Before I knew who Lucinda Williams was, there was Mary Chapin Carpenter's version of Lu's "Passionate Kisses":
The Reet, Keith, Sharie and I were at Town Hall in NYC for this version. She pulls this 'wrong key' shit alot. It's charming the first time, annoying after that.

We saw David Byrne, Jim Lauderdale, David Johasson. Great night!:
