Here's a brief segment of the interview from Mike Rowe's youtube channel. Truly, two of the most interesting men in internet media.

Derek Trucks interview today. 

I’ve never heard Derek Trucks talk, but damn that dude loves jazz. For those who didn’t watch, he pontificates on seminal jazz artists for a majority of the interview and it’s fucking fantastic. Rick is beaming the entire fucking interview. I’m pissed it only lasted an hour.

That was every bit as good as Beano Cook's preseason top 25 used to be in the 80's.

 

 

 

(it sucked)

So Notre Dame is #1?

I agree with Rick.  Will be seeing the Aristocrats on August 26th, and I’m really stoked for it.

 

I was just coming to post this.

Freaking great interview.

This may be my favorite Beato interview.

The bit with Kim Thayil at the end hopefully means there's a long form interview coming with him.  

I assume that was the PJ warehouse so I’m hoping for a Mike or Stone ep as well.

Hopefully he asks how they could write 3 albums of memorable riffs and then a dozen albums of snoozer dad rock.

Ha. Albums 4, 5 and 6 are probably my favorites.

Britney Spears What GIF

pretty common among big pj fans.  no code and yield are usually the faves.  still love ten etc. but if i'm putting a record on my turntable i'd likely choose no code.

…however, this was funny.
So, 👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻 on the gif usage. 😄

I didn't realize Pearl Jam release an album after Vitalogy.

I bought both Bleach and Louder than Love in the fall of '89 at Sound Exchange so I couldn't click on this interview fast enough. What a score for Beato.

That interview is great. Hopefully he has a 3rd interview coming to round out that Seattle trip.

I was a little late to the party as I was in a new school in the 9th grade in Richardson. I sort of fell in to the to cool school for cool crowd, but it also felt weird arriving from a nerd Lake Highlands perspective. 

I don't remember the order of ripping off Mercedes Benz ornaments, but it was probably

Ren & Stimpy

Smells Like Teen Spirit

Man In The Box

Alive

But Sound Garden's 'Badmotorfinger' is still the one that I will rock out.

It’s pretty good. I love Tool but MJK isn’t the most electric interview.

He's a bit of a bizarre guy for sure. I've seen some where he's pretty outgoing but was extremely dry

He seems to really know a lot about winemaking and he’s clearly passionate about it. He didn’t just slap his name on some swill. 

Has Pat Finnerty - the anti-Beato - been brought up in the thread yet?  The dude is freaking funny and does a series called "what makes this song stink"  on his youtube channel.  He recently did an episode on Machine Gun Kelly's "Emo Girl."  If you want a fun internet ride, go watch that episode and the update and then follow the path it takes you down.  It's honestly some of the most fun I have had on the internet.

Cliff notes: He says that if MGK is bringing back Pop Punk, he wants in on the gravy train.  He creates a fake pop punk band named "August is Falling," records an EP of formulaic emo pop punk songs with his buddies, and starts a grass roots YouTube campaign to get the first single sucked into the YouTube algorithm vortex.  Five days later, it's on Apple Music's "New Music Today" playlist.   

Not sure if posted . . . I appreciated the way Rick countered the implication that Wolfie VH might have been "guitar synching" to EVH's recorded solo on "Hot For Teacher" last weekend at the Taylor Hawkins concert.

Rick gets it.  He understands that both DNA and time in the room with what might have been the greatest rock guitarist of all time pretty much imbued Wolfie with the tools to play like his dad.  It's not fake.  The Griffeys and the Alous and the Cruz clan and the Bonds (ahem) didn't get a free pass in baseball.

It's tiring to see people constantly try to diminish natural talent and hard work.

 

I wasn't aware of this controversy, but why would anyone just assume WVH was faking it?

Edit:  I should have watched before commenting.  I think it was more of a compliment than an insult.  Asking if WVH could have been finger synching is basically saying Wolfie played that as well as his dad ever did.  Not sure there could be higher praise than that.

Wolf is fantastic. Loved his album, even though that kind of rock isn't my thing so much.

That was my take as well, at least for what I heard.  Well-written, well-performed, just not my perfect cup of tea.

Still was one of my most listened albums last year.

I'm a sucker for all things Van Halen.

Electric? No. Fascinating? Hells yeah. MJK is a really interesting guy, and you can tell that even though Beato's getting him to open up, he still tests Beato. Which Rick passes with flying colors.

It definitely wasn't the MJK Comedy Hour but it was interesting to me to see inside his mind.

About 2/3 of the way through this one now. This one's a bit more entertaining, a little less enlightening than the MJK interview. Mostly entertaining because of Krist dropping dry one-liners every two minutes. Less interesting because it's a lot of reminiscing about "Oh yeah, Chris and Hiro lived in this shitty apartment. I'd go over with an onion in my belt, which was the fashion at the time..."

Regarding YouTube channels.

I would have to think, if we’re talking music only - and the love and interest in it, Beato’s channel would have to be the most important.

His channel is just so meaningful to me.

Agreed 100%.   And damn did it get dusty when he was talking about his friend that passed away.

I too base all of my opinions on youtube videos I watch made by people who are irrelevant outside of boomer-filled elitist online forums

 

There's always somebody to bitch about something.  I don't make it a habit of watching Beato's videos, but I've seen a bunch, and he strikes me as an educated, talented musician who is truly interested in his subject matter.  I'm not sure what's wrong with that.
