about

The debut album from The Autumn Defense, released in 2000 on Broadmoor Records.

From All Music Guide:
Wilco bassist John Stirratt knows a thing or two about lush, orchestral pop. His side project, which he leads with longtime pal Pat Sansone out of their New Orleans home base, isn't quite as ambitious as Wilco's later albums, but the '60s-style pop here rarely takes the simple path. Drawing equal inspiration from the Beach Boys and Love (as well as dozens of groups that were inspired by the duo), Autumn Defense infuses their debut album with gentle, fertile pop songs about long forgotten loves, endless summers, and electric moons. There's also a Mermaid Avenue-like collaboration with the ghost of Woody Guthrie: "Revolutionary Mind" is reworked into a modern folk tale.

Wilco being Wilco. Nothin' new here, but when a band has been in the busineess for decades and releases a 21 track album and most of them are really good, it's one of the greatest. alfayate

I have been out of the Wilco loop for a while now, but this album has pulled me back in. I adore it. Tweedy and co. know how to write gentle, heartfelt songs while adding just the right amount of unusual synth additions. The second half of the record ends INCREDIBLY strongly. If you've been out of Wilco for a while like me, check it out. BobandoCommando
