    Alt-country darling Lucinda Williams opened the show, showcasing an eclectic array of songs from her forthcoming release, Little Honey, along with selections from the sweetly gritty pathos of her canon. Her rasping drawl and soul-baring performance of slow-burners like Bettye LaVette’s “Joy,” stormy cautionary tales like “Little Rock Star,” and rock outs like “Honey Bee” brought both faithful fans and new converts to their feet in appreciation of Williams’ raw intensity.

    Decent review, except makes it sound like she didn’t write “Joy,” which she did. I hate it when reporters undermine an artist in this way.
