Free Music Notes for 89/93: An Anthology Album
Free Music Review: Not the best possible collection of Uncle Tupelo music.
Hit: 3 Stars
For completists, it's worth it for the live tracks, but for everyone else, the selection of tracks is far from comprehensive.I don't just mean that it's missing my favorite song, although it is. (It's "Punch Drunk", by the way.)
I mean that it seems to be weighted towards "bar songs" to the exclusion of much of the bands' other work. If you had never heard the band before, this anthology might convince you they were just another bar band. It robs them of their depth.
It's a shame, because depth and range were Uncle Tupelo's strengths as a band.
I'd recommend picking up either "Still Feel Gone" or "Anodyne" over this collection. Both albums are better introductions to their music.
