VINYL FORMAT. The Minus 5, the pop collective formed by Scott McCaughey of the Young Fresh Fellows, is back with a new CD, "Down With Wilco." Departing from McCaughey's historic process of recording basic parts and gathering additional recorded pieces from participants, "Down With Wilco" is a much more collaborative effort. Along with recurrent participants, R.E.M.'s Peter Buck and Ken Stringfellow of the Posies, "Down With Wilco," of course, features Wilco members Jeff Tweedy, John Stirrat, Glenn Kotche, and Leroy Bach as well as special appearances from Rebecca Gates, Christy McWilson, Sean O'Hagan, Charlie Francis, Jessy Greene, and Brian Paulson. This lovingly crafted, 180-gram vinyl tour de force is sure to remain a family keepsake for years to come.
