Centro-Matic Daytrotter Session

For what it's worth, I'm listening to the now infamous Atlanta show(at least in the land of Wilco/Son Volt message boards and drummer blogs), and it sounds fantastic.

Prefix Mag Interview with Jay Farrar

Great bassist. Love her harmonizing vocals on BTCD. Cute as all hell. I just don't think she's in the same league as Patterson or Cooley when it comes to writing or singing songs.

I hope you are wrong.

Bad form Rider.

"TVA" is awesome. Has a strong Steve Earle vibe. I also like this version of "Uncle Frank" a lot. "Give me another first take boys before my life is over. Here we go!" This collection would have had me more excited if I didn't already have most of the tracks already. Love the Tom T. Hall cover of "Mama Bake a Pie (Daddy Kill a Chicken)." I mentioned "Play It All Night Long" before. "Rebels" is really good too. Both were played live by the band for several shows. Seeing that both UT and DBT are strongly influenced by punk and country, I think your hearing is dead on. Both bands al

Their cover of "Play It All Night Long" is fucking mind-blowing. The Dylan cover is average. The rest of the disc is excellent.

Snagged that from my library a couple of summers ago. Also picked up this massive gem:

The Dan are absolutely in the conversation. Not sure I'd say they are the best. But absolutely belong in the discussion.

I was in the exact same boat as you about six months ago. The Search seemed long to me as it was. I bought the bonus material about a year and a half ago, but never really gave the songs a fair shake. They were tacked onto the end of The Search, and I didn't really pay attention to them that much. I've been on a huge Farrar/Volt kick the past six months or so, and going back and listening to them, I realized I never gave them the proper attention. I've since reordered my deluxe Search album to reflect the track sequencing of On Chant and Strum. SIDE ONE 01. The Search 02. Carnival Blues

Agreed, but Neil Young is not a "band." Also don't forget the Stills/Young Band's Long May You Run from '76.

I like all the bonus tracks with "Bicycle Hotel" being in the 'fucking amazing' category.
