That run from "Call The Doctor" thru "The Woods" is amazing. One of the best album runs in rock and roll history.
Funny I think I made it through to the Hot Rock. Saw them for that tour and another tour later and then saw them several years ago after being very disconnected. Never watched Portlandia. I knew very few songs. But Carrie stood on top of the drum kit in a pleated leather skirt and that was what stuck in my mind.❤
@@taintedlife2618 The Woods is a fucking amazing album, it was the perfect way to go out.
Replacements "Tim" remix sounds great. You can actually hear the bass now.
The remix of the Replacements Tim is a huge improvement of the original recording
Yeah, no one is complaining about the Remix. It sounds so much better and captured a lot of stuff that went missing in the original mix!
lots of people complained about it; lots of other people said it was an improvement. @@jjmachuca
@@jjmachuca There have definitely been some very loud complaints about the remix, but they are from a fairly small minority of Replacements fans. I'm not even close to one of the doubters myself, though -- on the whole I love the remix. (I do prefer the original mix of "Here Comes a Regular," however.)
@@cherokeeflan Yeah, I've heard that sentiment a lot and I agree. The additional piano on "Regular" is subtraction by addition and Tommy Ramone's thin, reverb-y mix actually helps "Regular" out - it gives it a haunted feel.
Everything else is better and it's not even close. Even the throwaways (Thunder, Clown) are great now. Not saying they're suddenly _good songs_ - it still mystifies me that Westerberg had Nowhere Is My Home in his back pocket and decided that Lay It Down Clown needed to be on the album - but the mix gives them enough punch to get over on attitude alone.
You get to hear this great guitar lick on "Little Mascara" that was totally buried in the previous mix. It's great!
I never expected her to pull Whitney. All at Once is my favorite song by her. They played it at my older brothers funeral in 1986 because he loved that album. That song gets to me in an entirely different way.
Bad Brains must be one of the most popular choices for What's In My Bag over the years. Good choice!
I almost saw them open for Beastie Boys but something happened. The Roots played instead.
@@PoochieVince That's a shame, but The Roots are amazing too! how lucky you were to see Beastie Boys live :P
@@thomyorke7622 1000%
@@PoochieVince Black Thought.. one of the living goats. not a terrible replacement.
Yeah...I would like to see a count of the most mentioned bands and albums on this video series. Bad Brains would be near the top for sure!!!
My favorite Dead Moon song is whichever one happens to be playing at the time.
Amen
i just picked up a dvd doc about them a few months ago. what a find!
Dead Moon is one of the greatest bands of all time for me. Dead Moon Night obviously, Down The Road is one I'm always playing on my drive to work, 54/40, they're amazing.
@@rudyciavarroUnknown Passage? Amazing film!
yes@@meghancalahan4798 and at the Omaha Public Library no less. never heard of them before but thats no surprise. the well known and iconic are not the whole of their scene or time but the tip of the iceberg.
Ha! I saw that Neil Young tour. It was pretty cool. He came out the first half and just played his acoustic guitar, then after a short intermission, he came out with his band, The Shocking Pinks, all dressed in 50s matching shocking pink outfits. Suddenly, they were all a rockabilly band because, why not? Sometimes you just gotta be you, or if not you, then Brian Setzer.
palehound! thank you sweet corin!!!!
D for disaster
E for my eyes
A for my anger
D before I die
M for Mona
O oh good
O oh good
N for the night!!
I for one am glad they mixed Tim. It needed it!
Yes! Sticky Fingers rock!
We need a follow-up video to find out what Carrie thinks of the remastered "Tim" and "Everybody's Rockin'" after she hears them...
i bought Everybody's Rockin within a month after it was released. It was in my heavy rotation for a few years.
I don't think there's anything wrong with a re-mix of Tim. Especially when it had the full blessing of Paul and Tommy.
Everything i read says the new mix blows the old mix away .. plus the old version is in that box as well.
@@gregdale1066 Yep, it's true. Tim is my all time favorite album, and this new mix is actually a significant improvement. I was blown away hearing the new mix of Little Mascara. It went from being a middling song for me (relative to the rest of the album) to now one of my favorites.
In general, I’m not a fan or remixes or remasters, etc. Call me a philistine but I want to hear the songs sound exactly as I remember them, regardless if someone thinks they can be improved. If the songs were good enough the first time, then they’re good enough 20 years later. Too much revisionist stuff across the board in the world. My two cents. And if I had a tv show about my life, I’d want Bastards of Young to be the theme song
Tim the gallery guard?
@@jeremypickett6610 I can totally understand that, thankfully, the original is still available to enjoy as well.
I'm not always of fan of re-mixes either but that is one of the best ever in my opinion. Such an improvement
From NZ and was teaching The Whale Rider novel to my English class last year, I appreciate Corin's random mention of it even if Carrie doesn't
Me too!
Thanks to Corin and Carrie for the references to British bands from my yoooff. I saw Stiff Little Fingers in London and the singer (Jake Burns) looked very much like a singer in a band I saw in a pub Lisburn , Northern Ireland (one of few that British soldiers were allowed to drink in) singing Rory Challenger songs. I still to this day wonder if the young lad in that band was Jake Burns, pre punk. I also saw the Modettes quite a few times.
They are legends 💜 ! Lady writers ✍️ !! 🎸
Great to see a shout out to Dead Moon.
How could the remix of "Tim" be a controversy? If you want to hear that Chris Mars could actually play a kick drum, or if you want to hear what kind of bassist Tommy Stinson is, the evidence is way more clear now.
you can tell these two are very close and have known each other forever, especially in the way carrie corrects corin throughout.
Who’s gonna tell this person?😂
😂
@@taintedlife2618 There's no harm in them still being close?
I can see why Corin wouldn't want to date her anymore
not close enough with their drummer from the classic lineup I guess
Iconic band alert. I love Carrie. Stiff Little Fingers "Alternative Ulster" still sounds good today, so does any Bad Brains song.
Unbelievably great picks!!
I wanted another 3 hours of this.
Total legends, about damn time Sleater-Kinney were on here, nothing but love for these two. Too many albums to choose from, but on my Amoeba picks, The Woods and No Cities to Love would have to go in there :D
RIP Wild Flag though...
lol Sticky Fingers is the name of a Rolling Stones album. It had a "working" zipper on the front of the album cover, if memory serves me. I was a kid, so that fascinated me.
The Replacements Tim re-mix is excellent. I don't know if it's better than the original just yet, but worth a listen if you are into the band.
I remember many years ago on IFC they showed Carrie Brownstein (long before Portlandia) taking the Phish challenge. She tried to get into Phish. I recall she didn't care for them, but I enjoyed that.
Love that Heatmiser record. The Beatles cover is wild
Love "What's in My Bag," loved this one, very wry, informative, and entertaining...but...in fairness to Mark Knopfler "Lady Writer" isn't him ragging on some "lady" interviewer. It's about the character in the song seeing a writer/historian (hence references to "history" and "the Virgin Mary") on television (supposedly English historian and novelist Marina Warner) who reminds him surfacely of his ex. She did happen to be a looker so I can't say it's completely devoid of any ingrained sexism, but not in the way described by Carrie. Regardless, the boy can play.
Yes, not the end of the world, but a striking misinterpretation. I guess she probably had not heard it in a while.
Love Sleater-Kinney.... Dead Moon!!!
This What's In My Bag episode reminds me of my favorite era of NPR's All Songs Considered--when Carrie was on it.
It's hard to listen to Carrie Brownstein's voice without thinking that Fred Armisen is about to crash the interview and turn this episode into a skit.
Such a shame he passed, Rip Fred you were loved by many.
@@rupertpupkin5265sorry to be that guy, but wtf???
It’s never hard to listen to Carrie… 😉👍🏽
Spoiler: that is Fred armisen thanks to the SNL costume department
WTF ARE YOU TALKIN ABOUT@@rupertpupkin5265
Great taste girls!😊
I didnt think it was possible. Ed stasiums mix made me love tim more.
Love them & Amoeba !
Love Carrie so much!
😂 The bit where Corin tells Carrie that her "Tim" LP was remixed is priceless.
they're so cool i love them
Bad Brains! Hometown boys!👍
Hell yeah, Heatmiser!!
I've gotten used to original mix, but this is the first I've heard someone to be upset with Tim getting a new mix. They must love reverb.
Cool picks, especially Bad Brains.
Carrie, the remix of Tim is awesome!
That Neil Young album is really good.
Love these girls xx
I loved this. This made me realize how much I miss Portlandia. How funny would it have been if Carrie had pulled out a Portlandia DVD? 😂
And then put a bird on it!
I love that Carrie bought things based on the cover and not knowing what they sounded like .. ❤️❤️❤️
I love them so much!
I'm a HUGE Replacements fan. I can't wait to pick up Tim, the Let it Bleed edition.
Oh yeah, Dead Moon. I was fortunate to see both Pierced Arrows and Dead Moon before Fred passed away. And Toody remains a ray of sunshine in a weary world. Corin and Carrie are so knowledgeable and fun.
Dire Straits, for whatever reason, are always supremely underrated by people... I don't know why... Mark Knopfler is a one of a kind player and writer
Because they are super boring.
Music for sales reps
no, they and Mark were amazing.
He is a really superb gutarist, but so is Slash. Problem with GnR is Axl Rose sounds like four cats in a bag. Problem with Dire Straits is they're kind of just OK.
Carrie is so funny.
I'VE GOT A RECORD COMING TO MY WAX COLLECTION FROM THESE TWO LADIES!!!!! THIS HAS MADE MY EVENING!!!!!
I love them so much
Yes!
Dire Straits! Carrie!!! WHITNEY! TIM! Im really feeling you guys selections. Fun fact: Stasium had a video about the "Tim" remix process up and it was pretty interesting but they took it down after a day. I wonder if they were getting a lot of flack.
Corrin looks like that lady you only see in church who turns out to be pretty cool once you talk to her.
She looks like a new mom working in accounting barely holding it together
@@seejaneread a new mom? She's in her 50s.
Punk in publand! cool beats 😮
Intersting choices
Everybodys Rockin was made cause David Geffen complained going will you make a rock and roll record already. And Neil was like ok ill make a rock and roll album.
He had just done Trans(best show i’ve ever seen, and an amazing and unfairly panned album by short sided Neil fans), and after this and Old Ways he got sued by Geffen for not sounding “Neil Young” enough. Geffen didn’t support true artists. Everyone listen to Trans. Computer Age has one of his best riffs! The electronic songs are all amazing. The 2 “traditional” Neil songs are kinda duds, but Like an Inca is cool.
they're so funny😭😭😭
The Tim Remix is so much better than the OG. Really, this version is fabulous. Take it home.. The band hated the OG mix
Looking at the lyric for Lady Writer, it seems to be about a woman he sees on TV who reminds him of another woman, not a woman interviewer. It doesn't seem like Carrie Brownstein knows the lyrics/ what the song is about. Why would this song be considered sexist?
Lady writer on the TV
Talk about the Virgin Mary
Reminded me of you
Expectation left to come up to yeah
Lady writer on the TV
Yeah, she had another quality
The way you used to look
And I know you never read a book
Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
Then I recall my fall from grace
Another time, another place
Lady writer on the TV
She had all her brains and the beauty
The picture does not fit
You talked to me when you felt like it
Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
And I recall my fall from grace
Another time, another place
Yes and your rich old man
You know he'd call her a dead ringer
You got the same command
Plus your mother was a jazz singer
Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
Then I recall my fall from grace
(Oh yeah) Another time, another place
Lady writer on the TV
She knew all about a history
You couldn't hardly write your name
I think I want you just the same as the

Talking about the Virgin Mary
Yeah you know I'm talking about you and me

According to Rolling Stone magazine list - "The 250 Greatest Guitarists of All Time", Carrie Brownstein is a much better guitarist then John McLaughlin, Ry Cooder, Mark Knopfler and Ritchie Blackmore ... wow - guitar wizard )))
Love all the selections and the insight… Carrie, please do another Portlandia special with Fred. There is no show that even compares to the creativity!
the episode is still playing as I write this, and this is shaping up to be one of the best "what's in my bag" i've seen. Remix!?! I suddenly feel validated.
I love Ms. Brownstein. Her comedic value is off da hook.
las amo.
Palehound rulesss
so sad they kicked the other one out of the group😣
That mo-dettes track is actually called "white mice" - the caption says white rice!
I love Sleater Kinney, if not for anything, for Carrie saying, "published turd."🤣🤣🤣
Maybe it's her accent, but she said "a polished turd."
Zipper, The Rats, Pierced Arrows, and the mighty Dead Moon. All badass.
"Wonderin'" is Neil Young's most hilarious video. The '50s throwback was unpopular and YET Billy Joel released similar throwback "Innocent Man" one week later. I enjoy Neil's pink period, maybe more than he intended!
Just listening to the new album it’s so good. They truly are the best.
Most well known Dead Moon song is going to be 'It's Ok' because Pearl Jam used to cover it
Yes. This is how I first heard it. I still remember being blown away by it on Touring Band 2000.
Two thumbs up for the SLF album
The Replacements Tim remix was done to strip off some of the commercial sheen that was added to the original mix.
I listened to Sorry Mom, Hootenanny, and Let It Be and absolutely loved the albums but i remember feeling a bit underwhelmed by Tim even though the songs were uniformly excellent. I’m looking forward to hearing the remix.
wonder what janet would have picked
That Neil album is actually good
I'm sure Carrie is aware by now that the Tim remix is SO much better. Love it.
Tim the Let it Be version is so much better, if that’s possible. The drums finally sound good. There are guitar parts that weren’t there before. The old Tim was great, but this one is better. IMO. Which is unwarranted. Cheers.
theyre the coolest people ever omg! so many good picks
A’yo River!!!
Love the 'Mats and have NO issues with them making a great album like TIM sound better!
I saw Sleater-Kinney and thought, hey, that's in Lacey. Turns out they're from Olympia so, yea.
I absolutely love that this band exists.
same.
keeps Portlandia from being a thing.
I was massive fan but dropped off after Janet left/pushed out.
Just the best band - Loved them opening for Pearl Jam once upon a time.
Mr Armstrong / Stiff lil Fingers : Corin / Tim
Corin 😍
I have a friend who similarly has a thing for Neil's Trans album. Several of us have taken on the mission over the years of ensuring she has as many copies of the vinyl as we can find.
Carrie, at 9.40 you do the Dire Straits phone conversation pose too!
Kudos to Carrie for picking out Tim, remixed or not. Swingin Party and Here Comes a Regular are brilliant. Pleased To Meet Me is also a great album.
This may have cut off too soon. I didn't see Janet's picks.
I miss Janet, too
Carrie always has good music recs
That Neil Young album is a guilty pleasure. It's catchy and retro like the albums Nick Lowe was putting out in the early 80s, but it is also bitingly satiric and funny as hell. The only joke about the Shocking Pinks album that wears out its welcome is the obscene amounts of reverb. They could have slathered it on one song and sold the gag, but the entire record is awash in it. A small quibble about an album that I otherwise love and always end up singing along to. Add in that great album cover and the hilarious music videos Neil made to support the album and it's a minor stealth classic. And speaking of satire, watching this interview made me realize that Carrie may have partly based Portlandia's Toni & Candace characters on Corin and the bitter brand of feminism that still seethes behind many of the things she says. I love Sleater-Kinney, but it's good to know that Corin is the one with a socio-political agenda while Carrie has always been more of just a punk-rock fanboy. Listening to her talk about music makes her so relatable.
heatmiser shoutout is major
let's goo
Saw them in okc the night we invaded iraq in 2003. They opened for pearl jam just goosebumps. They played fortunate son and ill never say anyone blew pj off the stage. But they gave em a run for their money.
Carrie hope you just bought Tim the remix. It’s excellent
Didn't you guys used to have a drummer?
