Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars late-in-the-day, bottom-of-the-beer-bottle beautiful.......2003-07-22

A lovingly put together compilation. There's not a track out of place here. Gorgeous stuff. You'll want every album represented on this compilation. Every track teaches you something, expands on the last and paves the way for the rest.

4 out of 5 stars A Lucky Find.......2003-06-06

As a passionate fan of Wilco, I blindly purchased the CD solely because it contained a Wilco song, "War on War", hoping that the CD would contain other great music and perhaps produce a diamond in the rough band to my collection. And the CD filled my hopes on all accounts. It's a really great record.

The music is largely acoustic-based but contains an eclectic blend of folk, country, bluegrass and rock sounds. Lyrically and musically this CD delivers the goods.
