What are you listening to in 2021 and why might anyone be interested

Three of my favourite bands, Uncle Tupelo, Wilco and Son Volt. I remember buying my first Tupelo record and the shop sticker said a delicious slice of Cow Punk.

Not one I had in the collection. A different ‘80’s sounding’ Dead and a very fine recording make for an enjoyable listen.

But the sheer sound is magical.

Very nice. Lucky Ones could be Del Amitri.
Thanks for recommendation.

Also listing to that one, from Tori, right now…!!!

Agreed,just meant that playing cd of show doesn’t manage to replicate the live experience,the visuals are all important with that show.

Keep coming back to this - lovely mellow album, perfect for the weekend…

Wilco play Glasgow on a regular basis and have caught them 4/5 times, all excellent. I have seen Sonic Youth a few times, the highlight being the Dirty tour supported by Pavement.

Personally I dont consider them expensive, AAA mastering, RTI pressed, gatefold Tip On Stoughton Sleeves. A lot of love goes into these and at around £35 more than worth it.
I’d rather buy 3 TP’s for the (over) price of say a Mofi One Step or AP UHQR for example.
Enjoy
:heart:

I wonder how that sounds compared to the Japanese CD version which I received this morning.
