Right on @tomic601
maybe I wasn’t clear though. I absolutely love uncle Tupelo. Their first record is one of my all time favorites. (and Jay’s Son Volt stuff is just very very good). I just laugh though when people think what has been labeled alt country started in the 90s...
which reminds me of something: the uncle Tupelo fork: A question that really bugs me. Why does anyone even like Wilco? That guy was basically Jay’s sidekick/backup singer. Jay is really quite a humble genius but Wilco seems like nothing but self promoted derivative unlistenable to me. I don’t get it.
