Wilco's latest CD -Sky Blue Sky- Pretty good!
« on: May 16, 2007, 12:18:48 AM »
I'm not a die-hard Wilco fan. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot is the only CD I really enjoy from beginning to end. I ended up avoiding most of A Ghost is Born because people were sorta poo poo-ing it.

This latest CD: Sky Blue Sky is REALLY fantastic. I think what I like best about it is its the kinda music you can kick back and relax to while doing pretty much anything. The mood of the CD is also the same all the way through with a great organic acoustic sound so you'll never be jarred by a song change. I mean its not like Wilco is guilty of that anyway, YHF's songs all blended together masterfully, the effect was lost if you didn't listen to the CD from beginning to the end, but the transitions were honestly some of the best parts of the CD. Haha oh shit this is turning into a YHF appreciation thread.

ANYWAY, this is great stuff.



Buy this one too lol.

I kinda bought it on a whim, maybe it was cause I had just got paid. I always risk a little more when thats the case. It is great tho, ill probably put the cd in my SPECIAL place where the deserted island cds go.

A Ghost is Born is one of my favorite cds, I never understood the dislike.  I need to get Sky Blue Sky asap

I have a real love/hate relationship with GiB.  I really love Wilco and respect what they were trying to do with that album, but it didn't really connect with me the way I wanted/expected it to.  Totally digging on Sky Blue Sky tho.

It probably helped that I listened to wilco all at once a few years ago, and a ghost is born ended up my favorite.  I had no expectations to fulfill.

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot is the reason for my Internet moniker, and my quintessential break up album.  Not a fan of A Ghost is Born, though.

YHF is the indie rock record, GiB is the art record, SBS is the classic rock, "music" record.

After listening to SBS, I'll agree with this.

That's a pretty good analysis, actually.  Right on man.
