I wonder if Neil was in the room while Jeff was talking on the phone with the GQ writer. In that case, Tweedy could have had a facetious tone to his "celebrity" comment that would not translate well in writing unless described properly.

In watching the documentary, my sense was that there was some true respect and admiration coming from Jeff and the rest of the Wilco boys towards Neil.

I would give Tweedy the benefit of the doubt, but the comment, out of context and without tone description, is still unfortunate.

What a great documentary. Thanks for posting.

A really good balance of music and personality. Complete gem for fans. And for those who ask, "What's the big deal about this Neil Finn guy?," this is required viewing. Roundhead was oozing creative talent and integrity.

Bring on the record, I say!

I found a mention on the Austin City Limits website (where it provides a link to a Pitchfork article on the collaboration).

- looks like part one of the doc. is the only segment still available on Youtube....

Bummer. I checked one of the other links that I had bookmarked and it looks like Sony BMG complained and Youtube took them down.

They were linked from Entertainment Weekly yesterday as well as Pitchfork.

I had a feeling it was only a matter of time. I hope they magically reappear somewhere...

aw just too late too see any of it. I hope they magically reappear somewhere too...

- hopefully the doc. will get shown on other networks around the globe as the release date for the CDs gets nearer. I'm sure all parties involved, especially Oxfam, will want maximum publicity. Still seems the doc. is available under the 'watch again' facility on the TVNZ website........if any NZ Frenz haven't seen it?

OK i can understand links being pulled from YouTube if its copyrighted stuff or whatever...but that only works for the fans IF they actually do a commercial release or tell us how we can view this documentary in the UK/US anywhere else outside NZ!!
I'll happily pay for a chance to view this...as I'm sure many of us would.

Posting this here and on the '7WC2 - a bit more news thread'. Extract from email I've received from Jason Garman of Oxfam NZ :-

'wish I had an update on the doco in the UK. All I know is that the album release over there will be August 10. Fingers crossed that Sony will be able to place a version of the doco on UK TV around the time of the album release.'
