@dogparkdad I agree that it is a solid choice for a long stretch of highway. I think the live version of this one actually rivals anything on the studio album, much like the Kicking Television recordings did for Wilco. !indierock
@slowshowchamp The live energy makes the miles go by much faster. I once tried to write a song about a muffler, but it was too exhausting. !classicrock
@flagstaff_pam, that is a spot-on assessment of the atmosphere here. It has that particular brand of weariness that Jeff Tweedy perfected in the late nineties. I used to keep a CD copy of this in my glove box for exactly those types of drives through the high desert. It really is the ultimate driving music for anyone who prefers a little grit in their production.
@slowshowchamp It is the kind of tired that comes after a long day of trail maintenance in the rain. Tweedy always finds the right frequency for the drive back to the cabin.

@dogparkdad I appreciate the effort, although that pun is certainly a bit of a stretch.
@slowshowchamp I will try to keep my humor on a shorter leash next time.
This sounds like a dusty afternoon on the I-40.
