@@angellacanfora Would you consider it a big stretch that Byrne has done a lot of Bossa Nova and Samba songs, too? Kind of laid back. And I think he has, in fact, done some dusty roads Americana and/or promoted artists like Lucinda Williams. Point is that the guy is multi-faceted as a musician, not defined by "Once in a Lifetime."

It's not Grateful Dead-ish because its boring as hell. Wilco is boring as hell and Byrne without the talking heads is boring. Both guys can barely play the guitar so that's why we are seeing "laid back folk rock." Neither can handle anything more, though Tweedy arguably did earlier in his career. Lately its all goofy junk like this.
@daddyboy35462 жыл бұрын
Fist off Jeff B. Or whoever you are… this song is 10 years old written by Tweedy and Billy Bragg. You’d do well to check the latter out sometime. Next Nels Cline is perhaps the most creative American guitar player of the century so far so-- You seem to want to pigeonhole things but that’s the beauty of accomplished artistry, it doesn’t fit into an easily defined category. But you do you. It’s cool to criticize… when you know something about what you’re criticizing. Keep spreading that joy that abounds in your comment. Peace

@@daddyboy3546 I was certainly a little too caustic in my comments though I stand by them, but you are more than a little patronizing. Of course I'm aware of Billy Bragg and Tweedy's treatment of Woody Guthrie songs (more like 20-25 year ago) and I'm not sure what your point is here. Again, boring as hell and I can't imagine why Billy Bragg took part. Second, I suspect I've seen Billy Bragg live more times than he has crossed your mind. He's fantastic and interesting and has been for decades. Jeff Tweedy is boring as hell and David Byrne has been nothing but boring in recent years. This is slop.
