Dinosaur Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I know it's online off the wilco site and I grabbed it off there awhile ago but is there anywhere to buy this one? or is it pretty much just hope for the best on ebay. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Why not just snag a copy from somewhere online or get someone to copy it for you? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dinosaur Posted August 28, 2006 Author Share Posted August 28, 2006 no I have it, but I'd rather own a hard copy too. For the car and whatnot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. Heartbreak Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 yup. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot IMPORT w/ bonus EP Thanks for that link, as it provided me with a much-needed laugh for the day: the following review of YHF. Yankee Hotel Fox Crap - ZERO Stars, September 14, 2004 This is what Sting would sound like if he were born in Arkansas. Simply put, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot is awful. I should have steered clear when I started seeing comparisons to Radiohead, but I was suckered by the positive reviews. Once upon a time, alternative music, and alt-country especially, could be relied on for simple pleasures, and at some point things would start to rock. No more. Lyrics are almost unrelentingly morose, melodies are virtually non-existent, and you get the feeling that no one enjoyed making this music, nor do they want you to enjoy listening to it. We have gone from No Depression to All Depression. Jay Bennett didn't leave the band because of this music. He lapsed into a boredom-induced coma while listening to the tapes and is still asleep under a desk somewhere. I beg you... don't encourage these people. Go buy a used Bottle Rockets CD instead. Hey! I just found out that Wilco was sued for using the "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" soundbite without permission. As a result, they had to fork over a large sum of money to the owner. So, something good came out of this dreck after all - kinda like finding a quarter at the bottom of a portajon. The soundbite is from a 4CD collection called "The CONET Project." The discs consist of recordings of short wave "number stations" - mechanical voices repeating numbers to no discernible purpose. It's a great collection, and a million times more interesting than this disc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lost highway Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD_recorder This is one of the most deliciously dorky, sarcastic replies that encompasses that which is twenty first century. I am terrified and delighted by a world full of clever, on-time and sarcastic url links. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
