Yankee Hotel Foxtrot Trivias

Trivia:
The building on the cover is Bertrand Goldberg's Marina City (a condominium built in 1964, currently hosting the House of Blues at the ground level) in Chicago near the Loop.

The album features recordings from numbers stations, and is named after one of them: a looped recording at the end of the song "Poor Places" of a mysterious female voice reciting "yankee hotel foxtrot" over and over. The woman recorded in the clip is alleged to be a Mossad agent.

These samples put the band in some legal troubles: they were taken from the Conet Project, a 4-CD set of numbers station recordings. The album's label, Irdial, sued Wilco for copyright infringement; the lawsuit was eventually settled with Irdial receiving some undisclosed royalties for the song
