My American shipping mule has arrived with the Halloween goods. Got the black one because it reminds me of the vintage CBC logo.

Finally reading Tweedy's "How to Write One Song". I just love his writing so much. It's conversational in the best, non-meandering way. And often beautiful.
Even if you have no real intention of writing a song, it's just a really great, enjoyable read about the creative process. And just as enlightening if you have any other creative pursuits (writing, painting, dancing, whatever) that you wish could dive into harder. I wish he would write more books so I could read them.

I guess I'm going to be spending $135 on a Subpop single.

$10 off any order from the Wilco store with the code wewerelucky. Just got the last LP I didn’t have (Sky Blue Sky, always sold out) for under $20 shipped.

I was today years old when I realized that Passenger Side lyrics contained an homage to Neil Young.

Saw that Wilcovered was re-pressed. Anyone have either the new pressing or the RSD one who can comment on the quality? I've got the CD from the original magazine but wouldn't mind picking up the vinyl, especially as it has two extra tracks.

I have the RSD version and no problems with the quality! It's a fun record!

Most of that content, including the pictures (using my memory now of what it looks like since it's at home) is actually presented inside the gatefold jacket of the vinyl package. The RSD version anyway. I assume the repress is the same.

It was my first Wilco record and even acknowledging how people's first introductions to a band are normally their favourites, I think it's a fantastic album. Never really understood why a lot of fans didn't like it.

It has some great songs on it, especially the opening and closing tracks. Took me a while to really love the rest but now I do.
