Hi Jim,I've only listened to it once. Over all I like it, especially sides 3 & 4--some of Jeff Tweedy's best work. I wish there was a little less distortion on some of the songs on sides 1 & 2. Nels Cline is a great guitarist, but he gets a little carried away at times IMO. Sky Blue Sky and Wilco (The Album) are my favorite Wilco album's followed by A. M. I have A Ghost is born and Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, but don't like them as well.
To fund a couple of cartridge purchases I decided to sell off quite a few CD's. Before selling I ripped them to the PC Hard Drive and there they've languished ever since.There's quite a few on there that you just can't get on vinyl so it's worth a little bit of effort.
Magnum - I've followed these guys from their beginnings. Probably the band I've seen most times live.Still going and releasing albums.Personally I prefer their earlier stuff (Kingdom of Madness thru to Vigilante) after that they had a stint with an added commercial feel, but more recently back to form. Get them on your DSCOGS "Watch List"
bside an awesome live lp
Hey Laura, Glad to hear that you like the lp. I can see you point on sides 3 & 4, I agree. I also understand what you are saying about side 1 & 2, yet I guess I like the experimentation . . on track one, side 1 Art Of Almost - refreshing almost progish, which was a big surprise to me. on side 4, One Sunday Morning is masterful to me btw I started listening to Uncle Tupelo back in their 'frat house playing days' in the mid 80s and i've been tracking Wilco/Tweedy & Son Volt/Farrar ever since, sadly most of what i own is on cd, but i'm staring to pick up some vinyl cheers,Jim

Pman does the Allman Bros. album sound any different to you?? It says its some kind of high res pressing, can you hear a difference??
I would have play one after another to tell AE. I do have an early pink Capricorn pressing. One day I'll have compareI'll give you a call
