Perry Schwartz’s RDIO Cure – Special Feature on Wilco’s The Whole Love
Halfway through Wilco’s eighth studio album, Jeff Tweedy proclaims, “I would love to be the one to open up your mind.” The lyric is found at the heart of “Open Mind”, by far the most straight-forward song on The Whole Love and a track that wouldn’t have been out of place on the Wilco/Billy Bragg Mermaid Avenue collaborations celebrating the works of Woody Guthrie. It’s the kind of track that made Wilco the darlings of the alt-country movement in the 90’s, and it’s the kind of song that hasn’t appeared on a Wilco album since 1996’s Being There double album.

That’s the market timing Image Comics is hitting with the release of Lovestruck, an original hardcover graphic novel by writer Dennis Hopeless and artist Kevin Mellon.
