Product Description
Wilco's first studio album in three years, Sky Blue Sky, has been perhaps the
most ardently awaited release of '07. Eager fans had taken to shouting out
pleas for information to bandleader Jeff Tweedy during his recent solo
acoustic tour, and the web chatter has been virtually deafening. Critic Katie
Toms of London's the Observer addressed fan speculation in an advance review,
declaring, with unalloyed delight: Boy, was it worth the wait.... Simple and
soothing, yet rich and rewarding, this is an album you unknowingly yearn for,
like a cool hand on a hot forehead. a great album from a band in their prime
Sky Blue Sky is as eloquently straightforward as Wilco's last studio
recording, the Grammy-winning a Ghost Is Born, was daringly experimental.
Tweedy's lyrics deal forthrightly with romantic separation and reconciliation,
their bittersweet quality giving way, as the album progresses, to a more
uplifting, redemptive mood. Tweedy quite literally banishes the darkness on
the penultimate track, the inspiring, gospel-tinged What Light the album's
first single and concludes with a deeply affecting, 'til-death-do-us-part
lullaby, on and on and On. There are hints of early-seventies Southern
California folk-rock sweetness in the harmonies throughout the band-produced
Sky Blue Sky, a bluesy Allman Brothers feel to the guitar /keyboard interplay,
and plenty of brash guitar solos that take songs like You Are My Face and
Shake It Off in thrilling, unexpected directions. This is especially good news
for the crowds that will fill the Bonnaroo Festival in Manchester, Tennessee,
this June, where the band plays the first U.S. date of its 2007 world tour in
support of Sky Blue Sky. Principal songwriter Tweedy cut these tracks in the
band's Chicago studio with members John Stirratt (bass, vocals), Glenn Kotche
(drums), Mike Jorgensen (keyboards), Nels Cline (guitars) and Pat Sansone
(guitars, keyboards, vocals) all of whom are also becoming notable performers
in their own right. a Ghost Is Born co-producer Jim O'Rourke returns as music
contributor. The is the double vinyl version. It comes in 180 gram half speed
master by Stan Richter. Plating was pressing was done at R.T.I.. It also comes
with a bonus CD of the complete album.
