Basically what you said.

I hate stuff like this! In the Wilco Book there are several sets of lyrics in the back, "Old Maid", "The High Heat", "My Words", "White Cat, New Life", and "Obituary". We've never heard the last two to my knowledge, and have never heard a full studio version of "My Words". AND I WANT THEM DAMMIT! Maybe we can get a boxed set eventually.

You've gotta be kidding me! I was just about to post this thread! I've had the dvd for several years and was dragging my feet about getting the audio. Decided the other day to finally try and get it and got the same message. Does anyone have the hookup for us?

I picked Wilco (The Album). Neither is Summerteeth to me, but I felt let down by SBS. Still enjoying W(TA) though.

Simple enough question; which do you prefer? SBS or W(TA)?

meh. To me, SBS is like a 7.0, and this is definitely a far stronger album than SBS.

"Miraculously, the disparate strains within the group's catalog have somehow flowed together into a unifying aesthetic, largely due to Jeff Tweedy's distinctive singing voice and remarkable consistency as a songwriter." This is basically what I've been saying for a long time. The Wilco sound is all based around Tweedy's voice and melodic style. Other than that, there really isn't one. I'm kind of disappointed with the score, but I knew it wasn't going to do that well.

http://www.metacritic.com/music/artists/wilco/wilcothealbum Wilco is averaging roughly what SBS was on metacritic; a little early to tell. I was hoping for a higher score :-(.

Country Disappeared > Solitaire > I'll Fight. All fantastic songs.

Wilco the album will sell between 95-120k copies.

I want to get this signed by all members of the band, then stick a marker in the camel's mouth and let it scribble some lines on the cover.

The question explains it all. On some level, I appreciate a great dvd. If well shot, well produced and interesting visually, it can add another layer to the music. But it also adds another layer of possible failure. You can have a great performance with a really boring visual. I have this trouble on some level with a lot of Unplugged/ acoustic shows. Even when the music's great, it's just a bunch of dudes hunched over acoustic guitars; not really that exciting to watch. My eyes just tire of watching something faster than my ears tire of hearing something. I've only seen my favorite movie

Haven't listened all the way through in a while. "Bull Black Nova" and "Country Has Disappeared" have been getting some single rotations on some of my playlists.

See we just don't agree on anything. "Country Disappeared" to me is a great song. Hearing that reminds me of the first time I heard "I Shall Be Released" by The Band or "Helpless" by CSN&Y. Really classic, genuinely moving stuff. Jeff's vocal delivery is flawless. He comes across as a Mid-Western version of John Lennon circa 1970. It's a really beautiul transcendental moment to me. "You Are My Face" on the other hand reminds me of the bad side of 1970s A.M. rock radio. It starts off as a sort of lite rock staple, something safe and soft enough for Seals and Croft to sing, and then tran

I don't see the song as pro-war at all. Maybe I'm taking the lyrics too literally but to me "I'll Fight" is a comment on class differences. A well to do man pays off a poor man to take his place in the army; this has happened a lot through out history. The poor man dies, and the rich man lives. It's really a pretty poignant comment on the fairness of our wars. For the most part it's not the blood of the rich that is spilling; they will grow up to have grandchildren, and die happy. The people fighting our wars are those who can't afford to do anything else, and all they get for it, as I'll

I suddenly feel so much less embarassed about owning all of his comic books. Truly brilliant words.

I was watching this the other day, and thinking about how sad it is that Jay wasn't even featured in the video. Now it's even more distressing. Our love is all of God's money Everyone is a burning sun. R.I.P. Jay.

I listened to Summerteeth, then Foxtrot and some random B-sides. Tomorrow I'll probably do Being There and the MAs. This just fucking sucks.

Let's not forget his contributions to the Mermaid Avenue albums. Who knows, maybe he's jamming with Woody right now.

R.I.P. Jay.

Is this really appropriate right now!?

I Can't Keep From Talking 09. California Stars 10. Via Chicago 11. Remember The Mountain Bed 12. Jesus, Etc 13. A Magazine Called Sunset 14. Laminated Cat 15. The Family Gardener 16. Spiders (Kidsmoke) 17. The Ruling Class 18. Impossible Germany 19. Everlasting (not my top choice, but the album needs a closer)
