Brilliant. Saw them in Kalamazoo.

Lots of good all-around music that emerged from the central Illinois Prairie in the 1990s: Uncle Tupelo, Hum, Poster Children, Menthol, Titanic Love Affair, Bottle Rockets. Makes me proud to be an Illinois native.

I loved the original line-up for Son Volt. Unfortunately, Jay Farrar's ego got in the way(either his ego, or the bottle). Son Volt's first three albums are fantastic; especially the album "Trace", which I personally put at the same level as Uncle Tupelo. I was never able to get into Wilco. I think it was a whole "John Lennon/Paul McCartney thing". When the Beatles broke up, their fans chose sides. If you liked John, you didn't go for Paul - that type of thing. I guess I chose "John", LOL!

Makes me think of listening to this song on a bootleg tape in 8th grade! Love it! I wish they could have stayed together.

The crazy thing is that apart from about 2 inches of extra hair and the absence of a button up shirt, Jay looks exactly the same as he does now! lol

jesus, i saw them in 92 maybe and it is still the best show i've ever been to. not likely, but even if they just wanted to cash in, i would give my last dollar to see it again.

tafka92

the difference in the latter years would be that jay would knock down jeff's mic if it was falling like that....haha. I miss this shit. so good.

what is Farrar playing here? is it a rickenbacker 450?

misterrosewater

I know that the arguments and debates often focus on Tweedy vs Farrar, Son Volt vs Wilco, but I think Mike Heidorn should get as much if not sometimes a little more credit than Jeff or Jay. His drumming was somewhat unorthodox yet lyrical and so often drove the melody as much as the guitar or bass. Plus he was a powerhouse. The first incarnation of Son Volt with Mike on drums is far stronger than Jay's new studio cats. A true reunion needs to be these three, not just the Jay and Jeff show.
