Review of Women Making Music: Lucinda WilliamsI disagree with the previous review that this is too short. Of course I'd love to hear more from Lucinda, and more longer pieces on the radio, in general. But since there are many three minute slots out there, these are good three minutes to fill them with.

Review of Women Making Music: Lucinda Williams
I liked this little peek into the personality of one of my favorite artists.
The profile is short, but thats ok. Like a little slice of cake this sound bite is tasty and leaves me wanting even more.
