I agree with you about Sky Blue Sky. I wouldn't say I don't like it, but it's nowhere near their previous three. It's like they lost all that pyschedelic/electronic craziness and just went for a completely polished and tame album as you said. There are a few tracks on it that I enjoy though. The first three are each solid songs. My favorites are "Sky Blue Sky" and "Please Be Patient With Me", they're really nice laid back tunes. I just hope this album does not represent the direction Wilco is going in the future.
