元:Lucinda Williams in the O.C.

I walked into a coffeeshop today and "Get Right" by iTunes: Lucinda Williams was playing over the PA. She played this past weekend in the real O.C.

I had the good fortune of seeing Lucinda Williams play live at the Edmonton Folk Music Festival in 1988 or so. I had never heard of her, and was completely blown away. I'm a fan.

You don't need to be a country fan to like her. She's more rootsy rock, even though her music has been covered by country artists. Here are three to get started with:

iTunes: I Just Wanted to See you so Bad (1988)
iTunes: Passionate Kisses (1988)
iTunes: Metal Firecracker (1998)

Leonard Cohen - Hallelujah Lyrics
Leonard Cohen - The Essential Leonard Cohen - Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen's Version)
Jeff Buckley's Album

Now I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew her
She tied you
To a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light
In every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though
It all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah
It's difficult to fault a TV show that features the best cover of the best Leonard Cohen song twice in one season. In this case, it's the late Jeff Buckley covering Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen.


Early Morning Riding Home from the Gym
I think the story of Jeff Buckley is an interesting one. I understand that he met and was influenced by Nusrat Ali Kahn. Myself, I am partial to the Sabri Brothers.
