Five years ago, when Jim James, Mike Mogis, Conor Oberst and M. Ward first toured together, they were a study in contrasts as well as in camaraderie. Ward, hauntingly delivering his own blues and folk-based tunes, took a spare, intimate approach.

That was a rare, up-close opportunity to watch the interaction among these young artists, a send-off, in a way, as each went on to greater individual acclaim. But it was also just the beginning, a prelude to the collaborative adventure of making their first record together -- an album years in the planning and months in the making, one that has turned out to be far more than the already impressive sum of their parts. .... .....Click here.. to continue .. .... ...... .. ...... ...... .. ..!-END block to replace General Table-!.. -
