Perhaps the best single (official) source for what My Morning Jacket is, was, and shall forever be...

I really wish they'd make a repressing of this.

THIS is what really turned me onto the band.

I was introduced to One Big Holiday from the Bonnaroo CD/DVD that they released for '04 (I believe 2004 but may have that wrong).

Loved that song. LOVED the video of that performance.

I purchased Z shortly after discovering them and thought it was good, but I wasn't immediately hooked.


It took getting the CD/DVD of Okonokos to really show me what this band was about. Amazing. One of my favorite live albums ever.

This was the album that hooked me as well.

Pretty much an "American Dad" type moment when I first heard it in the car on our local station, WTMD. The rest is history :cheesy:
