Reviews Customer Reviews for Yankee Hotel Foxtrot      heartbreakingly gorgeous      Rating:      I'd given this album a listen a few years ago, and while appreciative of it, it didn't stick, and so I returned it to the shelf from whence it came. I've been a fan of Uncle Tupelo and listened to both Son Volt and Wilco's earlier efforts, but I just didn't get the attraction. I recently popped it back into my CD player (yes, those things still exist) and now I can't get enough of it. "Radio Cure" may be one of the most beautiful songs ever written, and "Poor Places" with its driving minor counterpoint is another one of my favorites. The album is not one with only a few good tracks and is best enjoyed to as a whole. My only fear is that I love it so much, I may over-listen and grow tired of hearing it. Let's hope that doesn't happen.     Customer Reviews for Yankee Hotel Foxtrot Cd      Only for those who believe they are music snobs      Rating:      I have always like this band......Jeff Tweedy's band following the break-up of Uncle Tupelo. However, it amazes me that anyone who listens to this CD can give it 5 stars. It is an amalgamation of incoherent, irritating and unlistenable noise. Those who grade this with more than one star are either band members, close friends of the band or those who think of themselves as music afficionado's who know more about music than you do (similar to liberal Democrats who believe they know how to spend your money better than yourself). They can say to there snobby afficionado friends that they "get" this CD. Other, "less intelligent listeners", do not understand the depth of this music. What a load of bull.....I own thousands of CD's of all genres, and regardless of what music categroy you would like to place this CD into.....it qualifies as garbage in every one. Avoid this CD/Album at all costs.....Unlistenable.......
