Magnetized Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Looks like the new album with Mavis has been announced for release immediately following Solid Sound. And One True Vine will now get a proper release! WFUV Public RadioLike This Page · 2 hours ago This just in: Mavis and Tweedy are back! The winning combo that nabbed a Grammy a couple years ago for "You Are Not Alone", are re-teaming for a new album: "One True Vine" coming on 6/25. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shakespeare In The Alley Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 i always kinda hoped wilco would do something with one true vine, but this is cool as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nalafej Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 i always kinda hoped wilco would do something with one true vine, but this is cool as well They recorded it and released it. What else are you looking for? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shakespeare In The Alley Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 im aware, yes theyve also been known to bring back and rework songs and that one always felt more like a tweedy solo demo than a finished wilco song. i like the song quite a bit so i hoped theyd make it something even greater for a future album or something Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lost highway Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Mavis is going to kill it on that tune. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magnetized Posted April 7, 2013 Author Share Posted April 7, 2013 It's like that song was written for her. And I actually think it has had an unfinished feel, something that wasn't complete, even though its melody and words are memorable. Good bones, but not fully fleshed out. Not that Wilco couldn't still do something great with the song as well, but it seems perfect for Mavis's sensibility. By the way, I just heard on the Today show that one of the most popular new baby names in 2013 is Mavis. Huh?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Inside of Outside Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Mavis is going to kill it on that tune.Agreed. Looking forward to hearing it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rhino4evr Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Im really surprised Mavis isn't playing SS with a new album coming out named and featuring a Wilco song..produced by Tweedy. Weird. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jules Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 By the way, I just heard on the Today show that one of the most popular new baby names in 2013 is Mavis. Huh?! It's because of Jay Leno's wife. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
choo-choo-charlie Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 According to her website, Mavis is in Toronto on June 22. It's only about six or seven hours from North Adams, so I suppose it wouldn't be impossible for her to make a surprise appearance at Solid Sound. Hey! A track from the new record: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimtweedy1977 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 That's one of many songs I requested for Solid Sound. A great hidden gem. I agree that it is a song made for Mavis. At least in its initial Wilco form, I could see it being played at weddings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cold as Gasoline Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 According to Consequence of Sound, Jeff and Spencer Tweedy recorded just about every instrument on the new album. Now that should be something interesting (as if it weren't already). http://consequenceofsound.net/2013/04/mavis-staples-enlists-jeff-tweedy-for-new-album-one-true-vine/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Inside of Outside Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Here's a very cool video from Mavis, featuring Jeff and Spencer and the Loft! That is my favorite that I've heard from her work with Jeff. Something else on One True Vine might beat this out, but I'm doubting it. Love the sound of her voice over that semi-noisy sound. Mavis-edgy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lost highway Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 So much Parliament influence on this record from what I've heard (obviously a Parliament song too). But the gnarly fuzz guitar, and grindy bass over spare funky drums on "I like the things about me." Very cool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mdpoet Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Does anyone know if this will be available on vinyl? I received information about a preorder, but it only offered a cd version. Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GtrPlyr Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Wait, I mean Funkadelic. Those two get mixed up in my head. Though you're also somewhat right with Parliament, if we're talking Parliament's 1970 record "Osmium." That one is pretty much a Funkadelic record in everything but name. It's also probably the most eclectic release in the Parliament/Funkadelic oeuvre (can't think of another release of theirs that has funk, country, rock and psych all on one record.) I could picture Mavis doing this one, especially back in the day with the Staple Singers: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsP3rHs3oUI[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pCb7fUiAc0[/media] Quote Link to post Share on other sites
