This lineup is tremendous, the new songs are great, and Jay's voice remains a force of nature. Son Volt is alive and very well!

Andrew has always been one the greatest unknown bass players in the world- one of those "effortless like breathing" players who, if they are in your band, make you sound gold every time

Son Volt - still as sublime and melodic as ever, beautifully crafted songs played with touching sensitivity and absolute perfection. Simply beautiful. American culture at its finest....

after a triumphant show at First Ave in Minneapolis, circa 1999, the band left the stage in the usual fashion, but our hero Jay walked straight forward and left the stage via the 15+ people who were the audience. It was very cool. His girlfriend greeted him and they went to the bar. I did likewise, and for the next 2 hours, I discussed music and culture with Jay Farrar. He was absolutely the coolest, most laid back guy you would ever dream. He told me about the tracking of wide swing tremelo, and other minutiae. Great live band. Not many bands stack up to these guys in their 90’s prime.

That's awesome. I'd love meet Jay but I get the feeling that he'd prefer to be left alone - or maybe that's just me projecting. Either way, his music has helped shape my life since I was 18 years old. My world is a better place due to him, J Mascis, and Jason Isbell. My favorite Js.

I absolutely love Tupelo, Wilco, and Son Volt ... and I have since around when Anodyne dropped. I know every word to every Uncle Tupelo album, no joke. Jay (and Jeff) are two of the greatest American songwriters of the past ... shit... going on 30 years now. But am I only who would like to hear Jay ... just ONCE IN A WHILE ... sing a song with a LITTLE bit different style? I mean, it's literally like he's sung every song he's written in almost exactly the same way ... nearly the same key, and same phrasing ... this entire 30 years. How about just a LITTLE variety once in a while, Mr. Jay? Is that asking too much? Anyways, this still sounds great, don't get me wrong, and I still think Jay's a minor diety, to be clear.
@debracholer69244 жыл бұрын
I think thats the riff...in the band...they are both great individually and know it and dont want to admit that the others style is as good as their own or that they are even better together...but seriously that riff was 25 years ago
@seangrexa47072 жыл бұрын
Pretty funny, pretty insightful, and pretty true. Something tells me his voice is comfortable in the D-E range and if you expect him to change now after 30 years,, well........that said, I'm thankful we still have this great band around and I'll take whatever I can get!? Sounds like 1996, but for now sounds like Heaven! ✌️💖

I was living in Golden for the last 25 27 years anyway he came out to Red Rocks and we were talking and he said well what are you into these days musically the first band I mentioned was Son Volt and of course Wilco and he said wow because he turned me on to Old Jazz like 40s 50s and earlier anyway rest in peace John Springer I always loved you
