His new album Tooth and Nail seems - on a first few lstens - to build nicely on his earlier Americana-tinged excursions with Wilco on Mermaid Avenue with a set of mellow and essentially personal songs.

I'm looking forward to seeing him in Brighton again in May. Meanwhile, 'Handyman Blues' definitely rings true for me: I'd always opt for songwriting over putting up shelves...
