He also produced their first album. Which I still think is the best one. I was thinking the Volume 12 information I posted above seems somewhat similar to the No Direction Home soundtrack.

He also played at the Monterey Pop Festival.

Have you ever read his book? I don't think I have. He was a guy who was in the right place at the right time.

I got the new issue in the mail today. It seems quite different from the old magazine. And it is odd to read through a magazine without ads. There is an interview in the new issue with Jay Farrar. I was surprised or maybe not surprised to see he dregs up some story from the past about Jeff again.

I have not ran across anything official - but this is circulating around:

Yes, I read it again every year. It's one of the best books ever written.

I have pretty much given up on this guy - but I will admit I am curious about this:

Some more dates:

I wouldn't worry about a list - there is no such thing as worst anyhow. Get all of them - and then get all the Jayhawks, Old 97s, Ryan Adams, and then the best, Blue Mountain cds. And then you will be all good.

I was about to get rid of Netflix. And then I remembered the new episodes of Longmire started yesterday.

I think there is also a documentary about him coming to Netflix soon.

I think he is sort of the Donald Trump of rock and roll.

I wonder what's wrong with him. It must be the flu or something like that.

I think Mac Sabbath is currently my favorite metal band.

I have a tapestry of the Number of The Beast cover that a friend of mine made for me back in high school. That didn't go over well with the parents back then.

I happened to be in Walmart earlier and noticed they had it for 18 bucks.

That was the last album I bought also. I am not a fan of the sound Kevin Shirley goes for - but at least they are still making new music.

I don't think I have either. Maybe those guys will do an AMA someday.

The website Iink I clicked on the film did not work. You can look at the Facebook page without signing up for Facebook. I learned about by way of Mountain Bed's Facebook page.

There is a facebook page. I think it is called I Just Want You to Understand Me: The Story of Jay Bennett. Reddit is a funky place.

I think Jay Bennet would have been great at doing an AMA. I thought about asking if any current member of Wilco was interviewed for the Jay film - but I decided that might have been rude.

I don't really care for that album - but the song Southern Accents is great. It's sort of interesting to check out the songs on the Playback box set that were meant for that album. I think Tom recently apologized for using the Confederate flag on that tour - in the midst of all that Confederate flag stuff going on a while back.

I won't get to hear it until tomorrow probably - so I don't know how the sound is compared to the other releases. I just noticed they have also re-named the first album. It is now called The First Step. These discs definitely sound different than the old cds and even the previous boxset. I'd say there is more clarity in the instruments and in the mid-range of sound. Or something like that.
