"Closer to Fine" was released on Indigo Girls in 1985. This was released in 1992.

That's a nicely composed cover photo, which could be called 'a study in lines'. Very American - you certainly wouldn't get roads as straight and long in the UK, or in any other European nation, I suspect. The photo just screams 'road movie'. Song's a bit dull, mind.

Don't know but what a cool lyric and one things for sure - the less you seek your source from some definitive the closer you are to fine.

Personally I would start with March 16-20, 1992. Peter Buck produced it. Its very much an accoustic driven album. Its my favorite Uncle Tupelo by far.
 
I agree, thats a great album. The song "Sandusky" is fantastic. I have the marble-ized vinyl version and its consistantly good tunes all the way through.

One of the great unsung American bands - It's always great to hear Uncle Tupelo on RP.

There really should be way more cuts played from U.T. on RP, starting with No Depression.

Every time I hear this song I like it even more. Does the whole album have the feel of this one? (or, I should say, what album would be a good place to start?)


start from the beginning and enjoy the ride.... 1) "No Depression"; 2) "Still Feel Gone"; 3) "March 16-20, 1992"; 4) "Anodyne"

there are NO bad Uncle Tupelo songs...they range from excellent to classic.

despite having a relatively small body of work (4 albums over about 5 or 6 years), they are one of the best and most influential bands of all time.
