Wilco

(1/5) > >>

Thrillho:
So, I've liked a few Wilco tracks for a while - I bought a Q magazine that had a live version of At Least That's What You Said on a free CD - it was amazing, and I thought wow that's pretty good...and listened to it a bit more and pretty much forgot about it.

Then this afternoon I went on a spending spree in my local CD shop and found A Ghost Is Born, the special edition no less, for a mere £5. I snapped it up and brought it home and...

...it's pretty weird, innit? Mostly in a good way. I love how the second to last track is a quarter of an hour and then the last one is about two minutes long.

Crazy British country...

Yguazeesh what?!

EDIT: And for something more constructive, I've never really got into Wilco.  I'm not that big a fan of Jeff Tweedy's voice.  I adore Uncle Tupelo, however.

Some of Wilco sounds a little bit alt-countryish, and it's not often that genre comes out of Britain.

At least I think they're British?

edit: Hell I even found the CD labelled 'Country/Americana.'

Stifled Dreams:
They're from Chicago :)

(So I suppose you're right, that type of music doesn't often come out of Britain...)

EDIT: Also for more constructive, I love Wilco. A lot. I don't know why, but a lot of Wilco songs just make me pretty happy. Or pretty sad. They make me more emotional, anyways. I'd really like to see them live some day.

Really? Shows what I know.

They're SLIGHTLY less weird than I thought then.

Boy is my face red ;-)
