mpolak21 Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 It would be interesting to do this for all of the albums, sort of an ultimate Wilco mix. Here is my list with two stipulations. 1.) To keep my brain from exploding, I have not counted the Mermaid Avenues and only count the studio Wilco albums. 2.) Being There's second disc counts as tracks 11-19. The Picks 1.) I Am Trying To Break Your Heart2.) Far Far Away 3.) A Shot In The Arm4.) Muzzle of Bees5.) Jesus, etc.6.) Ashes of American Flags7.) Pieholden Suite8.) How To Fight Loneliness 9.) Pot Kettle Black 10.) Poor Places11.) Sunken Treasure12.) Blue Eyed Soul13.) Too Far Apart14.) In a Future Age15.) Kingpin16.) Candyfloss17.) Why Would You Wanna Live?18.) The Lonely 119.) Dreamer in My Dreams Track two was the toughest for me trying to pick between You Are My Face, She's A Jar and Far Far Away was quite the challenge. As was trying to pick between Reservations and Sunken Treasure at track 11. I was thrilled to legitimately get two A.M. songs on the mix, and though the last three Being There songs didn't have any competition , I think they're great additions. There you have it. --Mike.

anthony Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Oh man, I did it and then looked closely. I didn't pick anything from SBS. I was just being honest. Oh, crap. Me too. Sorry Jeff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mpolak21 Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 For the hell of it: I decided to just take my favorite 12 songs from these albums and mold a playlist (who needs rules anyway). Here's what I came up with. 1.) At Least That's What You Said2.) You Are My Face3.) Hummingbird4.) Handshake Drugs5.) I Am Trying To Break Your Heart6.) War On War7.) Jesus, etc.8.) Ashes of American Flags9.) Muzzle of Bees10.) Pot Kettle Black11.) Poor Places12.) Reservations --Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Late Greats SBS would've had two if not for having to choose between Spiders and Impossible Germany. War on War and Theologians are my two favs overall on this list. Good thread idea.

mountain bed Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 My picks: 1) IATTBYH2) Hell Is Chrome3) Radio Cure4) War On War5) Jesus, Etc.6) Ashes7) Wishful Thinking8) Hate It Here9) PKB10) Poor Places11) Reservations12) Late Greats Wow - it's too obvious what my priorities are....but then again YHF towers over the other two records imo. A much tougher choice would be a YHF/ST/BT challenge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
