In 1998, Lucinda Williams was still a legend: elusive, slow recording, non prolific, beautiful, and a well of amazing music. After Car Wheels, she became more public and more prolific...and her product has never been the same. But there will always be Car Wheels. A simply stunning album of ridiculously great songs and performances, Williams became one of the best things about alt country. Every track is worthy of praise, and each one is loaded with hooks and emotion.
The guest list is impressive as well: Steve Earle (who said it was the worst recording experience of his life), Emmylou Harris, Buddy Miller, and Bruce Springsteen keyboardist Roy Bittan are here. This is a must have album: one of the best of the 90's, and one of the most heartfelt records ever made. [First added to this chart: 04/13/2012]

Including "The Masterplan" is a good idea.
