Son Volt Cd at Wilco loft

Spoon River Anthology is great work of American poetry -- basically, it concerns the dead towns people of Spoon River gossiping about one another from beyond the grave.-- circa 1925

I also see a copy of Jay Bennett's "Whatever Happened I Apologize". Strange.

zach, please explain. I'm not familiar with that work although I know R. Buckner's "The Hill" was based on it.

But how does it relate to Jay and Jeff?

(BTW, I know how most everyone is completely fed up with hearing about the UT breakup and the continuing acrimony between the 2 main players, but isn't it kind of cool to have that mythology?)

On the wilco website they have a cool panoramic shot of the loft where they record. You can zoom in and see lots of details. I zoomed in on the CD racks in the background and saw Son Volt's Okemah CD. I wonder if that's Jeff's or someone else's. Jay claims he doesn't own any Wilco Cd's I wonder if Jeff would claim the same about Son Volt?
