Title: Chris Knox Tribute / Jefferson on WFMU
Post by: AllSussedOut on January 15, 2010, 09:56:17 AM

I don't know much about the Tall Dwarfs, sad to say, or the sad story of Chris Knox, but I will be getting acquainted with both shortly.  New Jeff Mangum material tends to get my immediate attention:

Any recommendations as to where to start if I want to learn more about the band?  And granted, Jefferson last "worked" at WFMU in 2002 (http://www.wfmu.org/playlists/MU)... but has Tom ever commented one way or another on him or on Neutral Milk Hotel?

Thanks!

Laurie gave me some Chris Knox recommendations on this thread: http://www.friendsoftom.com/forum/index.php/topic,6210.0.html
