Have to say, I think that the idea that men (the poor dears) cannot understand Lucinda’s new record is ill-founded revisionism. It’s just not a very good record. The songs “Come On” and “Wrap My Head” are clumsily written crap. And the production has killed much of the emotional power of the remaining songs compared to the original live performances.

I saw Lucinda perform in Dallas recently and I thought the show was awful. She has been rightly praised in the past for the difficult art of writing good, simple songs, but the new album has too many bad, simplistic efforts and in concert she was the opposite of deft, she was leaden. If my view is mistaken because I’m a man then my wife beat me to it: she thought the show was terrible. The fact that Lucinda was playing in a hall that has really great acoustics only made it worse.
