If you dig that, might I recommend looking into Jeanette's discog. Spanish artist that's perhaps not as Mod as Margo, but a pretty similar vibe overall. Romantic balladry, soft vocals, great orchestral instrumentation; its certainly a vibe regardless :)
@@rainbow-jw3og Here in South america people go to the airport and the hotels to meet their favorite artists and give them gifts or just talk to them. I went to the hotel before they left my country and Molly came out to talk to us and took some pictures!
@@nomoresnacks Most festivals here put all the artists in the same hotel. It's just a matter of waiting for a band member to post a pic of the hotel or the view on instagram to know where they are.
That’s crazy! They came into the coffee shop I work at when they were in SLC and I was so stoked just to talk to them and make them coffees, very nice band
It should have probably left 2 songs out of the record and not get too crazy with the coke in order to not overextend with pointless jams and arrangements great songs like All around the world. Something similar happened with the second Stone Roses album. But now some people say that if Be Here now would have included some of the B sides that they included in The Masterplan that then it would have been the third consecutive classic album by Oasis
I'm easily old enough to be their father, but I think Alvvays is a great band, and I'm really glad to see they have such great [which is to say kinda old school] taste. And hey - go Leafs go.
I love Alvvays, I started listening to them like in 2015 and they have been one of my favorite bands ever since. I love their sound and their whole aesthetic as a band. Their songs are so catchy and filled with nostalgia. My favorite song is "Party Police", i think its one of those perfect songs structurally and sonically. I love the structure because its so simple, I like simple songs, and lot of Alvvay's music is simple like that. Molly's vocals are so blissful to listen to, she has a very young and childish style of singing which i very much enjoy.
I remember queuing up outside HMV in Manchester to buy it on the day it was released. I wanted to love it but i was disappointed. It must be 20 years since I last listened to it. Think I’ll give it another spin soon.
I remember watching wallows do what’s in their bag and alvvays was one of the bands featured and are now one of my favorite artists. I guess it’s nice coming full circle and seeing them do this now
Man every time I watch one of these videos I am reminded as a music junkie how much depth I lack in taste from a classic music standpoint. 😂😂 also, as for Alvvays, In Undertow is an amazing song.
Martin Newell? DID NOT see that coming. Big fan here. Especially of his poems, stories and his web log about 15 or so years ago. Fantastic story teller.
It was so neat seeing Alec get Enya's 'Shepherd Moons', and that certainly was my own introduction to Enya back in 1991. But three years later, I finally listened to 'Watermark', which was her 1988 album that came before 'Shepherd Moons', and was amazed that, aside for the upbeat 'Orinoco Flow', it was quite a dark and moody affair of an album. I found it a difficult listen many times, but it did get me through a lot of heartbreak. To this day, 'Watermark' remains my personal favorite, though I still absolutely love 'Shepherd Moons'.
"Someone loved it and owned it" I loved that line, I had to rewind the video to hear it several times haha. I love used records, I try to imagine what was the last time it was played, what kind of people owned it. If only records could speak and tell us stories about their past owners.
"Jesus of Cool" was renamed "Pure Pop for Now People" for the U.S. audience. I actually like the latter name better, it is definitely more descriptive of the album's music. After listening to "Blue Rev" a thousand times, I'm shocked that they didn't pick out a Smiths album.
Nice to see them select several of my favorites (The Who, Byrds, Fall, Margo Guryan) but wow, Molly knows Martin Newell!! If she doesn't already have it, she needs The Greatest Living Englishman on LP.
I had a bunch of bootlegs of Oasis at the Roseland Ballroom from 1997 during the Be Here Now Tour. Tthe wall of guitar, the vocals...you could feel the cocaine through your earphones...butloved it and still do. It was overhyped, over the top, but utterly amazing.
Be Here Now is a terrific rock album if you don't try too hard to overanalyze it. Appreciate that you could put THAT many guitar tracks onto an album from a pure standpoint of human feat.
Agreed. Just like... enjoy it for what it is and just have fun with it. That's my response to anyone who feels they have a 'scathing take' on Oasis lol.
Martin Newell, TV Personalities and the Fall! those are 3 AMAZING picks. Guess I'll go listen to what this band Alvvays sounds like now. Never heard of them till now but I am optemistic
Be Here Now reminds me of Blue Rev in some ways. The third album of both bands. In both cases, compared to previous releases, more washy sounding backing guitars and vocals that are difficult to make out.
Love that they buy records the way I do, taking wild chances, buying an album you only know one song off, getting a CD without even having a CD player. I feel very seen here by a band I love.
I think we all know who really gave us the definitive rendition of "Send in the Clowns" ... the one and only Herschel Shmoikel Pinchas Yerucham Krustofsky, aka Krusty
Lovely folks! I met these two post gig in 2014 when they toured Britain. I had a lovely chat with them and Kerry in Cambridge. I definitely love Enya,The Fall and The Byrds, however i never got Oasis whatsoever. But I’ll park that one and concentrate on Alvvays as a band.

"Their songs are sort of cloud-parting and could be put on at any time. It transports you to this happy place." I say the same thing about Alvvays!
The whole time I'm like dude Molly, your songs are wayy better
I love the phrase “cloud-parting” to describe a sound or music vibe. Such a perfect descriptor!
thought the same thing when she said that!
Did she ever get married to that guy? Artie I think his name was?
The Byrds and Alvvays are both magical bands with a certain special sound that no one else can quite duplicate. I adore them both.
You can really tell how deep the two of them are into music
No wonder their music is so rich and interesting
It’s well informed
hi

james.
Blue Rev was the indie album of 2022!
Amazing dope top two.
Margo Guryan is exactly what i searching for in months. Whisper vocals, gentle arrangement, 60's atmosphere. Great, thank you, Alvvays

You’d like Jessica Pratt
She’s the female Nilsson
You want more? Look for "Titanic Rising" (Weyes Blood), the first two records from Broadcast, Vashti Bunyan, Julia Holters "Loud City Song"...
@@palo4098 oh, thank you, i will check out that artist
I met molly a few months ago and I still can't believe how amazing and lovely she is
How did you meet her? :D

Be Here Now is such a solid album. Fade In-Out one of my favorite Oasis songs of all time
No.
every oasis album trash. derivative asf
@@arlofleenor1838all music is derivative
@@alenshirvanyan473 especially oasis
@@arlofleenor1838 yep, there’s a line between derivative and just straight up one trick pony copying, which is what Oasis have built their career on.
I admire their fidelity to Canadian music…and to the tradition of Canadian humour 🇨🇦😆

Love Alvvays, love this piece, but was so ready for Alec to say, "see what Schnabel has to bring to the table."
Be Here Now is an underrated and misunderstood Oasis album. That is a great pick
Agree!
I know it’s so over the top it makes for a fun album
I remember queuing up outside HMV in Manchester to buy it on the day it was released. I wanted to love it but i was disappointed.

they’re such amazing people, i’ve had to the luck of meeting them and seeing them 3 times in 2022 and i’ll be seeing them 4 times this year :)
She has such a great voice. Awesome band.
Damn I'm in that Amoeba all the time! that would be nice to bump into Molly and Alec randomly lol
It is ALVVAYS great seeing them.
I attended their gig in Singapore and they started the show with the intro of Enya's 'The River Sings'. You can tell how much Alec adores her music!
hi fellow singaporean alvvays fan
Though I like them all and have been on board since '95 Be Here Now has always been my favorite Oasis record. There are dozens of us!
Using Velveteen for the credits >>>
Such an informative little video on their tastes! Alvvays forever 💯
Martin Newell? DID NOT see that coming. Big fan here. Especially of his poems, stories and his web log about 15 or so years ago. Fantastic story teller.
I love this band ❤️ can't wait to see them in Primavera Sound
She knows that "Be Here Now" was slept on by the rest of the world outside of the UK. Great album.
Blue Rev was my favorite album of 2022.

Absolute gems from a band I love so much, thank you very much Amoeba
Margo Guryan (R.I.P.) & Martin Newell are two of my favorite artists! I hope this video will make them a few new fans.
'be here now' came out just at the right time. good times, good days.
The critical rexamination of 'Be Here Now' has arrived, and I am HERE for it... d'you know what I mean??
I love "Be Here Now"... very underrated album
Edifice, haughty, ruddy; that guy has some vocabulary.
i love this band so much. Anything they sign off on, i'll give it a try!
I GASPED WHEN I SAW THE THUMBNAIL AND GOT HAPPY WHEN I SAW IT'S ACTUALLY ALVVAYS ON AMOEBA 😭
Same 😹
My favorite band since 2015. A nice bunch too
My favorite Oasis album. Bought this first and then checked earlier catalogue
Bend Sinister, yes! My favourite Fall album.
Glad to see they love Margo Guryan, Judy Collins and The Mighty Fall
I love Blue Rev. The band get even more kudos from me for saying Be Here Now is great 👍🏻
I saw the Fall in concert in 1982. Great band, they were very prolific in their music output.. Mark E Smith was a good frontman for the band.
ya think?
@@drssexy2142 Yes i do, and i own a cd boxed set of their music. So there !
Nice selections. The Byrds, Who and the unsurpassed Fall.
The shout out to David Crosby was quite timely. Well done.
i love alvvays so much it brings me to tears
Pretty sweet episode here with some of my all-time favorite bands. And that’s the best Who album ever, of course. 👏🏻👏🏻🏆
Molly is 100% right about Be Here Now. The first four Oasis albums, including The Masterplan, are all near perfect.
I wish more people showed used/bargain bin records on this series. Amoeba should have a used spin-off of "What's in my Bag"
I’m glad you guys mentioned Endless Wire. That is my favorite Lightfoot album by far, and one of my favorites overall! Great taste!
The Who Sells Out is a classic!! Some funny tracks. And some seriously awesome rock tracks.
Nice to see them select several of my favorites (The Who, Byrds, Fall, Margo Guryan) but wow, Molly knows Martin Newell!! If she doesn't already have it, she needs The Greatest Living Englishman on LP.
Glad to see some love for The Fall
Love Martin Newell & Cleaners! Great taste Molly!

I just finished watching their KEXP set. Wasn’t expecting to also see them here.
Super excited to see them this year!
Who else saw the Watery Domestic EP chillin in Alec’s stack near the end?
For “Be Here Now”, I’M MAD FOR IT!!
Always Alvvays. Just saw them last night (3 March 23) in Montreal. Lovely.
Jesus... Margo Guryan and Martin Newell right off the bat. No wonder I love this band, we have the same influences.
Martin Newell, TV Personalities and the Fall! those are 3 AMAZING picks. Guess I'll go listen to what this band Alvvays sounds like now. Never heard of them till now but I am optemistic
I was going to say the same thing-haha! Listen to their latest output, Blue Rev-great album!
Molly is such a deadpan smartass. Love it
My god!! Molly is so beautiful, Im in love with her!
Such a great band, and great picks too. After another full year of wonderful music, “Blue Rev” is still my fave of 2022. Bravo you guys.
That Lightfoot album is magic!
Be Here Now is my favorite Oasis. I feel the same, overhated. Some super fun picks. Love this series
Be here now is a masterpiece
Alvvays!
Alec and molly are the best tag!
$300 for a Crosley?!?
Good episode. I just discovered Alvvays and have been enjoying them.

Immediately wanna check this band out for buying a Margo Guryan album!
Could watch this all day
Be Here Now was my first album, on cassette, aged seven.
God, I've been waiting for this for so long :')

thanks for the samples you guys 🖤
Guitar of so much indie Canadian music is indebted to The Byrds @ 7:09 great to see Alvvays acknowledge
it’s so crazy how similar me and alec’s music choices are 😭 need his spotify playlists fr
Been waiting for them to do this, can’t wait to watch this after work, gahd dahmn
The Who Sell Out is a classic
My personal favorite Who record.
Molly picking Be Here Now 😍
Blue Rev is the best album of the year
Molly holding an Oasis record.. I can just die now.. I can't top this.
Be Here Now got me into Oasis and I haven't looked back
Love Alvvays and love Oasis too
Enya 👌🏼 🔥
top choice on Be Here Now, "Girl in the Dirty Shirt" is so lovely.
I love you Molly!!!
Great to see you guys in digital media again 🎉❤️
I recently found this band and I really liked their songs.
Damnnn Alvvays. Grew up listening to this group
exceptionally good taste these two
