Just listened to a podcast called the great creators with Guy Raz. He interviews Jeff Tweedy and made me want to hear what Uncle Tupelo was all about. Amazing that I'd never really heard their music. Better late than never.
Wow i dont care how old your comment i gotta say you're absofkinlutely right.Ive felt so connected that i kinda thought I'll fit perfectly in the band and im still feeling the same way after all these years. Its not just a cliche some music really does transcends generations and UT definitely has
I haven’t heard it yet. Someone compared this song to a song I love deeply. I’m going to press play after this comment and I’ll come back and tell you how I feel. I hope you’re right. Edit: Got an important phone call before I could hit play. Will be back.
The funny thing is, the Uncle Tupelo guys were about 20 when they started and mid 20s when they broke up, but had insanely mature songwriting. Jeff and Jay have seemed like old souls since they were young.
Not to hyperbolize too much, maybe a bit, but Uncle Tupelo could have been the best rock band ever had Jay and Jeff been able to get along. Came close nonetheless and invented Americana.
@@shruggzdastr8-facedclown They're both timeless talents - It's every musician's dream to find themselves in a partnership like this, even if it turns sour
Should UT ever get inducted into the R&RHoF (the likelihood of that being 50/50, at best, I know, but we dreamers can still dream if we wanna -- they certainly are more than deserving of the recognition), I hope those two can find a way to reconcile their differences just to give us fans a chance to see them play live at such a venue.

Only made 4 albums but they are all great.
Listen to Anodyne - amazing
@@bluegrassbeer1 And in all different ways. The first two have some overlap, but that's about it.
@@edfinkel3398I mean you could say the first two were louder and more rock/punk adjacent than the last two were slower and more country adjacent
jay's song writing connects to the common man like very few others do. what a gift.....

I felt nothing

Yep
Such kids. Can we go back to then? Absolutely great music.
35 years ago, seems like yesterday
such a good band, and only such a small following. such good talent though, amazing music
They nailed it. So cool and original.
The sound of my youth leaving and the old man starting to show up.
that's life for ya

Best albums I ever bought came from Uncle T. Hear that Minutemen-tight climb to punches and peaks. Good as jazz but great at weddings.
So dang good.
Wow, what a rough and rare gem!
Never got to see them live. What I wouldn't give to have them get back together for a single one-off show.
They were soooo good.
Man, I wish Jeff and Jay would so something again. Their voices sound great together.
Jeff is too egotistical
Priceless footage!
Miss this band got to see them a few times and it was fun

This is the Midwest’s version of Rush’s Working Man. Brilliant.
shapes of things to come
Tweedy....born with pure talent.
Farrar ain't no chump, himself

@@shruggzdastr8-facedclown exactly.
@@shruggzdastr8-facedclown sadly I don’t think they’re ever gonna reunite
They rock
Amazing musicianship
Brilliant!
My boys!
Belleville's finest
Great
Rock n roll!!!...1989
the difference between talent and professional is years on the road, J^2
They should've looked no further than The Kinks. The Davies Brothers ⁰fought and FOUGHT. They still held the band together
Babies…
No kidding. Has it really been that long? Jeff ripping on the bass.
Need more cowbell.
Was DHTV a public-access channel back when that was still a thing?
Needs more cowbell
I think Jay Farrar liked using it.The cow bell makes its return in the song "Drown" by Son Volt."I got a fever...!!!".
Such a shame they split, Son Volt and Wilco don't even come close
uh. "trace" is one of the best. ever.
