I've listened to Sky Blue Sky quite a few times sometime ago. I can't really remember a single track from the album. I might give it another chance, but you might be right. I was addicted to Yankee Hotel Foxtrot when I came across a copy at a Goodwill one time. I thought A Ghost is Born was pretty good, which I heard prior. I need to get Summerteeth and Being There.

Sweet Goodwill find!
Get Summerteeth before Being There, if you can only get one at a time.

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.

Yeah, it's really random what you might find at Goodwill. A friend of mine found Elliott Smith's Figure 8 once. I found a ton of really great vinyl once, they had R.E.M., Springsteen, B-52's, and some other good finds.

Sounds good to me.

Can we be expecting a review of Kicking Television soon?

Definitely, working on getting Kicking Television, review in the next week.

By the way, I would love to create a "best of" or starting playlist for this band and share it with MusicBanter, but I don't know how to make a playlist and host it for everyone to download. Anyone know how to go about doing this?

Listen to the tracks and save it as a playlist on last.fm. Everyone then can stream it.

That didn't really work, since Last.fm doesn't allow you to play all the tracks, but here's a playlist I created with Playlist.com (some songs I wanted to include are missing since the website didn't have them):

Why don't you just create like a compilation and upload them onto a site like megaupload so everyone can actually download the songs?

If you don't know how to here's the PMO's Easy Peasy Guide to Uploading Your Own Compilations

Thanks manny

Here's the mix once again (this time you can download it)
