A Tribute to Uncle Tupelo (Flat Earth/NFN). Review by Aaron Shaul.
FOR ANYONE THAT'S LISTENING A TRIBUTE TO UNCLE TUPELO Flat Earth/NFN To steal some of this album's liner note thunder: Uncle Tupelo were the ultimate indie rock cover band. It's not that they didn't have enough quality material of their own from which to draw; Jeff Tweedy and Jay Farrar just happened ...

Sebastopol (Artemis). Review by James Mann.
JAY FARRAR SEBASTOPOL Artemis Sure, he's been hailed as a genius, or at least a legend. From the seminal group Uncle Tupelo that gave rise to the "alt country" movement (and No Depression magazine) to Son Volt, Farrar has long been known for his songcraft, which mixes elements as diverse as Bill Monroe ...

Terroir Blues (Act/Resist). Review by Aaron Shaul.
JAY FARRAR TERROIR BLUES Act/Resist Jay Farrar's 2001 offering Sebastopol was somewhat of a disappointment for me. It offered some quality songs, but it was mostly scattershot, hit and miss. It sounded like Farrar was scared he'd been treading water throughout his Son Volt years and, as a result, sought ...

Sonic Youth calls in sick and Wilco offer a languid performance. No, it wasn't all bad. It just could've been better. Rob Walsh was there.
... Tweedy and a few other members of his band come from the band that established the precedent for what is now widely known as "alt.country." I love Uncle Tupelo. Their No Depression and Anodyne albums are perhaps two of the best records of the Nineties. But when Jay Farrar and Jeff Tweedy decided to ...

... and company did all those years ago. This time around features some new faces, including Max Johnson -- the multi-instrumentalist who appeared on Uncle Tupelo's Anodyne and Wilco's A.M. , who adds everything but the kitchen sink. Forget your prejudices against mandolins, banjos, and country folk and ...

... -up, Being There , Tweedy and crew wrote some well-thought-out and executed songs. He forgot to do that this time. In a year that had the former Uncle Tupelo founder performing in the alternative super-group Golden Smog and co-writing Mermaid Avenue with Billy Bragg, the end of the year offering by Wilco ...

... , minor-chord anthems ("Even You"), this second release from Portland's 44 Long satisfies in a genre increasingly populated by apers and imitators of Uncle Tupelo and John Fogerty. Relying on hooks and a solid pop sense, Brian Berg and crew build songs on mood and melody, with vocals that at times remind ...

With the year drawing to a close, we thought it'd be appropriate for our staff to tell you what they thought the best stuff all year was. Features Editor James Mann kicks off with his choices for the Top 19 Albums of 2001.
... stuck in Mobile. Hot damn, this is good shit. 14: Jay Farrar: Sebastopol (Artemis Records) Being solo suits the retiring Farrar. Former kingpin of Uncle Tupelo and Son Volt finds firm voice on his solo debut. 15: Merle Haggard: Roots (Anti Records) Haggard has made it his mission to document country ...

November 1998 :: Ink Spots :: Son Volt (James Mann)
... at large outside his music. And I think that suits him fine. But it's the music that matters. Farrar formed Son Volt after breaking up the fabled Uncle Tupelo, the band he founded with now-Wilco leader Jeff Tweedy. From the classic debut album Trace, which contained the radio hit "Drown," and "Windfall ...

... . His sincere alt. country fits right in with Wilco, Lucinda Williams and Kathleen Edwards, but his sound is more along the lines of Son Volt and Uncle Tupelo. Whiskey Drown is Patrick’s first studio work, but it sounds like he’s a veteran. Actually, he is. He was in the Oklahoma City-based band Sugar ...
