Lucinda Williams reissues critically acclaimed 1988 Rough Trade album. Out of print for 10 years and 25 years since its original release, the remastered 25th Anniversary edition LP release of Lucinda Williams' Rough Trade album is being released through her own newly-formed imprint. The album includes a limited time download card featuring the remastered Rough Trade album and the never-before released Eindhoven Live + Bonus tracks. The original album was produced by Williams along with Gurf Morlix.

The current album has been newly remastered by Gavin Lurssen at Lurssen Mastering. Pressed on 180g Translucent Red Vinyl, the LP is housed in a deluxe gatefold jacket with matte finish and spot gloss on album title. Includes exclusive, never-before-seen photos from original photo shoot. "Lucinda Williams is quite simply one of best songwriters of her generation.

This record has a special place for me and thousands more of Lucinda's fans, and I am proud to have been part of it." - Robin Hurley "Lucinda Williams took eight years to write and record her second album of original songs... She crafts each song meticulously and deftly blends country, blues, and folk to create a unique sound that cannot be pigeonholed into any particular format. Her voice contains a heartache comparable to Emmylou Harris, but she has a darker side and a toughness that allows her to live inside the blues or rock with abandon. Re-released with bonus tracks after receiving long overdue commercial acclaim for Car Wheels on a Gravel Road, Lucinda Williams is an album that has been long been recognized as a classic. It has been mined for hit songs over the years by such artists as Mary Chapin Carpenter, who turned "Passionate Kisses" into a country hit, and Tom Petty, who included "Changed the Locks" on his soundtrack album She's the One.

In addition to writing strong melodies, Williams is an amazing songwriter with a knack for writing a lyric that acknowledges the complicated nature of relationships while cutting right to the heart of the matter. Every song packs an emotional punch line and rewards the listener each time with something new. A must-own for country and blues fans who appreciate great songwriting." - allmusic.com
