And I think I’m on four tracks of the next Lucinda Williams record.

OWH: You’re singing with her?

EC: No, playing lead and rhythm guitar.

OWH: You are making this up, aren’t you?
EC: I am most certainly not, Mrs. Husband.

I was asked to sing a harmony on a song that Lucinda contributed for this show about biting people but there was very little I could add to her performance, so I sang a very discreet line of harmony.

My consolation was Lucinda and her husband Tom invited me down to play on a session at Capitol Studios. We cut one song live with Lu in the booth and they must have liked what I did, because they kept putting up reels of tape.

By the end of the night, I think I must have played on half the record.
