this is a great album. admitedly, I had very little Wilco in my music vocabulary to begin with. i had heard a few songs here and there and had a few songs in compilation cd's, but i kind of knew I would like them. I was not dissapointed. Kind of a greatful dead sounding folk / roots sound. I got the copy with the dvd. the dvd is cool with the interviews and live performances in the band's studio. kind of get the feel of hanging out with them. *****
