I'm not the first to say it, but My Morning Jacket is the best young rock band in America. I saw them in December '06 at the Electric Factory and they blew my mind. The Philadelphia show was specially billed with post-jam/prog. jazz titans, The Benevento Russo Duo and pre-iTunes megastars, The Slip. I'm scheming to get up to Manhattan on June 6th to see MMJ headline one of their largest shows to date - Radio City.
If you don't want to stick it out through this whole clip, just skip ahead to -1:46 and prepare for a solid minute and a half of shredding; it's something most of their contemporaries (save Nels Cline and Wilco) are too cool or too scared to try these days.
