MMJ / JJ - Compilations & Collaborations List

downdownyoubringmedown · Mar 12, 2021, 10:15 PM

OK, since we are waiting patiently for live music to return, and of course, the new album to be released, I thought I would tackle this. I am attempting to list all Compilations & Collaborations that have been officially released (Vinyl/CD/DVD/Digital D/L) for both My Morning Jacket and Jim James. I am sure I am missing things, so if anyone has any additional tracks/info, let me know and I will update the lists. Much appreciated!

Compilations: Any MMJ/JJ track or version that is unique to that compilation, and does not appear on any MMJ/JJ Album/Single/EP.

Collaborations: Any non-MMJ/JJ track/album that MMJ/JJ has appeared on in any way (backing vocals, instrumentation, etc.). If I don't have information on exactly which tracks JJ appeared on, then I have just listed the entire album.

I know you can have collaborations on compilations, so I've tried to separate them as accurately as I can. For the purposes of these lists, none of the following releases are included: Carl Solo, Order of Nature, Strand of Oak, Monsters of Folk, New Basement Tapes, New Multitudes, Ruckus, Spanish Gold, Winter Death Club, Hotel Roy, Month of Sundays, etc.

Also, on a separate note, I know that all of the Compilation & Collaboration tracks listed below at one point have been available in lossless audio except for the following releases. I believe these were only released in lossy formats:
Bridge School Benefit Collection Vol.4 (Lossy iTunes only?)
Best of Bonnaroo (Free Digital Release in 2010)
Dear New Orleans... (Lossy Digital Release only?)
Play It Forward Campaign - I Love You All the Time (Live NYC 2015) (Lossy Digital Release only?)
30 Songs, 30 Days – Sic of Elephants (Andrew Bird feat. Jim James) (Lossy Digital Release only?)

If anyone has ever seen any of the above in lossless, please reach out to me, I'd like to find out where you saw them. I'd love to get some feedback, I'm curious as to what I have missed. Thanks!

Allow me to be the first to congratulate you on putting these lists together. I know I speak for others who will appreciate it. Seems the Forum is kinda quiet these days...

ericm · Apr 17, 2021, 05:58 PM

Fantastic work and appreciate the effort.

I'd just add JJ was also part of the closing at the Springsteen MusicCares event in 13, where I believe the E St Band and cast played Glory Days to close the show. I always get a kick out of Bruce saying "Get that man a guitar" in regards to JJ during the closer!

sillyboob · Apr 18, 2021, 04:52 PM

Should Strand Of Oaks' Eraserland be on here, since the band (minus Jim) was Tim's backing band?

ChiefOKONO · Apr 19, 2021, 01:51 PM

wow, great work in putting this together! Thank you!

Wouldn't it also be really cool to have all of the album artwork for these in a slideshow? :)

downdownyoubringmedown · Apr 19, 2021, 08:38 PM

Hey, thanks for the comments, they are much appreciated, I enjoyed putting the list together.

ericm - Good catch! I am having trouble updating the original post, but I'll update as soon as I can.

silly - The only releases on here are under MMJ, or Jim James. Just a personal preference for the list, otherwise this would have quite a few more if we included other projects from other MMJ members.

Cheers!

Haha, more like an easy catch for me as in addition to being an MMJ fan, I've been a Bruce fan forever.

Reading your list, the MusicCares event was one of the first things I looked at because it was great for me to see two of my all time favorites share the stage for that finale.

I'd also add the JJ/Morello collaboration on TGOTJ is absolutely amazing. I've been fortunate to see Bruce do that tune more than a few times. Several of those were with Morello, and they've all been fantastic but I honestly have to say the JJ/Morello version that night is right up there with the best versions I've seen. They absolutely killed it and I'd say the crowds reaction to that performance shows they felt the same.

A must see video for any JJ/MMJ fan. I can post a link to it but didn't want to hijack or clutter up your thread with videos unless you're cool with me or others posting links of these collaborations.

Hey mate - I would love to see that video, and any compilation vids posted are welcome! I think everyone is gearing up for some new MMJ activity in the coming months, so we should see some more activity on the board. Cheers & thanks, its appreciated!

It sure is!

Funny thing is they finally got that crowd up and on their feet and from that point on it seemed to me the energy in the room picked up through the end of the show. Prior to that it was like a bunch of people politely taking in the other performances almost like a dinner theater show and not a live music event.

JJ and Morello definitely lit a fuse on the night.

Yeah no doubt about that and I really enjoyed the passion in their singing and trading off verses as well as the solos. They were both really into it all the way around and put on a great cover.

sillyboob · Apr 25, 2021, 12:55 AM

Great list here. And that video is killer!
