I'm digging it right now...
Oh don’t fret about just getting this record. Enjoy the intrinsic earthiness – the goodness of Anodyne, with its quiet insistence that, as suspected, Jay Farrar has always been and will always remain constantly involved with all that rocks and matters; through the creation, preservation and redemption of all things kick-ass in life. Enjoy!

Not to make a funny thing out of something as tragic as chickamauga. It's a serious song.
I'm still fairly new to Uncle Tupelo's Anodyne. At first, I thought it was too slow in spots and there was too much space in between verses, like in Slate or Fifteen keys. I always skipped over Acuff-Rose, but The Long Cut and Give Back to Key are good enough to carry this album into multiple listens.
Oh man...Slate and 15 Keys are two of Jay's best songs ever, whereas The Long Cut isn't even a top 10 Tweedy UT song.
I think I'll have to respectfully disagree with you on this album.
True, The Long Cut isn't one of Tweedy's top 10 songs. Proof of how amazing his canon is!
I think The Long Cut and We've Been Had are two of his best.
