Around the time "The Apostate" hit the 19-minute mark, I thought of "Here Come the 7,000 Frogs" by Naked City. MG and Eye must have the same vocal coach.
I can obviously go on about all the songs that should've been on this list, but it looks like that is being taken care of. The fact that there can be SO MANY different possible top-10 Wilco songs for so many different people only speaks to the band's sheer fucking genius catalog.
I'll always pay attention to Morrissey. Even if what he says is sometimes nonsensical, it's eloquently nonsensical (and usually amusing). And it's not like he's releasing these statements straight to music news outlets--just to a fan site. Far from a cry for attention.
One of my favorite articles I've read on Stereogum. I'm a longtime Koz fan, so to see a countdown list of his albums accompanied by knowledgable and eloquent explanations/descriptions is a treat. It's obvious this was created with careful thought and deliberation.
Been anticipating this one for a while. I'm sure I'll love it, but I wish it had the instrumentation of Ghosts of the Great Highway. That guitar in "Salvador Sanchez" still tickles my fancy.
