When Uncle Tupelo, the band that defined '90s alt-country, split into two camps, Jay Farrar's Son Volt took the relatively arty road while Jeff Tweedy upped the rock & roll grit quotient with Wilco. Wilco's debut album, with it's alternative country style, was released in March 1995 and was their only album to feature Brian Henneman as lead guitarist. This album is chock full of country goodness, from the rousing opener "I Must Be High" to the reflective closer, "Too Far Apart."
"Wilco's no-frills recipe for heartfelt Country & Western rock is most satisfying, just as Tweedy spells it out in "Blue Eyed Soul": "Can you keep it simple/Can you let the snare crack/Can you let it move without holding back." Wilco have done that and more." - Holly George-Warren, Rolling Stone
