Wilco - Sky Blue Sky (Half-Speed Master)

Sky Blue Sky is the eagerly awaited follow-up to Wilco's 2004 release A Ghost Is Born. The songs on this album harken back to the band's earlier releases, recalling their alt-country roots and eschewing the Jim O'Rourke-inspired noise that made Yankee Hotel Foxtrot such a seminal statement.

The album has hints of early-seventies Southern California folk-rock sweetness in the harmonies. It is filled with brash guitar solos that take songs like "You Are My Face" and "Shake It Off" in unexpected directions.

Heavyweight double vinyl produced by Nonesuch Records in 2007. Half-speed mastered by Stan Ricker. Gatefold sleeve. US Import.
