What I Am Reading

I have always enjoyed the music of Jeff Tweedy, regardless of the form that in which it was delivered. Uncle Tupelo, Wilco, Tweedy, and solo, Jeff Tweedy’s music has always been honest, direct, and complex. This is also why his autobiography Let’s Go (So We Can Get Back) is so good. He tells his stories with that same honesty heard in his music, and spiced with the humor heard in his live shows when he is filling the spaces between songs. He does not shy away from issues we want to hear, such as the break up of Uncle Tupelo and split from Jay Farrar, and the factors that played into his time in rehab. The book is his voice - honest, beautiful and direct.
