AM

Being There

ranking wilco albums is becoming more like picking a favorite child. they are all different in their own way and just as special. i refuse to comply.

Almost THREE YEARS since our last contestant?  Sheesh.   Anyways, this new record does fit in with the other releases right where @Beltmann predicted.  I sense a trend.   AM B

I especially love the feature in our “new” board that says “2 years later…” like it’s some cheap movie or tv show.   

I'm not interested in doing that, either, which is why I'm definitely putting CC at the very bottom of my list. Putting it anywhere else? The mind boggles.

You know what might be fun, though? We need a thread that cleverly satirizes the interminable sameness of those rank-your-favorite threads. Any ideas?

 

I thought for a second you might be talking about this thread, but then I noticed you used the word "cleverly".

I think you all are missing something ... there's clearly a tie for second place:

 

AM

BT (disc one) / BT (disc two)

ST

YHF

AGIB

SBS

Personally, I'd put BT disc one ahead of BT disc two, but that's just chronologically and alphabetically.

 

I'm really close to agreeing here...

Love the live stuff. Addicted to the live stuff. The live cut of the 9:30 concert in DC last October was sweet (especially the encore stuff)!

 

I like the new album. It's "cleaner" than their latest stuff. But it gets me excited as a template, a jumping-off point for what will be done for these songs live. The Side with the Seeds song is really growing on me (you have to get past the opening minute or so...). Curious to see Nels (yes?) grind out that solo on the tour...
