Wilco: Sunken Treasure
Author: Tim Grierson
Publisher: Omnibus Press
ISBN: 0857128612
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
In this comprehensive and probing biography, Tim Grierson examines Wilco’s history, discussing each of their albums in detail and exploring their often divisive 20-year output. With an eclectic blend of country, alternative rock and classic pop, Wilco was born out of the influential alt-country group Uncle Tupelo in 1994. Led by Jeff Tweedy, Wilco then made a series of albums that won varying levels of acceptance. From the relatively unsuccessful A.M. through the praised but contentious Mermaid Avenue collaboration with Billy Bragg and the troubled Yankee Hotel Foxtrot that eventually became their best-selling album, Wilco and Tweedy have kept the show on the road for two decades, winning Grammys, inspiring countless other bands and taking the flak on the way. This is their extraordinary story.

Falling Cars and Junkyard Dogs
Author: Jay Farrar
Publisher: Catapult
ISBN: 1593765533
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 89
Book Description
The former Uncle Tupelo and current Son Volt musician presents snapshots of the people and places he encountered during his decades-long touring career. In this collection of beautifully crafted autobiographical vignettes, Jay Farrar visits the places he’s journeyed to during his more than twenty years as a traveling musician. While recollections of Farrar’s parents and his formative childhood in the Missouri Ozarks are prominent throughout the stories, it is music and musicians that are given the most space and the final word, since music has been his creative impetus and driving force. In writing these stories, Farrar found a natural inclination to focus on very specific experiences; a method analogous to the songwriting process. The highlights and pivotal experiences from that musical journey are all represented as the binding thread in these stories, illustrated throughout with photography from his life. If life is a movie, then these stories are the still frames. “Falling Cars and Junkyard Dogs extends Farrar’s talents as he exhibits an eye for detail and a grasp of the human condition that proceeds directly from his own introspective nature.” —All About Jazz “Provides some illumination of the creative mind of a very private artist.” —Kirkus Reviews

Jeff Tweedy, Kinda
Author: Stian Johansen
Publisher: FlokkPress
ISBN: 8299934737
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
Poems and prose about musician and songwriter Jeff Tweedy. Best known from the rock band Wilco. Jeff Tweedy, Kinda, is a mix of poems, footnotes, short stories, imaginative interviews and scenes from documentary movies about Tweedy and Wilco. The book is an imagined story about Tweedy's life as a kid, singer, songwriter, son, father and husband. First published in Norway in 2014, as a book and e-book. Excerpts from reviews: “It is an elegant shortness over the story that creates drama and intensity” Gunnar Vilberg, Deichmann Litteraturblogg “…you are left with the feeling of knowing Tweedy, his life, but that is, of course, not the whole truth. The book tells maybe more about American culture, and it does so very well”. Andreas Milde, VG “Johansen manages to portray Tweedy as the weird original he is”. Øyvind Berekvam, Berekvam's blog “The short hypnotic poems draws nicely up situations and time images, giving the appearance of a listeners logbook”. Øyvind Vågnes, Dag og Tid
