Tweedy Tells His Fans To Just Shut The F Up

And I'm kind of glad he did.

And he said it in such a nice way.

Probably the nicest use of the F word in a long, long time.

If You Could Record In Wilco's Loft...

...what would it sound like? How would YOU go about recording your songs?
Do you see computers as an evil in the process of making your songs real?
Or do they need to be reel (tape)?

Read Andrew Bird's thoughts on this matter as he explores Wilco's studio, filled with every gadget and guitar his heart could desire.

I Like How This Song Sounds

This song sounds good to me. When John posted his last post about hearing records and listening for sounds you want to have, I realized that I had a recording of my own that I was reasonably happy with sonically. If I can recreate the acoustic sound, the drums, and my vocal sound, I will be very happy with my own recordings. I just have to see if I can recreate it.

(I accidentally posted this post on my family blog and someone commented that it sounded like Wilco. Cool! I'm sure I hope it sounds an eighth like one of the good Wilco records).

New Wilco Song

Here's another songwriter that I really, really dig, Jeff Tweedy.
Wilco is a great band and they have a new CD coming out.

Here's Jeff live with another song (not necessarily on the new album).


Here's a new song from that album. It has a little country twang to it (as did the whole last album).
