Disc 1 - I Am Trying To Break Your Heart (high definition digital transfer, 16 x 9 anamorphic presentation). Feature commentary from director Sam Jones and Wilco. Original theatrical trailer. *Disc 2 - Over 70 minutes of extra footage, featuring 17 additional Wilco songs, alternate versions of songs from "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot", live concert performances and new unreleased songs. With deluxe 40-page booklet with filmmaker's diary, exclusive photos and liner notes from Rolling Stone's David Fricke.*In early 2000 Chicago-based rock band Wilco began preparing for the recording of their fourth record, YANKEE HOTEL FOXTROT. Filmmaker Sam Jones went along with them to document a band at the height of its creative powers. What started as a simple documentary about the making of a record became a far more dramatic saga when, early in the recording process, drummer Ken Coomer left the band. Then months later friction between vocalist/chief songwriter Jeff Tweedy and multi-instrumentalist Jay Bennett resulted in Bennett's departure. Adding to the setbacks, upon the completion of the record Wilco's longtime label Reprise rejected it and released the band from its roster. I AM TRYING TO BREAK YOUR HEART chronicles the acclaimed band's efforts to overcome these difficulties-efforts which eventually helped to make FOXTROT the band's most successful release. Director Jones intimately captures the band on film as they perform over twenty songs. More importantly, he also captures the pitfalls that develop when strong personalities embark on a collaborative creative endeavor. Fans of the band will have plenty to cheer about, while the uninitiated will come away with further cinematic proof of the difficulty of achieving the rock and roll dream.
