Wilco on Austin City Limits


I saw them on Austin City Limits recently and was really impressed with this band. They have a great sound, interesting lyrics and Nels Cline is an absolute MF on the guitar.

Anybody heard Nels new album?

The record that I have played more than any is Summerteeth with the late Jay Bennett.
Wish I gotten some of Rockyboy's 2007 action on the impending demise of Wilco!

Saw Uncle Tupelo a few times in the early 90s -- in 1990, in the nearly empty Blind Pig in Ann Arbor, which was a revelation. A truly remarkable band. I enjoyed the first Son Volt and Wilco releases (the material on both rather like their Uncle), but less so the later stuff.

I second Streetdaddy on Whiskeytown.

Others to look for in the UT genre are the (sadly defunct) Nadine (esp. "Downtown Saturday"), Slobberbone, and Two Cow Garage (The latter two often give s**t kicking shows).

Off to listen to Fleetwood Mac with Rockyboy!
