Wilco over the years.

I have been a fan of Wilco since their first album, and I stretched my fandom back to Jeff Tweedy's days in Uncle Tupelo with Jay Farrar. While I love all of the many branches of the Tupelo Tree, I think Wilco is my favorite bough. Wilco has changed a lot over the years, but I really have come to love the contributions that virtuoso guitarist Nels Cline has brought to the group. Here is Wilco in 2009- "Impossible Germany." The song has a great spot at the end where Nels solos over dueting rhythm guitars.

Two of My Favorites from Dr. Dimento!

Back in high school, I used to love to tune into Dr. Dimento late Sunday nights. I remember a lot of the songs that the good doctor used to play, but here are two of my favorites:

-You gotta love the sitar break on this one!


This parody was sung by Tim Cavanaugh- there is a better version on Youtube, but the visuals are all unrelated anime crap.
