mirrorball61 Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Dig A Pony and Don't Let Me Down now on Amazon Music. (I assume these are new - Wilco sent out an email today) Maybe a new cover at the Orpheum tonight? Unfortunately, after Wilco Saturday, Phish Sunday, and Wilco Monday, I'm taking tonight off (all three shows originally scheduled for 2019). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lost highway Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Pretty solid, which is not surprising. Stripped down Beatles performances is pretty well within Wilco's wheelhouse. I thought the overall energy of "Dig a Pony" was fantastic. A faithful rendition, but still could feel Jeff and the gang in the Loft vibes. "Don't Let Me Down" I liked a little less. Like a B instead of an A. I think I'm so attached to Lennon's ragged performance that Jeff's lighter touch seemed to take some of the urgency out of it. The lap steel was a nice touch.

TCP Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 I thought both were good! Too bad these are stuck on Amazon Music. Maybe they'll get a 7" pressing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gepman Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 I have Amazon Prime, but not Music... I didn't even see a way to pay to download them... Am I missing something? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chez Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Saw them cover the Beatles' "Tomorrow Never Knows" with Robyn Hitchcock at the Chicago Theater a few months before the world shut down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I only have Prime but it still let me stream the songs, not sure if downloading is an option though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maxspr1 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 I was definitely able to purchase both songs from Amazon. The problem is I can't remember precisely what I did in the middle step, but basically, here's how I did it: I signed up for the Amazon Music service, then selected each of the songs and added them to a list or liked them or something like that--that's the part I can't remember. Then when I went to my playlist with just those two songs and played them, there was a little three-dot button thingy next to each song. When that three-dot button was selected, it gave me the option to purchase each one. Once that was done and the songs had downloaded to my computer, I cancelled the service. The songs are still on my computer and on my phone and playable. Again, I can't remember exactly what to do, but now that I've cancelled the service, I can't retrace my steps. I did all of the above on the first day the songs were released, so I'm not sure if this is all still possible but I don't see why it would have changed. My advice would be sign up, play around with each song and maybe what to do will become clear. Sorry I can't be more help, but mostly I just wanted to let you all know that you can definitely purchase these if you dig around enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
A Radio Cure Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 I was able to download the songs, but it was a bit overly complicated. I could purchase the songs here and here and even though there was immediately an option to download purchased music it didn't work. I went to my digital orders page on amazon and there was an option to download and that worked. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
