dbm 15: Record Store Day release


Recommended Posts

Fun release coming up next month. I'm scratching my head on what we know/don't know about the tracks on the listing. Is there an explainer out there somewhere?

This is an interesting compilation, I wonder if they'll do more? Exciting to see some unknown stuff is on it. A Jeff Tweedy Christmas song??!

The previously released stuff is interesting too as we haven't had a successor to Alpha Mike Foxtrot but there has been a number of b-sides for both Wilco and Jeff in the past 11 years, so it's nice to see things being compiled, even if there's some stuff missing. A lot of these things might have passed some people by. But there's a lot else that could be there....

 

Presenting TCP's Most Wanted for dbpm16 :
Wilco's Dig A Pony cover
I'd Rather Be Alone (the other b-side from Love is the King)
Half Life (Ode to Joy b-side)
I Can't (Ode to Joy b-side)
One More Hour (Sleater-Kinney cover from Dig Me Out tribute)
All In It Together (Mavis Staples If All I Was Was Black outtake/b-side)
C'Mon America (Jeff's Sub Pop singles club 7")
UR-60 Unsent (Jeff's Sub Pop singles club 7")
Whisper (Jeff's song from Good Music To Avert The Collapse Of American Democracy)
Drawing From Memory (Charlie) (Warm/Warmer bonus track)
Bell Minor (Jeff's song from For The Birds: The Birdsong Project)

 

 

EDIT:

Oh and the version of Spiders from the Uncut magazine Noisy Ghosts compilation which is one of the best Spiders IMHO.

These are good suggestions! Totally forgot that Cold Water got released on the Parks and Recreation record a few years ago, I remember Jeff doing it on The Tweedy Show in 2020ish when it was "a work in progress".

I remember Jeff and Spencer doing Cold Water as a "work in progress" as well! That song always reminds me of early pandemic for that reason. Good track. "Pissing on the shopping carts outside of Jewel" is a gem of a Jeff Chicago lyric.
