...building with wedding-cake ornamentation. There, in a bulbous bee costume, stood Jerry Seinfeld, being attached to a guy wire by several burly technicians.

But Sky Blue Sky is bright and affecting, mixing doses of '70s soul on tracks like Side with Seeds and Hate It Here with the sun-drenched guitar rock of Impossibly Germany and What Light, on which Tweedy advises, "It's alright to be frightened." Die-hard Tweedyites might howl at such signs of Wilco's mellowing. But mellow still sounds pretty good to the rest...
