Message: [QUOTE="8893, post: 4102573, member: 93"] I loved Uncle Tupelo and really liked Son Volt's first two releases; I actually made a cassette with [I]Trace [/I]on one side and [I]A.M.[/I] on the other so I could kind of feel like Uncle Tupelo still lived a bit. After [I]Okemah and the Melody of Riot[/I] I really lost interest because it all started to sound the same to me, and especially the same mood. I saw Son Volt live and it was good musically but likewise somewhat all the same sound and kind of subdued. I've seen Wilco live more times than I can count at this point and they are a freaking blast, and all over the place musically--in a good way, at least for my tastes. I only saw Uncle Tupelo live once, but they seemed a lot more like early Wilco to me than the more somber mode of Son Volt. [/QUOTE]
