Unlce Tupelo - WMBR - Boston, MA - 1991-1-24

Dipping way back into the archives today. 1991, 18 years ago almost to the day. Jay Farrar's voice has not gotten any less special after all this time, listen to Whiskey Bottle and feel the hair on your arms stand up. Tweedy sounds sooo young; a pubescent little weirdo (second paragraph, second sentance) with a great voice.

Since UT Tweedy has become an indie(?) superstar and Farrar has really kind of hid in the shadows. I saw Son Volt last year (again, I think almost to the date) and Farrar was f*ckin on man. Anyways, this is a great showcase of two amazing artists finding their niche in the music world, enjoy!
