Wilco – “What Light” from Sky Blue Sky, due May 15 on Nonesuch.
Pedal steel, pretty harmonies, conversational lyrics, prominent acoustic guitar… What more could an old school Wilco fan want? Maybe a little less piano, but hey. When you have 12 dudes in the band, they’ve all gotta do something, I guess. This is good.
Thanks to Wilcoworld for the mp3, and to lhb for pointing us to the direct link.
I really love this song. This is the Wilco we all know and love!
Meh. How about NO jazz guitar solos?
please tell me the rest of the record actually sounds like this. Wilco doing actual SONGS again? dont get my hopes up…
That’s what the album sounds like, Bob.
No twelve minute static drones? No rambling, loose metered lyrics? Dare I get my hopes up?
Less Nels Cline. That’s what I want.
wilcoholic song!
i love.
