Bought Wilco and Cowboy Junkies this weekend....


I bought the latest Wilco, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, and Cowboy Junkies, Lay It Down and Black Eyed Man. Ever since I started on this path of improving my sound system I have been on this quest to expand my musical taste. I had heard lots of good things about Wilco and numerous things about Cowboy Junkies.

Anyway, I put on Lay It Down and Margo Timmons, that voice, she does something to me. Next, I put on the Wilco CD. It had a Beatles meets Roger Waters meets the Beach Boys meets Lou Reed kind of thing happening. Then I put on Cowboy Junkies' Black Eyed Man and that voice, she drives me crazy.

So, I spent my weekend between Cowboy Junkies and Wilco and I think I am going to get alot more of Cowboy Junkies, but I am not sure I understand Wilco. I went online to read some reviews about Wilco and according to what I read, they are the next coming of something, but what? I think I am missing something, but they are still new to me.

I really do like Wilco's YHF however I would argue that half a dozen or so plays should be enough to decide if you like it or not.
It's not that difficult an album except maybe if you only listen to really mainstream stuff....
