Jay Farrar

Come on people, the line is obviously about Mother Theresa getting F'd in the A by Mutual of Omaha Wild Kingdom host Marlin Perkins.

Damn shame, heart on the ground, fall down easy, hard is the fall, walk you down, carry you down, way down watson

Clear day thunder, outside the door, shaky ground, high water, looking for a way out

Out on the road, catching on, no turning back, no rolling back, roll on, right on through.

Don't worry, I've bought 2, one for me and one for my dad, so I've got ya covered Tweety...and yes I know how much you hate the album. I would say it's your loss, but I know you're blissfully surrounded by the glorious sounds of Tweedy's new solo album, "Jeff Tweedy Farts with the Benedictine Monks"

I got ya all beat for personal photos:

Someday we'll find out the real story on that Mexico trip. The world's too big to have them two bungalows apart with a Tupelo fan in between. I bet the wives planned it or, gasp!, they are friendly enough. Probably had the kids with them too. Jay's known Susan Miller since 1990? Jeff's known Monica...

Funny, I don't see it as negative toward Jay. I'm not all pro-Jeff (though I do like Wilco), but it's just a story, and I thought he acknowledged the awkwardness on both sides and the sad fact that nothing came from that conversation. Maybe I'm just too biased at this point to hear anything good th...

With the stripped down ACD cover, it made me think about the SV album artwork catalog. From best to worst: 1. Straightaways-took me awhile to figure out what it was (front steps). 2. Wide Swing Tremolo-most elaborate 3. Okemah and the Melody of Riot-completely out of left field 4. Trace-to me it do...

Sorry, gotta put in my 2 cents. It just shows that one guy is a class act, and the other is a total tool who shits on the friend who helped him get into the business, hits on said friend's girlfriend/eventual wife, doesn't even bother to personally ackknowledge the death of said friend's father, and...

I'm going to do it a little differently, a little more time based except for like formats (live albums, movie soundtracks), not going to include UT at all as that's when they were working together. Trace >>>> AM Straightaways = Being There WST = Summerteeth Sebastopol > YHF Terroir Blues > AGIB The ...

Have you heard the live ramped-up version of Voodoo Candle he sometimes plays with Son Volt? Holy shit. Love this. And as well the ramped up version of Life Worth Livin on the Gob tour. Let us not forget the GI. Sebastopol,TB, Gob Iron. The Trifecta. Take that Tweedy. Hell no, no way I would forget...

Have you heard the live ramped-up version of Voodoo Candle he sometimes plays with Son Volt? Holy shit.

Not sure I would leave out Jay's solo stuff, probably because I consider Sebastopol the best thing Jay has ever done, there are better songs on other albums, but the consistent quality of the songs on that album can't be beat. I would also throw in The Slaughter Rule and Chelsea Walls, as they've bo...

Got the Afterglow EP CD signed when he played at a bookstore in SF. It was a week before my wedding, I rapidly blurted out how we were going to dance to some of his songs at the wedding, after which he added the 'Best of Luck' bit when he signed. My soon-to-be-wife talked him into a pic with me & hi...

Overall, American Central Dust can be called a quietly important record. It's befitting a band whose trajectory has been unassumingly influential.
