R&L Williams

Robin and Linda Williams

Back 40

Red House Records

Robin and Linda Williams have made many fine albums over their long, storied career and were mainstays of A Prairie Home Companion.  Back 40 is their latest, and continues their great career.

Their music and lyrics reflect old-time country, bluegrass, and folk whether they’re covering artists like Joni Mitchell and early Bob Dylan, reinterpreting traditional songs, or introducing their new song “The Old Familiar House on Christmas Day.”  Tales of love, hardship, good times, bad times all fit in, and are wonderful to hear.  They and their band mates are expert musicians and make this album a must have.  If you’ve never heard them, this is the album to start with, and if you have, celebrate their latest. https://www.facebook.com/finegroup
