Uncle Tupelo - Anodyne (Vinyl)

Released in October 1993, ANODYNE was the fourth and final album by alt-country pioneers Uncle Tupelo. Cut live in the studio in Austin, Texas, the record moves from the driving energy of "Chickamauga" and "The Long Cut" into "Anodyne" and "Acuff-Rose," where fiddle and pedal steel add a flash of Cosmic American color. The album ended UT's short-but-remarkable run, with the breakup soon giving rise to two new bands: Wilco and Son Volt. In the new liner notes, music journalist Mark Deming reflects on the album's lasting weight. "Over those two weeks in Austin, Texas, recording ANODYNE, Uncle Tupelo created both a grand finale and a new beginning, and the music and the emotions ring just as clear more than three decades on."
