Welcome to Fall, 2009.

Yo La Tengo – Autumn Sweater (MP3)

In the fall of 2003, I had an obligation to take a trip from Denver to Athens, Ga and back again. This is back before I had an iPod (which, as irony would have it, is where I am today since my iPhone died yesterday) so I only had a few CDs with me for the journey. This song is one I played over and over again on the trip back. I’m fairly sure that because of that, my wife now has an aversion to Yo La Tengo and Fugu (the other band I played over and over again as we passed through St. Louis).

Yo La Tengo are rolling through Denver on Oct. 10 and you can be sure that you will see me there.
