Ryan Adams


And If you just finally forgot about the last posting I had on Ryan Adams, well guess what, he's back. Yep iTunes is doing a pre-order of the new cd entitled Jacksonville City Nights. It will be released Sept 27th and if we are lucky we will get the final cd Ryan is promising by the end of the year. This cd will be more country sounding than the last and also has a duet with Norah Jones. Another 2 weeks, get the countdown clock set. Not sure if I have ever told you but Cold Roses is one of the best cds to come out this year and I cannot wait for this one. In other Alt Country news, Wilco has a new cd coming out, its a live cd from their last tour.

Wilco Reveal Release Date, Tracklist for Live Album Kati Llewellyn reports:

Last May, Wilco treated local fans to four nights of music at Chicago's Vic Theatre. The mini-series sold out almost immediately, tickets bringing in outrageous amounts of moola on eBay only minutes after they hit the box office. Though this isn't anything new to a band who pulled two Grammys earlier this year and is treated like deities in its hometown, surely the speed of the sales was fueled partially by the fact that the performances would be recorded for future release on both DVD and CD. Who doesn’t want to be on TV?

Well, kiddies, your time has come. Redecorate the kitchen with some stainless steel appliances and then fill them with space food, ‘cause the future is here! Or sort of, anyway. While we're still in the dark on the DVD, Wilco has announced the November 1 Nonesuch release of Kicking Television - Live in Chicago, a two-disc audio set capturing highlights from those four May evenings. The tracklisting runs through a significant portion of the band's catalog, in addition to a cover of Charles Wright's "Comment". Alas, no Kiss covers, beautiful and stoned, though.

In the spirit of the live album, Wilco will be playing a handful of shows this fall, beginning this Sunday with Farm Aid. The band will be joining the likes of Willie Nelson, Neil Young, John Mellencamp and Dave Matthews at that charity event, which benefits farm families affected by Hurricane Katrina. They’re also opening for the Rolling Stones in Atlanta, and Jeff Tweedy will be performing a few solo shows in November.
