Crossing my fingers that there are copies left in about 2-3 weeks...

I streamed the thing last week and decided it would hold up to repeat listens. I was kind of surprised there were still copies.

How much did you pay? If you don't mind me asking...

Folks, Bull Black Nova is just a beast of a song live. Definitely one of the lone bright spots on an otherwise forgettable an album.

I think it was around 80 on wilco's website

There is some very cool insight from Tweedy on each song in the liner notes. Its a really nice package with some real gems. And oh yeah, the vinyl sounds great...

Crossroads in Kansas City in July. Yes please!

The use of Hate it Here in the movie Boyhood was just perfect.

Decent movie. Excellent soundtrack.

i don't know why, but i'm still very excited about the prospect of a new wilco album

because you really enjoyed the last album and recognized what an improvement it was over sky blue sky and wilco the album?

also, hate it here is easily my least favorite wilco song

it was an improvement over those two, but i wouldn't say it was a return to the heights of being there/summerteeth/YHF/AGIB. i don't think anyone would say that.

It was fine.

I also wasn't thrilled about Tweedy's recent solo effort.

They are playing at Red Rocks this summer which I would historically be all over. This time not so much. I dont know why.

If this band released a new album after collaborating with Jim O'Rourke, I'd be a very happy fan again. But alas, it won't happen.

well, i'm starting to enjoy some U2 songs, so i think i'm now disqualified from making any judgments from the vantage point of a music snob.

lol

I've never been able to get into Wilco. I have their self-titled album and it was ok. Everyone seems to love them, but it's never really clicked for me.

let's be real here, there's a difference in liking some u2 songs (i do too) and calling sbs wilco's best album
