Mangum, Jeff / Live At Jittery Joe’s

American Dust

Live at Jittery Joe's is a classic album from Jeff Mangum, the genius behind Neutral Milk Hotel. This breathtaking acoustic performance includes solo versions of several songs from that band's albums In the Aeroplane Over the Sea and On Avery Island, Phil Spector's "I Love How You Love Me," and the never-officially-released original "I Will Bury You in Time." It is available on vinyl for the first time in years. The show took place at a local coffee house in Athens, GA, in 1997 and was recorded onto High 8 video by acclaimed independent film maker Lance Bangs. Live at Jittery Joe's is an essential recording for anyone who was never able to see Mangum or Neutral Milk Hotel live--and even for those who did.  "This is Neutral Milk Hotel frontman Jeff Mangum spinning his unique, beautifully tangled web of visceral flesh imagery, odes to Anne Frank, and cryptic, vivid storytelling." --Pitchfork (7.9 rating)  "... a compelling glimpse into the mind and art of one of indie rock's greatest artists." --Allmusic
