Hey this thread I made when I was 20 is still a thing.... the poll was on the 2008 Stanley Cup Finals, so I updated it with something more recent and topical. However I don't know how to clear votes so you might want to delete your vote and revote. I'll update it again in 2023.

NEW ALBUM?!?! And Jeff Tweedy doesn't like Star Wars? The hell?! I've never heard of someone not liking Star Wars. It's like saying you don't like sunshine, puppies, or ice cream. I mean, the prequels, sure...

Just got back, drove down from Prince George to Vancouver to see this show, so sorry if this post sucks, I'm pretty exhausted. Jenny Lewis was pretty good, though a large portion of the audience just waited in the lobby during her performance, which was weird. Wilco was great, I'm happy I haven't been paying attention enough lately to know what their setlists were like beyond opening with Star Wars. Star Wars sounded good, and every song featured three guitars (or two guitars and a lap steel) which is always my favourite version of Wilco. After that everything was a surprise. Every number was

CDs sound really good for a digital audio format invented in the early 80s. If you want quality, vinyl is the only way.

He needs to give the keys to a good producer, and just trust them completely. Someone like Jack White (a proper record that is, not a record booth) or even Jeff Tweedy would be a perfect pairing for NY. Also taking some time off and really concentrating on songwriting would probably be a good idea. He needs to relearn subtlety in his lyrics. But Blackberry Rust is right, Neil wouldn't ever do that.

No video? What is this 2002?! Listening now.

Is this the July release? If you sign up before the 15th you can get that month's record, so what I'm wondering is if it's too late for AM. Nevermind, I see this is the August record. Hmmm.....

Uhhhhhhhhh.... are you not counting Birds and Ships as a Bragg song??

1) Yankee Hotel Foxtrot 2) A Ghost Is Born 3) Being There 4) Star Wars 5) Summerteeth 6) AM 7) Sky Blue Sky 8) The Whole Love 9) Wilco The Album If you were to take all the Wilco Mermaid Avenue 1 and 2 songs and put them on one album, it'd probably be #2. But alas, we have to listen to Way Over Yonder In The Minor Key.

Rhino, I've never noticed a sound difference in colour vs no colour. And if you want black there's always the black version available. Options for different folks is never a bad thing.

What? No coloured version?! The streak of non-coloured Wilco LPs continues. Too bad, my yellow/orange Sukierae looks amazing. At least we have the Speak Into Roses 10". I will pre-order via Amazon.ca since Kung Fu is literally the worst to non-Americans.

Here's 10: Jay Bennett Nels Cline Robbie Robertson George Harrison Elliott Smith (as an acoustic guitarist, he's top notch IMHO) Nick Drake (samesies) M. Ward Jack White Jonny Greenwood Neil Young

Good call! I didn't realize that was so soon.

On my first listen, but I like it more than I liked Sky Blue Sky, Wilco The Album, or The Whole Love on first listen. At the moment I'm on Taste The Ceiling, so good. It's weird they didn't try to time the release of this up with Solid Sound.

Not exactly on point with the original post, but does anyone know of a way to obtain Roadcase 018 now? That would be the covers set from Solid Sound 2013. Watching the Every Other Summer trailer with Cut Your Hair reminded me that I never got this roadcase and now it seems to have vanished from the Wilco Store

An acoustic Wilco record could be a nice change of pace. Maybe without overdubs... the strength of this line up has always been the live performances, if they could somehow capture that in the studio maybe we could get a truly great Wilco record again?? Not to say any of the records have been bad, but I don't think we've had a great record since 2004. Honestly, the time between records was a good decision, and the Tweedy record from last year was promising, as it had Jeff's best songwriting since Ghost. I think the key might be getting a producer who can push Wilco in the right directions.

In 2003, when I was 16, I saw the My Morning Jacket open for the Foo Fighters, a few months before It Still Moves came out. I will never forget hearing the guitars of One Big Holiday for the first time.

Five songs, five bands (I cheated a bit with the Molina projects!) Songs: Ohia: Vanquisher Lioness Soul The Gray Tower John Henry Split My Heart Magnolia Electric Co: Hammer Down No Moon On The Water Shiloh I Can Not Have Seen The Light Down The Wrong Road Both Ways Bob Dylan: Visions of Johanna Tangled Up In Blue Isis Maggie's Farm The Lonesome Death Of Hattie Carroll Neil Young: Don't Be Denied For the Turnstiles Cortez the Killer Don't Let it Bring You Down Everybody Knows this is Nowhere The Band: To Kingdom Come Chest Fever The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down Up On Cripple Cree

Actually, he's done that. Twice. Also these are songs were popularized and made famous by Sinatra, so it's a "Sinatra cover album" is an apt description as Sinatra is the common denominator on all these songs. What your saying is akin to saying a band performing I Got You is covering Jeff Tweedy not Wilco. Just because Sinatra didn't write these songs, doesn't mean they aren't Sinatra songs.

I say sell them and use the money (probably 5 - 10 dollars) to start a vinyl collection. The past is the future!

Managed to snag one of the clear records when I got into work. More folk Sufjan is always a good thing.

Has anyone seen a preorder link?

Hey I got a AT LP120-USB as well, for my money, it's the best turntable available in that price range. Though I still haven't heard one of those Uturn Orbits yet. My wife Santa did good this year. Uncle Tupelo - No Depression My Morning Jacket - It Still Moves Elliott Smith - Either/Or Bob Dylan - The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan (one of those expensive "Original Master Recordings" records, I have to admit, it sounds awesome) Plus right before Christmas Jack White and the Bricks, Jack White Live at Bonnaroo, and the Neil Young boxset with Time Fades Away, On the Beach, Tonight's The Night, and Z

Yes! The best JT album since A Ghost is Born.

Susie, sending positive vibes to you and the Tweedy clan!
