  1. Hey Donna, great to see we share a common love for Basia Bulat! Would've seen her last month in Amsterdam and Brussels, if not for the damn pandemic..

     

    Also highly favorable: Jenny Lewis, Christine Fellows, Kathleen Edwards, Dawn Landes, Meg Baird, Phoebe Bridgers, Amy Millan, Molly Rankin (Alvvays) and Lili Trifilio (Beach Bunny).

    You are going to love the Jay Bennett documentary being completed by filmmaker Gorman Bechard, who is one of our members. It's called "Where Are You, Jay Bennett?" and is a beautiful and moving look at his life and music. It features many of those closest to Jay, including his mom and brother, and songwriting & touring partner Edward Burch.

     

    I hope this documentary and the RSD Palace vinyl reissue somehow triggers some sort of process to make Jay's last two albums more widely available. I know Kicking At The Perfumed Air got a limited CD release, but Whatever Happened, I Apologize was only available on RockProper - a website that has been taken offline long ago. Would be great to have those albums available on streaming services or Bandcamp.

    Speaking of Wilcovered, I happened to catch this cool cover of Love Is Everywhere (Beware) the other day on a KCRW session by a Dutch artist that I hadn't heard of before, Nana Adjoa. Check it out at the end of her short set, if you're so inclined...

     

     

    I must admit that I've never heard of her as well (shame on me!), but that is a pretty decent cover!

  4. Yes, I received mine a couple of weeks ago. Ordered from the Tweedy Store though, not Amazon, and delivery was within the US, so no long wait while in transit. It has been a long time since I ordered something from NZ, but recall it took a couple of weeks to get here from there.

     

    It's not really about receiving physical items from NZ though.

     

    Because of timezones, Tidal NZ is the first major streaming site to show new releases. Basically, it's a perfect guide to see what's coming to Tidal EU/US a couple of hours later :)

  5. Did anyone receive the CD set yet? I got an e-mail from Amazon DE that delivery is delayed until August 16th. So I cancelled it and placed a new order in the Wilco EU store.

     

    By the way, it's Friday July 19th in New Zealand and there's still no Warmer on Tidal NZ.

  6. A couple of months ago, various sources mentioned July 12 as the official date of release (both physical and digital).

    Would be a real letdown if there wasn’t an option for non-US residents to buy the 2CD-set without spending $40 on shipping costs..

  7. I just received an email saying the Warm/Warmer CD set I ordered has been updated, and there is a link for me to download the updated version. My CD set is still in transit so I’m not sure how this new version is different. Does anyone have more info?

     

     

    Any updates? Now I'm curious too.

  8. 1. While my stereo isn't airplay/bluetooth compatible, if you do decide to go vintage, you can always connect a device to your integrated amp via a 3.5mm cable. I have a very old NAD integrated amp, and so one of my inputs is the 3.5mm cord which I plug into my iPhone or old iPod.

    Also, you can make your old amp Airplay compatible by plugging an Airport Express into the 3.5mm port. Even the old model has an audio port, and nowadays you can easily pick one up from Craigslist or eBay for less than 50 dollars.
