I have enjoyed listening to this again and again. I love First Ave. and will do whatever I can to help make sure I can keep attending shows at this iconic venue. Thanks for including two of my favorites- The Jayhawks and Jeff Tweedy. Jackie

ALBUM OF THE YEAR, easily.
effortlessly on a par with X's vintage catalogue, "Alphabetland" is a solid testimony of a band as vibrant, creative and urgent as ever. Honestly, it's THAT good. Strongly recommended. ramblinerikk
