Classic Cover: Lucinda Williams – “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” (original by The Beatles)

Three-time Grammy Award winning artist Lucinda Williams has announced the December 6th release of Lucinda Williams Sings The Beatles From Abbey Road. Recorded at The Beatles legendary studio in London, the new collection serves as Vol. 7 of her celebrated Lu’s Jukebox series and is the first new volume in almost four years.

Lucinda Williams Sings The Beatles From Abbey Road features 12 Beatles songs that include classic hits such as “Can’t Buy Me Love”, “With A Little Help From My Friends” and “Something”. Williams and her band also take on beloved deeper tracks such as “I’m So Tired”, “I’ve Got A Feeling and “Yer Blues”. Being raised on the blues in the South, the latter is a song Williams was clearly meant to sing.

The album is an inspirational example of an artist who, at 71 years old and following a stroke in 2020, continues to write, perform and find new ways to fuel her creative fire that continues to burn as brightly as ever.
