Uncle Stuey's American Top 40, July 30th, 2009

Here's the AAA/Jazz list for this week. I think you have to like rock to like Wilco. That's not my thing. Elizabeth and the Catapult's album isn't particularly interesting; but they're just starting out and there are some hints of promise. And look, mysteries of mysteries Horowitz is on this list. I have no idea how that happened. Lizt isn't my thing either, but again that's personal taste.
