The Inside of Outside Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I still think Close Encounters of the Third Kind was the better sci-fi movie of 1977. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

uncool2pillow Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Star Wars has probably deepened my appreciate for AGIB. They seem to be closely related. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jbray Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 That is because AGIB is one of the greatest albums of the last decade. It's a grower for sure and it's pretty magical. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
d. boony Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 AGIB is definitely my Wilco gold standard. I absolutely love Nels' guitar work but sometimes I miss hearing Jeff lead some of the AGIB material. I enjoyed Star Wars from the first listen and it has only grown on my since.

howdjadoo Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 AGIB my Wilco diamond standard,blowing me away on 24-192(Pono) thx Neil & Co Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mus2009 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 The guitars toward the end of Where Do I Begin, once the drum fill comes in, remind me heavily of the sound on AGIB. On a side note, woke up with Random Name Generator in my head this morning & it won't leave! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
junkiesmile Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I like the flow of Star Wars more than AGIB. It may not reach the same highs but to me it's more fun to listen to all the way through. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kicking Television Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 YHF and AGIB are Wilco TOP. Almost impossible they return to this creative level. But SW is better than TWL and TWL is better than W(TA) so Wilco are in an ascendent way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ThisIsNowhere Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 YHF and AGIB are Wilco TOP. Almost impossible they return to this creative level. But SW is better than TWL and TWL is better than W(TA) so Wilco are in an ascendent way. I actually listened to WTA a few days ago and it was a lot better than I remembered it, possibly up there with Sky Blue Sky and the Whole Love. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heartbreak Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I actually listened to WTA a few days ago and it was a lot better than I remembered it, possibly up there with Sky Blue Sky and the Whole Love.That still puts it below ST, YHF, AGIB & BT...IMHO.

Robby Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 A Ghost is Born is still the gold standard for me.I think most music critics would agree as they many seem to be saying the same thing - namely that Star Wars is Wilco's best album in the last ten years.
