This stuff is all subjective, but I really struggle to see how someone would like Wilco (the album) more than The Whole Love.

Ladies and gentlemen, we've found one! Out of curiosity, what made you want to see Obama reelected at the time and why do you regret it now?

Sorry, off topic: Is anyone else seeing this as the most massive font on their screen?

I think he's out there to draw liberal fire away from the legit GOP candidates, he's a distraction. For a moderate swing voter (wherever he/she is) Marco Rubio and Bush are going to feel damned reasonable after some weeks of Trump ruling the spotlight with presumably intentional gaffes.

I totally geeked out a squire vint mod jazzmaster w new pickups and bridge. It was well worth it. I'm working on building a new recording studio where my detached garage once stood!

Aw you stole mine! Just got back from the theater. That was a good flick!

If we're going to throw in new ones I'm going to have to put in an early vote for "King of You" as underappreciated. It's already gotten the underhand in a few reviews and I love the crap out of the groove.

I like when he described Jeff as "professionally rumpled".

Anyone know if you can rewatch the stream somewhere? -
Yay, I'm excited for them to start doing interviews so we can learn a little more about the record. Man, at the beginning of that I was really noticing Jeff's Chicago accent. I kept waiting for him to say "Da Bears!".

Most of these reviewers have really heard it in a similar way to how I have. It's not typical that I agree so much with music writers.

Ha! Right? And isn't anti-negativity just negativity with a smile. But seriously, I'm with you. I always wondered what it would sound like if they cut lose.

Was I right or was I right? Heck yeah, nothing beats great stuff crushing negativity.

Okay. One and a half listens in and I'm psyched. I agree with many of the connections: Velvets, John Lennon, Loose Fur. I would add there are a couple strong Thin Lizzy and T Rex moments when the guitars get a lot of swagger. This is inarguably the loosest Wilco record ever. The only thing that even comes close is the ramshackle ending of "Dreamer in my Dreams". Other thoughts: I suspect Pat played a lot more guitar and a lot less keys on this than other albums. There's barely even organ sounds on any of this, and I haven't noticed any piano sounds. It's all about the weird burbly sy

I'm calling bullshit on that. They've been "self recording" and "self producing" for a while now. And "proper"... come on.

Wow. I'm about 12 hours late to the party here. I've been traveling for like 48 hours. My wife and I missed a connection in London and had to wait over night. The change of time zones, jet lag, lack of sleep, album named "Star Wars". This is like some weird freakin dream. Whoa man.... whoa. Commence listening.

Yeah, I'm not feeling the negativity, personally. Everyone is entitled to their own feelings. I was more getting pumped as the briefest mention of a new album trickled in. I seriously think it's going to be different from what anyone hopes or fears.

I love the Family Gardener too, and it's also reminded me of the same film. I figure he must have been going for that. But does Minus 5 stuff count?

Ok!
