Reception

All Kinds of You received positive reviews from critics. Writing for AllMusic, Thom Jurek gave the album 3.5 stars out of 5 and said Walker possessed "the self-assuredness of an artist far older than his 24 years". [1] The Line of Best Fit felt that the album "mixes and matches various oft-referenced folk-rock (and just plain folk) styles until they become if not totally fresh, then at the very least refreshing". [2]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Lucinda Williams</span> American musician, singer and songwriter

Lucinda Gayl Williams is an American singer-songwriter and a solo guitarist. She recorded her first two albums, Ramblin' on My Mind (1979) and Happy Woman Blues (1980), in a traditional country and blues style that received critical praise but little public or radio attention. In 1988, she released her third album, Lucinda Williams, to widespread critical acclaim. Regarded as "an Americana classic", the album also features "Passionate Kisses", a song later recorded by Mary Chapin Carpenter for her 1992 album Come On Come On, which garnered Williams her first Grammy Award for Best Country Song in 1994. Known for working slowly, Williams released her fourth album, Sweet Old World, four years later in 1992. Sweet Old World was met with further critical acclaim, and was voted the 11th best album of 1992 in The Village Voice's Pazz & Jop, an annual poll of prominent music critics. Robert Christgau, the poll's creator, ranked it 6th on his own year-end list, later writing that the album, as well as Lucinda Williams, were "gorgeous, flawless, brilliant".
