…Pretty special stuff – still pales in comparison to seeing him live – but its a rare peek behind the curtain of the great and wonderful Wizard of Oz. There are times in my life when Bon Iver is the only thing that matters and For Emma, is the only album in the world. Very few others that i can say that about – Chan Marshall, Ryan Adams, Arcade Fire, Radiohead, Nick Drake, very few artist have the ability to totally consume me for weeks at a time – Bon is the newest on that list. Thanks for the NPR rip Gregor – your work, as always, is very much appreciated.
Just backed up my earlier appreciative words the good ol’ american way – wish i could have done more. Things will get better.
