Audience recording. From the Charlotte Observer on 2/11/94: "Uncle Tupelo: It sounds like a cliche, but Uncle Tupelo's life as a band is only just beginning. Its first two albums were rocket shots of punk guitar fury mixed with a twang - Husker Du fronted by Hank Williams, as one writer put it. Its third LP was an all-acoustic affair of original and standard country-blues and folk tunes. Its latest (''Anodyne'' on Sire Records) is a magnificent, mature mix of both. With Joe Henry. Tuesday at the Pterodactyl Club."
Here is a longer preview and interview with Jay, also from the Charlotte Observer.

Audience recording. Gary Louris from the Jayhawks joined the band for the last three songs. Preview from the Star Tribune: "If Neil Young fronted R.E.M. (now there's a grand idea!), it might sound a bit like Uncle Tupelo. This trio may be from St. Louis (actually from Belleville, Ill., which is 30 miles away), but the Tupelos have always been cowpunks. Their fourth and latest album, "Anodyne," is vintage country in emotion and content, played with rock 'n' roll spirit and guitars, smartly produced by Minneapolis' own Brian Paulson. Uncle Tupelo has been a favorite at First Avenue for the past few years. The group will conclude its two-night stand there with a performance tonight open to people of all ages."
