The unifying thread for Lucinda Williams’ circuitous career might be her own resilience. As if to spite an industry with which she’s forever wrestled, 2014’s Down Where the Spirit Meets the Bone and the new The Ghosts of Highway 20 rank among the best works of her career.

At 63, Williams has seen enough life to know more than the brutal ache of love-gone-wrong’s agonies.
