"Crowfoot stood and watched as the white man spread many one dollar bills on the ground. “This is what the white man trades with; this is his buffalo robe. Just as you trade skins, we trade with these pieces of paper.” When the white chief had laid all his money on the ground and shown how much he would give if the Indians would sign a treaty, Crowfoot took a handful of clay, made a ball out of it and put it on the fire. It did not crack. Then he said to the white man, Now put your money on the fire and see if it will last as long as the clay. The white man said, No….my money will burn because it is made of paper. With an amused gleam in his eyes the old chief said, Oh, your money is not as good as our land, is it? The wind will blow it away; the fire will burn it; water will rot it. But nothing will destroy our land. You don’t make a very good trade. Then with a smile, Crowfoot picked up a handful of sand from the river bank, handed it to the white man and said, You count the grains of sand in that while I count the money you give for the land. The white man said, I would not live long enough to count this, but you can count the money in a few minutes. Very well, said the wise Crowfoot, our land is more valuable than your money. It will last forever. It will not perish as long as the sun shines and the water flows, and through all the years it will give life to men and animals, and therefore we cannot sell the land. It was put there by the Great Spirit and we cannot sell it because it does not really belong to us. You can count your money and burn it with a nod of a buffalo’s head, but only the Great Spirit can count the grains of sand and the blades of grass on these plains. As a present we will give you anything you can take with you, but we cannot give you the land.” Chief Crowfoot : Blackfoot Confederacy

This is fantastic. I love Lucinda's music. In the mid 1990's I first heard her on an early morning college station's folk music show. A few years ago when I had Sirius/XM in my car, I would hear her on the Outlaw Country station. She's Awesome. I'm so glad this ACL video is on YT.

Just saw Lucinda last night (9/20/24) and tho she looks pretty different, my God is this girl talented..still as powerful and soulful as ever, if not more so given her recent health challenges. The fact she isn't a mega-star is beyond comprehension. As her friend Uncle Neil sang, "long my she run..."

Years ago I was listening to an interview with Jimmy Carter, and they asked him who his favorite musical artists were, and he immediately started talking about Lucinda Williams! I had to pick my jaw up off the floor. Jimmy talked about knowing Lucinda's dad, I got the impression her father is a writer? I wish I could find that interview. It was on Public Radio over 20 years ago. Jimmy was mostly talking about Habitat For Humanity, but he really lit up when he talked about Lucinda's wonderful music.

[@Phreestyle1]

Her dad was a poetry professor at a university (Louisiana I think).

[@LazyIRanch]

@@Phreestyle1 That sounds right. I'm pretty sure it was a "Fresh Air" interview with Terry Gross. She's the best interviewer, she makes copious notes and digs deep.

[@Phreestyle1]

@@LazyIRanch I saw her in an interview when she visited here in Australia back in 2008. She talked about her childhood and her dad. She also said she was born with spina bifida and had a lonely childhood as a result. The best part of 2020 IMO was the release of three new Lucinda Williams albums. Her Southern Soul album is now one of my favourite albums of all time.

Spotify decided that I should listen to Car Wheels on a Gravel Road. It instantly stuck in my head for days. I’ve been listening to a lot of Lucinda lately, and I keep coming back to this performance. Why does it work so well? Fantastic players - yes. The inspiration Lucinda leads with her lyrics and melodies, of course. But this is a BAND. A band that plays together and respects each other. Drums and bass lay the foundation. Different instruments/players get the space they need to speak out, then they fit right back into the overall sound. Everything contributing to just the right feel and emotion. Then there are those giant, liquid grey eyes. They draw me in and I want to get closer. But, just like her poetry, they also scare me more than a little. What would they see if they focused on me?

I've heard the biggest bands inside of the biggest stadiums. I've heard them in arenas and coliseums, bowls, ampatheaters, and opera houses. I do this all across the country.... I pay heed and I am grateful to be experiencing this magic.. That being said... When the festivals end and the tours wrap up.... I retreat to the dingy bars of Northeast Pa.. Some less dingy but I like em anyway because they have music. Open mics, local bands, maybe just a guy and a guitar. In these places I see diamonds. Diamonds that could ignite the electricity of 80,000 people if only given the chance.... I tip my hat to the songs and voices that I shall never hear. To the missed magic.

Love Lucinda! Have this concert on DVD. Every song gets more and more intense as the concert goes on until it just explodes with "Joy!" ❤❤

this is the show Marty Stuart saw on TV and had to have Kenny Vaughn in his band

[@stevenfought2192]

Is that true? I have been a Lucinda fan for several years--and also Kenny Vaughn from watching the "Marty Stuart Show." But I only learned about this collaboration a few days ago! How is that possible? How did I miss that? This is a classic video. Classic. Lu is on top of her game and Kenny Vaught might be the best backup guitarist ever.

@@stevenfought2192 yes I heard Marty tell the story. He was watching ACL and couldn’t take his eyes off Kenny who was killing it. Kenny became part of Marty’s band soon after

Genius at so many levels, captured beautifully.
