I guess you can consider me a somewhat new MMJ fan. I heard about the band through another band and so I downloaded a few tracks to check out their sound, and well, I was hooked from the start. I ran out and bought "It still moves" and it became one of my favorite albums almost instantly. I can't get enough of this band. Right now I only have "it still moves" and "the tennessee fire". When i saw the band live they didn't have any copies of "at dawn" at the merch table and I haven't seen it at any local record stores...but anyways I'm rambling. I plan to get all of the albums real soon and I'm curious as to how you would rank the albums? thanks. Include the two new albums that were just released.
Here is my list in order:
The Tennessee Fire
At Dawn
It Still Moves
My Morning Jacket Does x-mas Fiasco Style...EP
Chocolate & Ice...EP
Acoustic Citsuoca...EP
Early Recordings...The Learning
Early Recordings..The Sandworm Cometh
My Morning Jacket/Songs:Ohia...split EP
Sweetbee's....EP
Heartbreakin' Man....EP
Of the ones I have Chunt (I recognize your name from NEM :))I'd rank order mine like this:
At Dawn
Live at Bonnaroo
It Still Moves
The Tennessee Fire
Does Xmas Fiasco Style
Acoustic Citsouca
Early Recordings: The Learning
Early Recordings: The Sandworm Cometh
Cheers~
Sheesh, this is tough - so I'm sticking to the LP's(though the ranking is pretty much subjective and dependent on my mood - I love 'em all):
1 - At Dawn
2 - Tennessee Fire
3 - It Still Moves
AcousticcitsuocA is ESSENTIAL, though. When we're alone, I just want to cuddle with it.
You may be a big fan now, but once you hear AT DAWN you will be one of us. MUhahahahaha!

So true, so very true...not a week goes by when I don't listen to all or nearly all of At Dawn. Weird thing is, I never tire of it!! ;D ;D
Yes I remember it well--my first night alone with MMJ. It was AT DAWN that I lost my heart to the jacket and will never regret the meeting :D
Damn, now I really can't wait to hear At Dawn. I barely asked for anything for Christmas this year, At Dawn being one of the few things I asked for. I love the Tennesee Fire and It still moves, so I'm dying to hear the album in between the two others. Thanks a lot guys
I've got two vinyl copies, just in case I spill beer on one or something.
chunt - when you read this run out to get At Dawn Immediately!!!
my faves are at dawn and it still moves but i love all their stuff pretty much, and im listening to live at bonaroo right now. it Rocks!!!!

No joke, I was singing that exact song, those EXACT lyrics in my head when I read your post. Very weird thing to have happen.
"That's when my knife rises
their life ends and my life
starts again"
MORE BLISS. ;)
