Lucinda Williams, whose musical style defies easy categorization, recorded her first album of original songs in 1980, supported by a six-member band. Her songs are a mix of traditional and alternative country, folk, and blues that reflect her Louisiana roots. The Village Voice music critic Robert Christgau gave Happy Woman Blues an “A-” and described Williams as a “guileless throwback to the days of the acoustic blues mamas” who “means what she says and says what she means.”
