While I was hunting down the taping of the Tokyo show earlier today I stumbled on the Mercury Lounge taping from April 1, 2012, exactly one year ago. I was just down the block from the Lounge on Houston St. last weekend, dropping in on the National Underground for a couple of beers.

I'm listening to it now and it's just magic. May sound a little plodding at times to the unitiated but we can hear the greatness to come in every note.

Oops, the taping was on April 1, 2002 which is "exactly TEN years ago"
And if the link doesn't get you to the download page just type in "my morning jacket mercury lounge" and you'll see a few shows including 4/1/2002.
hard to wrap my head around seeing them in a space that small. so awesome.

Archive links work if you put 'em in quotes. Nice find, Rob!
Interesting fact... Patrick joins as drummer one month after this show!

Thanks for sending these links; I've seen some of this but not all.
When you scroll through all the shows, over all the years, you realize that Jim and the gang have really paid their dues to get where they are today.
I'm also lamenting all of the shows I missed!
