Oct 16, 2014This is my favorite Lucinda album since World Without Tears. I don't know how she managed to make a double album where every song stands on its own. Even the one or two songs I did not appreciate on first listen, I have quickly grown to love. Down Where the Spirit Meets the Bone has been on repeat in my car since it came out a few weeks ago and I don't plan on changing CDs any time soon.

Oct 1, 2014Lucinda never ceases to amaze us! This album is rattling superb. Magnific. Flawless. It's been quite a while since she made such an emotional record. Her voice tells us exactly what to feel at every single line. I also praise the band. They did an amazing job at supporting the feeling of each song. Album of the year. Hands down.

Sep 30, 2014Sublime, epic, beautiful, her heart is exploding with a million emotions that make this her greatest record yet. I have had it for two weeks as a reviewer, and now I am speaking as a fan. There will not be many if any better records this year. And a double? Utterly epic, what an achievement!!!!!

Classic Rock MagazineDec 16, 2014Throughout, Williams walks the line between tough and tender, just as she cleverly negotiates the path dividing heartland American music and the alternative, counter cultural variety. [Dec 2014, p.106]

MojoNov 7, 2014The result is one of her most wide-ranging and satisfying collections. [Nov 2014, p.93]

Nov 7, 2014She continues to prove herself anyway, again and again: here throughout twenty songs, and throughout thirty-five years and beyond.
