So how's that new Wilco record?
Couldn't resist. Anyhow, I haven't heard it, but there's a formula that I
understand applies to this record, and establishes, in my mind, whether
it's any damn good. It goes like this: "Summerteeth" = ELO.

Bill just loves to disagree with me:
Hmm, for a small hypothetical, if you removed the vocal track from all
three Wilco records, and just listened to the instrumentals, you wouldn't
find each record different from the other? (What's the degree of difference

PS: For the record, I don't hate ELO nearly as much as many others around
these parts seem to; I love early (i.e. Syd Barrett-era) Pink Floyd, and
though Sgt. Pepper is my least favorite Beatles record, I can't say I hate
it either. Nonetheless, I still don't like Summerteeth.

Absolutely...they're all creeping their way into stores right about now
too. The Collectors Choice catalogue is probaboy the one you're talking
about, but I suspect lots of vendors and stores have them now. New Crazy

Anyone got any thoughts on the debut from David Hidalgo's duet project,
Houndog? I bought the record over the weekend and it must be one of the
most unusual blues records I've heard in a while, the Fat Possum stable not
