Uncle Tupelo, Son Volt, and Wilco w/ Jason P. Woodbury

You say Farrar, I say Tweedy, let's call the whole thing off

This week Jason P. Woodbury of Aquarium Drunkard’s excellent Transmissions podcast (not to mention his own expansive musical projects) joins us for a discussion of Uncle Tupelo’s 1990 album No Depression, as we consider how the “country punk” genre label doesn’t quite capture the breadth and depth of Jay Farrar and Jeff Tweedy’s diverse artistic output. From the joys and challenges of songwriting collaboration to the solo projects each of them pursued after Uncle Tupelo’s sad breakup, we reflect on an important piece of ‘90s music history that continues to have influence today.
