I just listened to 30 second clips of each song from A Ghost is Born and Being There and from the little I heard I could hardly be more impressed. .......Ordering both albums right now, in fact.

Wow! That was quick! They also have a great album called Summerteeth which came out in '99. If Being There is the White Album for its sprawling eclectic nature, then Summerteeth is like Revolver, with that freshly and crisply-minted sound and its snappy, fairly short, semi-psychedelic sounding songs. There are about four songs near the beginning that I skip over, but the rest of it is great. Also, the Mermaid Avenue albums (Vol. 1 & 2) are interesting: Woody Guthrie's daughter found notebooks of his lyrics, but with no music. Wilco and Billy Bragg teamed up to set them to music, and the first one was really good; I haven't heard the second one.
