...Lonesome Me" features Lucinda Williams, what was that like working with her? I was beginning to record that song and I started to hear her voice come out of the speakers. I have been a fan of hers for a long, long time; she has just one of those voices that when you hear it you never forget it. It just seemed like it would work better with her, so we invited her to do the duet. She said yes and I was thrilled. I had never met her before...
...found the love I’ve been looking for,” Lucinda Williams cries out on her newest album, “Little Honey.” And it shows. In the 10 albums she has released in the past 30 years—each one powerful in its own right—her country style has incorporated blues, rock, and folk elements, but never more so than on this record.

However...
...Paris Opera Ballet School. Three years later, Rudolf Nureyev, who had taken over as the company's director, did the same, casting her out of the corps in his production of Raymonda. Now she is the darling of choreographers on the international scene: Rudi van Dantzig, William Forsythe, Lucinda Childs. Says Nureyev: ''She has extraordinary physical attributes, long legs, a long neck. She has musicality. And what is most important, she glows on stage.'' All accurate. But he adds, ''At 21, she already has nerves of steel.'' Not quite so, according to Guillem. Before a performance she suffers from...
