content: After first listening to Car Wheels, I admit that I was ready to bring the CD back. I was not at all surprised that Williams had written hit songs for other artists but had failed torecord a hit song herself. "A songwriter without a voice" I thought. In time, however, Car Wheels on a Gravel Road (with the exception of the odious song 'Joy') grew on me and I found myself humming the songs everywhere I went. It struck me as I was driving early one evening that the way she sings her songs is the way they NEED to be sung. In the hands of other artists, her words become superficial and stale. William's voice drips with emotion and the music adds to the experience. On my list the CD began at 1 star and has progressively moved up to four. If it hits five (and I think that it may), I'll let you know.
