I'm about halfway through my second listen of this album, and while it's not for everyone I must admit it has me turned on to that bluegrass sound. The album is by the members of Old School Freight Train and features instrumental reworkings of some of Wilco's "highlights".

Definitely worth a listen if you're a fan...

Pickin' on Wilco taps into the band's rich musical roots and guides them in new directions. With scorching bluegrass runs and blue highway laments, the hottest banjo, mandolin and fiddle players in the business take Wilco's music for a spin down unexplored country roads. The hard-driving, homegrown soul of these bluegrass covers proves that when all is said and played, Wilco is simply a great American band.

old school freight train participated in the bluegrass tribute to air, as well. i have their cover of "sexy boy" and it's really not too bad. wilco is a lot closer to bluegrass than air, so i'm interested to hear their interpretations.

Or "Some Dispute over T-Shirt Sales" or "Clean it Up"

Of course, they could do "Hurdy Gurdy Man" or "The Wooden Song" quite easily.

MAKE IT HAPPEN!

I received a bluegrass tribute to the Beatles for Christmas. I don't think I've listened to it yet, though.

We'll have to work out some kind of trade. I'd like to get some of that.

And I'll get a couple tracks up in a bit for anyone wanting to hear a sample.
