81: My 00s No1 Album - James Walsh from Starsailor picks Yankee Hotel Foxtrot by Wilco

The Boys in the Band Podcast - A podcast by Peter Smith & Richard Gallagher

Categories:

Our series of bonus podcasts continues with James Walsh from Starsailor picking his favourite album of the 00s. James makes the case for Wilco's Yankee Hotel Foxtrot as his favourite of the 2000s. The band actually had to fight to get this released, with their record label refusing to put it out. That led to the band streaming it for free on their website before a different record company released it the following the year. And it was a good job they fought for it too, with the album critically acclaimed and going on to be a big seller! James explains what makes the album special. Remember you can catch our full chat with James about his band on our full-length Starsailor episode in our library. Starsailor or Wilco fan?
