Wilco releases surprise, free album
It's called Star Wars. Available on WilcoWorld.net. I haven't heard any of it yet, but this is an awesome way to end a Thursday.

How long did it take you guys to receive your email with the download link?

I'm having the same problem. I tried two email addresses and no link in the last hour. Kinda bummed. I guess I jumped the gun with my last post.

I'm using Google Chrome and yahoo email address. Nothing in an hour. They must be getting bombarded or something.
I really don't want to use my other email addresses in case it's given out to lots of companies.

FWIW, I read on another forum that Yahoo email addresses weren't working, but Gmail addresses are. On Gmail, I received my download link within minutes. The album is a lot looser than most of their releases, but it's very good. You Satellite is my favorite track after 2 listens.

An hour later, my yahoo email still hasn't gotten it, but at least my work email got it immediately.
Too tired to listen now - I'll do it during my commute tomorrow.
The album's only 33 minutes, and I know they recorded way more than that during their sessions this past year.

Wilco is awesome.
Surprised they didn't release this before Solid Sound, the Wilco cult meeting, or play any songs off of it.
The first few songs I listened to shows a very angular, electric Wilco. Always great to see the different directions Jeff goes in.

Several of the ones I sent off to my Yahoo email finally came in this morning, about 12 hours after I clicked send.

What does everyone think of the album as a whole? I haven't had a chance to listen to it in full yet.

Re: Wilco releases surprise, free album
I like it. But I'm a fan of Jeff's bizarre, noisy stuff. It seems to me he put a lot of "Wilco" songs on his solo record and these are the leftovers of what could have been an epic triple album.
