Wilco reviews in PEOPLE and TIME magazines


Recommended Posts

discovered this as I was catching some rays by the pool. Good reviews.

 

Here's the TIME review, I couldn't find People's:

 

Wilco Gets Happy

"I should warn you when I'm not well," sings Jeff Tweedy midway through Sky Blue Sky, the sixth studio album by Wilco, the protean band Tweedy has fronted for a decade. Over the years, Tweedy's brooding lyrics--fueled by battles with anxiety and addiction--have often overshadowed the spare beauty of his songwriting. But Sky Blue Sky is bright and affecting, mixing doses of '70s soul on tracks like Side with Seeds and Hate It Here with the sun-drenched guitar rock of Impossibly Germany and What Light, on which Tweedy advises, "It's alright to be frightened." Die-hard Tweedyites might howl at such signs of Wilco's mellowing. But mellow still sounds pretty good to the rest of us.
