Wilco – Alpha Mike Foxtrot: Rare Tracks
Wilco – Alpha Mike Foxtrot: Rare Tracks 1994-2014 (2014)
Chicago alt-rock band Wilco celebrate their 20th anniversary with a pair of compilations: one a best -of collection and the other a box set of rarities. The rarities set is called Alpha Mike Foxtrot: Rare Tracks 1994–2014, and includes live tracks, demo cuts and rare recordings culled from throughout the group’s career and features appearances from Feist, Fleet Foxes and Andrew Bird.
Four-CD box set have been produced by Grammy-nominated producer Cheryl Pawelski, co-founder of Omnivore Recordings and veteran of countless projects from labels including Capitol and Rhino. Pawelski notes in the press release, “Like a lot of fans, I had collected these straggling tracks over the past two decades of following Wilco’s every move. Alpha Mike Foxtrot includes almost every unique, essential performance that appeared on soundtracks, tribute albums and B-sides—and there are probably a few surprises for even the sharpest collector. This set presents an alternate history of the band, kind of a sideways view, and ultimately, it’s a super-fun listening experience.”
