Wilco reveal unreleased A.M.-era track "Myrna Lee"

03 November 2017, 17:12 | Written by Laurence Day

Ahead of reissues of their first two albums, Wilco have shared a previously unreleased track titled "Myrna Lee".

The song comes from the sessions for debut LP A.M., recorded just months after the demise of predecessor Uncle Tupelo, and it features lead vocals from bassist and multi-instrumentalist John Stirratt.

This isn't the only unheard track that's seeing the light of day due to the reissues, with both A.M. and Being There coming with demos, alternate takes, and various outtakes from their respective sessions.

Wilco's bandleader Jeff Tweedy has been awful busy lately - although the follow up to last year's Wilco Schmilco probably isn't coming all that soon, Tweedy's kept occupied by releasing a solo album and working with the iconic Mavis Staples.

The reissued editions of A.M. and Being There are due out 1 December via Rhino.
