Wilcovered

Personally curated by Jeff Tweedy for the November issue of Uncut magazine this collection comprises 17 newly recorded Wilco songs by the band’s artists / friends, including Cortney Barnett, Kurt Vile, Sharon Van Etten, Low, Cate Le Bon and Parquet Courts among others, one previously released version of Jesus, Etc. by Norah Jones’ band Puss N Boots and one recently unearthed (but never released) cover of Casino Queen by Billy Gibbons featuring Jeff Tweedy himself on guitar with Billy. There is not a weak moment on this album and many outstanding ones. Sure to appeal to the rabid Wilco fan base the CD which accompanied the magazine sold out quickly and is no longer available.
