Do you like Wilco? Do you think Trace by SonVolt is a must for any road trip? Then you've got to watch this: on Conan from '94.
couple observations:
-this is the most Jeff Tweedy has smiled in one sitting since his fifth birthday
-gives you a good sense of why they were called "country punk" when they began
-hard to believe this was Jay Farrar's band (he's on guitar and goes shoe-gazer), not Tweedy's (probably explains why they broke up shortly after this appearance)
-I've seen them several times and Glen Kotche is an amazing drummer; he can do things most drummers don't even imagine. Having said that, I miss the driving rhythm of Ken Coomer on drums. Power-ful.
Enjoy.
