And if you can just indulge me a bit more, this is still one of my favourite duet songs, and as a UK teenager into New Wave at the time had some effect on starting my journey to Americana and beyond. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vV1bjfgr4U

I know you can all search YouTube of your own accord, but just had to add this too. If only they could have operated as one entity at the time instead of all the enforced switching between Nick, Dave Edmunds & Rockpile.

EDIT - SORRY, JUST SEEN THE OLDER THREAD FROM LAST WEEK This is fantastic - many many great facts e.g. late for his own wedding because of a bet on a boxing match Used to like Carlene back in the day.

Little isn't the word - that goes on and on. Nie one - thanks. Raccoonista "And generally, once we have the title, we don't need any other words because the Raccoonists have a very strict "No words" policy. It only allows for titles and maybe slogans here and there."

Blimey, they're everywhere. Is there no refuge from this media blitz? http://www.billboard...005373072.story

Seems like more than usual to me - maybe the band mamber themselves are more inclined to give their time for soundbites etc. given that they're totally working for themselves with their own label now. Meanwhile ... Drowned In Sound 7 / 10 http://drownedinsound.com/releases/16532/reviews/4143654

http://arts.nationalpost.com/2011/09/26/parsing-the-‘entity-that-is-wilco’/ "Can I have a sip? … Oh, that’s incredible. That’s flavour! That’s flavour!” Sansone, standing up, reminds him, “We got a strict sound check.” The band’s publicist pipes up: “I don’t want Jeff on my ass!” Says Sansone: “No one does.” Amen to that.

Saw a piece on JT in The Times this morning. It was the communal office copy and I was going to bring it home to scan, but left without it! I don't have a subscription to The Times online. Because I thought I was going to get it later I only quickly looked over it. There may have been a separate review of the Whole Love but I did not look for it at the time. Things I learnt:- 1) JT has an exercise bike in his hotel room these days. 2) Wilco are going to be involved in O'Bama's re-election in some shape or form. 3) I am rather forgetful. 4) errr, that's it.

Excellent! Really enjoying Nick right now. He did a very good BBC special in concert about 2 or 3 years ago that's worth searching for on YouTube etc.

Glad a good time was had by all. What with the time difference I did not actually get to hear it after giving the heads up. Still, 2 nights in London to look forward too. Especially would have liked to hear NL too. I think this new release has trully reinvigorated the band and the set lists. Can't wait for next month.

The Independent (sunday edition) has a second bite at the cherry. This time I think the last line might be spot on ... http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/reviews/album-wilco-the-whole-love-dbpm-records-2360807.html

According to Blurt http://blurt-online.com/news/view/5496/ "NPR Music is the host, and you can tune in to the concert being aired direct from Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, MD, near D.C., staring around 7pm ET. That's when opener Nick Lowe is slated to perform, followed by Wilco around 8:20."

The Independent http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/reviews/album-wilco-the-whole-love-dbpmanti-2359183.html The last line is a bit bonkers ...

It all felt good knowing that George was involved with the project. The timing for me was exactly the same as when I was buying all the Beatles albums, and at that teenage age when whole conversations would quote Monty Python sketches. And speaking of Beatles parodies, this has it's moments. There are a few more bits on YouTube - a weekly segment a while back on Paul Whitehouses latest effort.

Indeed. As a big Emmylou fan it's a similar thing with the Gram/Emmylou story getting mentioned perennially 40 years on.

Bloody marvellous. If that was packaged up as a DVD I'd buy it.
