmmmm
Donald Lindley played with Joe Ely also.. He was the best 🥁
i am so beind on my Otis....the cat i was caring for with a team for a woman as my income ust left earth and ymy best friend soul brother king stanely is ailing....guess ill have plenty of brother Otis for ketchup peas luff stuffnthings respect SJOCR
East Side Indianapolis Up In This Piece!
Jim kinda looks like Bob from Twin Peaks (I mean that as a compliment)
I can see it...but I don't see it as a compliment.😆
