dudes,
i can't tell you how refreshing it is to see an intelligent exchange of quality new music commentary here.
i still have not heard joanna, just samples. but what i have heard is really intriguing. kind of reminds me of somewhere in there amongst victoria williams, rickie lee jones, with a little maria mckee and rufus wainwright thrown in.
her reviews are mostly stellar. looking forward to it.
and yes, i agree - the new Wilco was disappointing to me at first as well.
but now, after several weeks it has grown on me like a fine moldy hunk of cheese from some small town in south eastern France.
i love it, and i'd go so far as to say it's as strong as many of our favorite 1970's albums. i have been a Wilco fan since day one. can't say this one is my favorite, but something about it makes me love it like an old classic Eagles album.
