I have discovered Sonic Youth late in life...the Wonderfull thing about music is that it lives on, waiting to be discovered. Bloody brilliant.
I discovered Sonic Youth early in life… I was 13 when Dirty came out and the wonderful thing about music is that it lives on with you as you grow old. Discographies become the soundtrack to your life through stages. There’s middle school Sonic Youth, high school Sonic Youth, college Sonic Youth, post college and adulthood Sonic Youth and now their respective solo careers… It is bloody brilliant.
I recorded this on my directv and invited my mom to watch it with me, she is not very fond of my music taste but we hadn't shared a moment in a while so she said yes. She resembles Kim Gordon at a certain degree and as the concert's intensity started to grow I was worried she was going to leave me alone watching it so, I turned back to catch a glance at her and she was absolutely astonished by Kim's stage presence. I made no comment whatsoever and just continued to watch the show in silence and let the music play louder and louder. By the end of it all she said was: "I never thought women in dresses and high heels could rock the fuck out in between men!". I just laughed and hugged her.
This is what I mean when I say that, music, regardless the genre, is one global and universal language that connects people.
Sorry if my english redaction is not very sharp, just wanted to comment and share this.
Wow, the vulgarity. Does your mother kiss you with that mouth?
@@bradfield2266 Shut the fuck up nerd
It's true, music is a universal language. I'm glad you got to share that moment with your mom!
Your comment is beautiful. I connected in a very emotional way since I lost my beloved mother just three months ago. I took care of her in her last five years. I don't think she appreciated SY though (my fav band for 35 years)
I'm nearly sixty, my mother died a few years ago but my abiding memory of her was her openess to music of any style or genre. I have only just started to listen to Sonic Youth and I know she would have enjoyed them too, maybe because of her ability to enjoy all music I learned to embrace (most) musical styles. she loved everything from Motzart to the sex pistols and she never asked me to turn my music down when I was a bratty teenager, she would just bring in a tray of tea and biscuits for me and my mates and sit with us and enjoy whatever we were listening to at the time.
Jim O'Rourke!
I love Murray Street era SY. LOVE!
I have been an SY fan since I first discovered Daydream Nation in 1989. I have been a huge fan since then. The only live footage of SY I have seen was in The Year That Punk Broke. I have to say I would never have, in a million years, thought they could pull off these songs so true and back to back. I knew there was a reason I have loved these guys so much.
I met Thurston a couple of days ago. Cool guy.
Thank you Sonic youth.Your Music is the closest we will ever come to Magic.I always feel you are one note away from transcending space and time..........
I couldn't agree more ;)

I saw SY a few weeks after this co-headlining with Wilco in Cleveland. One of my favorite shows ever.
Murray Street is my favorite SY album. So great to see this!
Dirty?Washing Machine?A Thousand Leaves?
There was this conversation about wich SY album is the greatest. And this guy said "the best one is the first you've heard" and this is so fucking true and that makes SY so unique
@@69flop Experimental Jet Set Trash and No Star for me
If you like Murray Street you should check out a band called Helium because they inspired some of Murray Street ( the song Sunday was inspired by helium song called skeleton.)
And if you like helium you should check out polvo and Mary timony
Saw them 3 times on this tour. Several times after that too, but this tour seemed to me like the last time they looked like they were having fun.
The Jim O'Rourke era shows were the best; if you have not bothered with his music yet, it's some desert island material.
Thank you .
Thanks for posting!
Sorely missed- they gave us their all!
I love Murray Street. One of my favourites.
Always cool music from them, love this band.
Ah, the 2000's. When every stage director thought it would be cool to install a backdrop of home-sized LCD screens.
Love SY…swear every riff is sooo nostalgic 😭
Came here after watching Thurston’s band performance. I can’t comment on bass as unfortunately I don’t hear much of the bass lines played by Deb, but Lee’s guitar is definitely so much more pleasing to hear than James Sedwards’ one.
Wow. These are some great versions of Murray Street songs. 🤘👏
Cuando muera que pongan sonic youth a todo volumen en mi funeral!!!!
I watched half this concert when it aired (From Karen Revisited on). My TV didn't have good PBS reception, but I managed to fix it and enjoyed the rest of the set.
Seen SY with STP and Nirvana at a very small club in Las Vegas called Calamity Janes 1990 . Scott and Kurt worship SY at that time and honestly always did
The Best band l love sonic youth
As a 30-year long guitar player, I think I have lost about fifteen years of experience after watching this. I don't know how I made it through. I should have stopped after the first 30 seconds.🎉
Miss U!
I love Sonic Youth.
Steve is awesome
Great band.
That's amazing how close they got Karen Revisited (Karenology) to sound to the real thing... I've never heard them play it live before.
This is great (especially the Mariah Carey inclusion) but the volume is sooo low..
yeah the volume is too low, please fix
Wish someone would upload the other part of this tv taping with Wilco.
I miss her
The first Sonic Youth song I heard was Schizophrenia. I liked it. The first song I fell in love with was Candle. I have since been a Sonic Youth fan. Murray St. Is one of my favorite albums. I named my daughter Thurston, after Thurston Moore
I love SY and their long and varied discography, but I would prefer to hear them play live. They approached the same song in a different way each time they played it and this was positive and allowed them to maintain creativity and improvisation. They are and will continue to be my favorite band until the end of my days. The experimental approach they took with guitars is only comparable to Jimi Hendrix... in another universe perhaps they would have met and collaborated, but Hendrix left too soon.
Jim O’Rourke (Chicago, Illinois; 18 de enero de 1969) es un músico, compositor y productor estadounidense, asociado por largo tiempo a la escena experimental de su ciudad natal.
55 AÑOS.
Never heard any of these songs before. I missed an album or two
I don't have many "wants" in my life, and I like it like that.
However, that being said, I wouldn't mind Lee's semi-hollow(?) Jazzmaster(?) with a pickup behind the bridge that he plays on "Karenology."
made by Koll guitars
THURSTON JOSEPH MOORE
KIM ALTHEA GORDON
LEE M RANALDO
STEVE JAY SHELLEY
Don’t forget Jim O’Rourke on bass 🪩
cool
kim finde ich mega cool, sie ist eine top basistin. ok wir sind da.
I remember seeing them on SNL or Letterman. it was an amazing song. they used a hand saw at one point bending it and hitting it with a hammer. anyone else remember this? help me find a video!
YES!!! PJ Harvey had a guy doing that stuff for years. Danish band Under Byen use it on the song Det er mig der holder træerne sammen. Translation of band name and song- Under a City - It is I who holds the trees together.
Bull in the heather on letterman?
@@thereisnospectrum might've been 100%
What would Glenn branca and the grateful dead sound like if they worked together?
Does anyone have the set list?
So what exactly is the story of the song, "Mariah Carey and Author Doyle's hand cream"? Where did they get the name from?
sounds like music to me. some people are just stuck up pricks. can't please everyone.
If oasis reform before sonic youth I have given up on music
das ist für allen, er war leise nicht so wie wir sy, wir haben die kollegen am schiff abgenommen, kpmg bleibt leise.du bleibst eine tolle frau.
Was Sie sagen, ergibt keinen Sinn.
@@joserodrigues-vq8pz es ging um einen Freund aus boston, der leider früh an Krebs verstarb und, dass ich weiterhin die coolniss von sy schätze, Allen hat für den Saumagen der Arschlöcher gearbeitet, wer nicht?
if thats the black jm that got stolen then rip real pretty guitar
Ha, the one time you see someone in Sonic Youth playing a Strat, and if you look close it has a Jazzmaster neck on it. They always seemed to dress nicer and play nicer guitars on PBS compared to other live performances and TV appearances, Austin City Limits was the same.
that’s not a strat, it’s a Fender Sub-Sonic, a baritone guitar, and it’s not a jazzmaster neck on it.
@@watkinscopicat Interesting, have never seen anyone use a baritone before. Still looks like a Strat with a Jazzy neck, with those little scrolls in the headstock decal.
anybody know why thurston only puts his strap on at the last moment there?
There's a secret song @ 42:00, guys .. Like totally secret
I missed this band! 😢
Why did Thurston had to cheat on Kim
fate is cruel.
Probably because he fell in love with someone else. It happens and we can't help who we fall in love with. 🙂
none of your business
It does not sound shitty, you obviously have bad taste in music.
why is the sound so lousy?
Were they ever going to change their name to "Sonic Adults?" Sonic Middle-Aged Persons?
+Laurence Ruble ah boo
This maybe you'd know after these four years but they were seriously thinking to change their name after 1994 to call themselves Washing Machine, obviously the record label went nuts and finally they decided to keep that name for the 1995 release...
No.
Why do they always seem to go for crappy setlists .. I'm serious ...
wait...what?
@@guillermoramos744 serious , I love sy but they chose some weird live sets .. Not always, of course .
@@guillermoramos744 rain on tin is really annoying, empty page too.. Karen is superlative since its Lee singing ... Etc ... Why ?
They always play the newest stuff
You'd have to direct that question at one of Sonic Youth's (ex)members.
This band SUCKS
This is so bad, I bet guitar manufacturers pay them not to use their instruments. Gawd Awful! They must've all been angry at their music & choir teachers. Drumming's not bad though.
Please refrain from writing moronic comments in the future
Actually they broke the rules in such a specific, resonant way with so much palpaply ecstatic abandon that they helped change the rules of what sounded good.
I think there's a good argument to be made that Slash's guitar solo on 'Welcome to the Jungle' would not have sounded quite like that without the precedent set by the utterly vicious wave of 80's post-punk that included these nice people.
I wouldnt dare ask what you refer to as "good" music.. Journey? ASIA? Air Supply?
Liar. You love this band!
they both have fender endorsements you f tard. And why are you so angry speaking of...?
