I think maybe he was refering to these two innacuracies (typos?)

Aside from an acoustic guitar, it's all vocals-- two tracks layered simply over one another to form both primary and backing vocals. Most of the songs here-- especially those from Tennessee Fire-- are similarly minimal, with little or no input from other band members.

The demos for My Morning Jacket's 2001 breakthrough At Dawn feature more of the band, but without sacrificing that same sense of space. "The Bear" and especially "Heartbreakin' Man" sound like inspired practice sessions, informal but spirited, while "War Begun" and "Twilight"-- both recorded live at local station WFPK 91.9 FM-- lose only a little of their effect for sounding so clean.

Flip flop the bold album names and it's a great article.
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

Picture of You sounds like Jim's voice when in Month of Sundays. That there's a good track.

QuoteHey everybody,Theres a real interesting review of the Demo Packages and Month of Sundays cd's at Pitchfork.com

Umm... No.
What do you mean no? I didn't think it was a bad article.

Sorry for the delay in response, I've had a lot of stuff going on. I said "Umm... No" because the link provided went to a website for a dairy farm or something to that effect. You know, where you can buy cattle and shit. It was funny.
--- and that's 2 real 4 u.

I'm sure this is a silly question & I'm going to look like a fool but can anyone explain the cover to me?
God will forgive them. He'll forgive them and allow them into Heaven.....I can't live with that.

I was wondering the same thing.

It just looks like typical Jim humor.  ::)

the quick little lick at the beginning of lowdown is great...i wish Jim would do that when he plays it acoustic
