About this album
Lucinda Williams’ Car Wheels On a Gravel Road was a long time comin’, but it arrived with a massive payoff. The not-so-prolific country music icon’s fifth marries her organic songwriting with her highest level of production to date, making songs like the dynamic, punchy title track pop with each guitar sting or cymbal crash. The tragic “Drunken Angel” is a dark roots-rock tour de force about a fellow songwriter’s death, and “Concrete and Barbed Wire” is a fiddle- and accordion-touched lover’s lament.
