Lucinda Williams Instagram – On this week’s “One by Willie,” and the finale episode of season 5, beloved singer-songwriter Lucinda Williams opens with a poet’s examination of one of Willie’s most cherished songs, “Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground,” before going on to describe her formative years in Austin, watching and listening to Willie.
@lucinda_williams talks about her first stint in 1974, as a campus-drag busker floored by his relaxed way with a song. She describes the wild milieu at the Willie Hilton in the early eighties. And then we watch a video together of her and Willie on a Los Angeles stage in 2004, duetting on a song Lucinda had written, “Overtime.”
“Oh my God!” she marvels, as the song fades out and the audience roars. “It just doesn’t get any better than that.” Listen to the episode at the link in our bio, or wherever you get your podcasts. 🎙️
