Wise men from Kentucky, My Morning Jacket, are to release a double live album and a film of concert footage in September, report Pitchfork.
Okonokos: Double Live Album will be born unto the world on the 26th, with its visual twin following on Halloween.
A notably smug press release tried to explain to us in slow, clear tones that: "Okonokos is a creative concept conceived by Jim James, and it is as much a question as it is an answer. It is an enigma wrapped around a riddle. Okonokos is whatever you want it to be."
Hmm. What does an enigma wrapped around a riddle sound like? I'd venture this:
Disc One: 'Wordless Chorus' 'It Beats 4 U' 'Gideon' 'One Big Holiday' 'I Will Sing You Songs' 'Lowdown' 'The Way That He Sings' 'What a Wonderful Man' 'Off the Record' 'Golden' 'Lay Low'
Disc Two: 'Dondante' 'Run Thru' 'At Dawn' 'Xmas Curtain' 'O Is the One That Is Real' 'Hell' 'Steam' 'Dancefloors' 'Anytime' 'Mahgeeta'
