St. Louis deserves respect for fostering and supporting this amazing music. "The Landing" of Heavy Metal Drummer isn't in Chicago folks. RIP Mississippi Nights and Uncle Tupelo.

Saw them once, and they blew me away. They need to get back together but sadly I don't think they ever will. BUT WE STILL GOT THEIR MUSIC! And on this late summer night with some ice cold beer, that's alright.

This song is about Columbia, MO. I lived in Columbia at the time and Tupe is the best band I've ever seen live. At the time this concert was happening, I was at a Bob Dylan concert, but I saw Tupelo the previous 2 nights in Columbia. I love when Jeff kicks in hard with the bass.

why does it suck? You still get to enjoy all this great older music and there will continue to be great music made that you'll get to enjoy after a lot of us old farts are gone...

drove 300 miles to see them in feb-1993, as good as the show was, you could sense that something was up and when I heard that they were breaking up, I was not surprised. The Bottle Rockets also played that night and had a hot set. 328 Performance Hall, Nashville, TN

just rode the metro over the river and saw the old MN from above. Incredible time for St.L. music and for the landing, mississippi nights and us 20-somethings. I was there this night. It was a show I'll never forget.

Son Volt vs. Wilco is apples to oranges. It's a manner of personal preference. I always likened Farrar and Tweedy to Lennon and McCarthy.. both shared songwriting duties and purportedly had a contentious relationship. Tweedy certainly has experimented a lot more especially later in his career with Wilco. Farrar always seemed to be much more of a traditionalist, and my preference seems to lie with his Son Volt records. Take your pick, it's all good music.

Tweedy's had a lot of contentious relationships. Jay seems to get along and go along with most others... Don't get me wrong, I think they're all great. But I remember seeing Golden Smog and Tweedy being all bratty... "When are we gonna play some of my songs?" And it took a while for Wilco's lineup to settle. I suspect Jeff wasn't an easy guy to get along with back then. I think he's probably grown up a bit since then, at least I'd hope so.

I can listen to Wilco and be alright with it. But I just can't see myself buying a ticket to see them live. I go and see Son Volt every time they come to town. I can't explain it.

@jczother Two great bands, there's no doubt. Sun Volt and Wilco are great. I guess all I meant to say was, Uncle Tupelo is a more powerfull band than the two splinter groups. My first experience with Farrar's and Tweedy's sound is with Tupelo, not with either Wilco or Volt. That is to say, my experience with Volt and Wilco is a linear progression from the break-up of Tupelo. I can't help but compare Wilco and Volt to what came before...reasons for the break-up aside.

@olddude1800 I agree with you about Jeff's voice, but Wilco is an awesome band with great guitar players. Son Volt is a solo project with a band's name.

Three bands came directly out of Uncle Tupelo: Wilco, Son Volt, and The Bottle Rockets. All three are terrific in their own ways. But for my personal taste, I would rank them Wilco (possibly the best rock and roll band in the world at this point in time), Uncle Tupelo, The Bottle Rockets, and then Son Volt.
@crujones2712 жыл бұрын
Wilco is greater. Thats not to say that Uncle Tupelo wasn't great, Wilco just has better more experienced musicians(well rounded)

Corrections. Jary Ferrar is not dead. He lives in South St. Louis and still writes and records. The Bottle Rockets did not come from UT. They began with three former members of Chicken Truck: Brian Henneman., Tom Parr and Mark Ortmann, along with a string of bass players. Only Brian and Mark are left in the band. Brian did sit in with UT alot. As for Wilco, I will never understand the popularity. I find Jeff's voice annoying, except when he's backing up Jay in UT.

Son Volt's Trace is better than any Wilco record. Just my opinion. Nobody seems to recognize SV. I know some younger people who think Wilco is like the best band in the world, and they've never even heard a song by SV. Don't get it.

I just can't REALLY get into songs when Jay sings. No offense to the deceased, but I just can't. If you like UT, but prefer Wilco, check out Jeff Tweedy at The Vic. He sings a bunch of old UT songs including "Gun". His voice is just more emotionally moving to me.
