Picked up Schmilco and Star Wars LPs this week for $14 total. Star Wars was on sale for $9 on ebay, and I got Schmilco for $5 bc I was able to redeem my frequent customer rewards card at local store

Jay Bennett was really important. The only really great Wilco record post Bennett is AGIB.

Stirratt's bass on "Common Sense" is fantastic.

I think Wilco have exactly two great albums: "YHF" and "Ghost," one with Bennett, one without. He's a great musician and overall I like his playing better than Jorgensen's, but I don't think he's necessarily the deciding factor in the greatness of their records.

They're both good -- too middle-of-the-road for me to consider great.

I feel like I remember liking Sky Blue Sky. Is that wrong?

You just can't beat some of those more aggressive alt/country/rock songs that Tweedy could write in his sleep.

Yeah, so Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, A Ghost is Born, Sky Blue Sky and Star Wars are the only studio albums of theirs that I've heard. I've also heard their live album.
I should revisist YHF. People seem to love it. And I remember feeling like I'm supposed to love it because everyone does. But I honestly couldn't name you a single song on that record. I own it but I never listen to it.

Thank you.
Its easily digestible alt country/folk/rock with some of the middle period wilco weirdness starting to seep in.
