- It took us a few seasons to get this episode going but it’s worth the wait. Clocking in at just under 25 minutes it’s a mini documentary about the relationship between skateboarders and the music they listen to and create. Like Jake Phelps says: “We’re skateboarders, the music exudes from our bodies”.

Skateboarding & punk rock changed my life. Nothing else to say.
Ditto.
@@jimmytgoose476 Keep rolling. Rat Bones.
Jake Phelps,still watching RIP
Loveletters make me feel good about being old.
Fuck yeah, i can barley skate anymore and that bums me out to no end but fuck man we did it best back then and it just is not as cool now, at least to me.
@@dandelcastillo8176 When things get corporate, soul withers.
I'm 16
Now that we're old and ugly. Middle aged and hurting. Loveletters with Jeff Grosso will remind you of the salad days. The best of days.

benihana your mama, for me.
She missed my back salad, but I darkslid hers. She cavemanned my coffin. The board's my hearse. She backlipped my pipe. I was a casper. I fingerflipped her roastbeef and I came back disaster."👻
Def the most enjoyable episode to date. Thank you Mr.Grosso for making this happen. Skating & Punk/HxC were everything to me growing up in the 80's & still are.
Jeff Grosso sits down with some of the legends of Skate Rock to talk about the connection between music and skateboarding! What music do you listen to when you skate?
Vans From punk to skweee👌
Agent Orange,JFA,tales of terror
no rap? seriously? hip hop and skateboarding go hand in hand just as much as punk and skateboarding. and hell, if you ask me, the hip hop groups that tommy g mentioned were all punk as fuck!
We agree 100%... but this episode was focussed on the idea of Skate Rock as it pertains to kids in the early 80's starting their own bands and being influenced to do that by skating. That wasn't really happening with rap- of course skaters have always listened to rap but not many skaters were influenced to start rapping (Jereme Rogers notwithstanding).
club tropicana wham
Punk Rock is the official skateboarding music genre
I think metal fits better but that's how I like it.
@@Skellotronix thrash metal is just faster punk really. those bands were all influenced by punk admittedly.
Maybe on the Westcoast... I've been skating since 89 , I've never listened to any punk other than what was in the background of skate videos.
@@Skellotronixlol no
Good rock, new wave/punk, rap and all metal are skate music❤
The best episode of the lettters! Thrasher skate rock compilations introduced me to a lot of those classic skate punk bands.
INDEED
Thanks for the shoutout, Rodrigo! We're hyped that you loved this episode! Feel free to watch more Loveletters videos here: bit.ly/2fMu92X

loved this episode Vans
Vans bb
Mo Fo is a Skate Rock legend!! Thanks for getting this kinda music out to us who could not find it anywhere. Thrasher was my only place get skate gear and Punk/Hardcore music.
Such a killer episode. MoFo rules! Skate Rock Volume 2 is still one of my favorite all time records, and My Dad Butch too.
Damn, to be young again. So worth it to be almost 50 and to grow up during that period. Wait, I still haven't grown up... Sucks that I ditched/lost my ST shirt with Lance's drawing somewhere along the path of life. Thanks to Grosso, skateboarding and loud music - my lifesavers.
The ST album with Institutionalized is pure gold, an epic release.
Thrasher Skate Rock vol 5 was one of my first tapes along with Beastie boys licensed to ill. First place I heard SNFU who were from my province! Visiting the bad again is still one of my favourite SNFU tunes! All killer, no filler on that tape! Thank you Thrasher!
Oh man absolutely! I used to love BMXing to music, as kids in the 80's my friend's Dad built a huge ramp, it was so heavy and we would roll it out on the road, put out tape player (lol yeh tape player) and BMX all day long freestyle, every time a car came past we had to move the ramp, dude great times!! My hats off to all you guys out there doing it today, whether skate boarding, BMX, Surf, keep rocking your boards and the music! Also I'm thinking of building an 80's freestyle bike, man can't wait to start project, all the best! Live the Passion!

Anything off of Mystic Records... That California snotty punk... Ahhh the memories of a boom box, ramps, backyard sessions and street circa 1984-1995 -ish... Enjoy your youth while you can...
I enjoyed the thrasher ads on skate rock and all the rad skate photos of unknown skateboarders
Thanks for watching, Jason and we're glad that you enjoyed the video! If you haven't already, feel free to catch more Jeff Grosso videos here: bit.ly/2h2DBDf
The only mention of Anthrax I noticed was somebody in JFA was wearing a "not" hat..... great skate band that actually skated
Shout out to every one revisiting this series, miss this series and miss the grosso man.
Thanks for the memories! You continue to make me smile Grosso!
"It's a bunch of kids rebelling against long hair and peace and love." One of the true definitions of punk.
That didnt last long, thankfully .
Can we talk about how the tony hawk pro skater 1 and 2 soundtracks killed it
hookilledtobymilder nah
10/10 episode. Thank you Grosso, Vans and everyone involved.
Thanks utterlybrilliant, glad you liked our documentary! Music will always be a part of skateboarding, and we're lucky to have Grosso spelling that fact out for us. You can see more rock content here: bit.ly/2gQ5QoG
Hands down the best episode so far.
Thanks for watching and commenting, Lisa! Hopefully you enjoyed the sick tunes in this episode as well! If you haven't already, feel free to catch more Grosso videos here: bit.ly/2lICpDd
It would be nice to see a "Skate Rock" episode 2...just saying. There is a lot of good punk/metal coming out constantly, and perspective out there. Thanks for the letters
Weezer,
Green Day,
Papa Roach,
Red Hot Chilli Peppers.
@@esk8jaimes LOL fuck NO!
The Big Boys are the Shit! Rip Buscuit
Such a dope Episode! Mahalo guys you guys killed it once again!!!!!

Thanks for waiting, Ramiro! We're stoked that you enjoyed the video as much as we did! Feel free to catch all of Grosso's episodes here: bit.ly/2fMu92X
My brother was hard into skating during that time in socal. His group didn't listen to punk. They listened to Led Zeppelin,Sabbath, Van Halen, AC/DC, ect....
They missed out .
For me and my friends skating on the east coast in the 80's, it was all about rap. We were blasting RUN DMC, Beastie Boys & LL COOl J. At that time, I just couldn't comprehend the music that west coast skaters always listened to.
"to classify is to control" - Jake Phelps
This is my next tattoo.
It seems everyone wants to label everyone...
“no labels!” *permanently labels self*
poetic.
Fuck yeah!!! So many bands from back in the day! What a trip down memory lane!
Skating and improvised music are so similar. Playing over the changes to a tune is just like skating a spot: you take what you do and apply it to the new situation while trying to leave yourself open to new ideas as you go.
Loveletters is one of my favorite things. Some of it is a few years before I started skating so it's not completely unknown and I get to learn a little. Plus, Grosso has always been a favorite.
We're glad you enjoy the episodes, Devin! Great to hear from a skating fan! If you haven't seen all of the Jeff Grosso videos, feel free to check them out here: bit.ly/2h6Ez0v
+Vans I commented quite a bit on this episode and you never thanked me
Thank you?
IM ALL OVER THIS
the recap in the ending is sublime.
it's 'walk, don't run' by the ventures.... unless I missed something else
Wow, what a time to be a skateboarder! Wtf how can I miss what I never experienced??
It's never too late to start! And if you want to get the full experience, check out some more awesome clips here: bit.ly/2gQ3DcA
This is awesome I love this documentary but where is agent orange there was just one picture I know agent orange was a good part of skate punk rock
Rest in Power Jeff. You re skateboarding. Love you forever
As Anton Newcombe said "when he saw Paul McCartney and the Beatles, there was nothing he could do to try and be like him because no one could be like them. But when he saw the punk movement, he knew he could be a better musician than these idiots." It was an endearing comment.
Was thinking recently that of all the love letters episodes(I've watched everyone of them 9-10 times each)that there hasn't been one on MUSIC!!Thanks Love Letters,awesome ep.
Thanks, Russell! Glad you're as hyped on this episode as us. If you haven't already, get caught up with the rest of Grosso's Loveletters here: bit.ly/2gISCuy
sweeeet
Sincere thanks for blesssing us with this history and knowledge. Loveletters have connected so many dots for me in my desire to understand the history of what I love. This will be re-watched many times by myself and countless others. Excellent production value as well. Respect to all involved. I type this doozy with painkillers in my veins because I took 6 staples to the head from a slam at Tempe skatepark this morning. Fuck I love skateboarding.
Again, another brilliant sermon from the pulpit of Mr Grosso and crew. Word.
GROSSO you are a legend bro thank you for this..
Glad you enjoyed this video, 91750fast! Keep following us to catch more Grosso videos in the future! Feel free to watch all of Jeff's videos here: bit.ly/2gf9yVS
This was a super great episode. I got into some new bands thanks to you Jeff.
Watch this and it'll make you wanna live again!!! leave all the bull and do something within your means. We're a band in La Habra of which the drummer and i started skating before we played together. It just works to skate and play. I'm a 32 year old father of two, husband and a handyman. Scraping by! Sucess is an illusion and we need to remember that. BE YOU! live your life and skate if you love it !!! THATS IT!

@@vans Do you guys have the full Loveletters interviews stored somewhere? That would be really cool to see.
I was at skatopia when that dude threw the seat in the bowl lol almost killed the other guy. That place would have some epic shows when the bowl bashes would happen. Hell I even saw youth brigade,agent orange,and gwar there.
that's what happens when you mix punk rock and skateboarding together
JFA 98
The only interview question i have seen henry rollins enjoy answering
best episode so far.
My Dad got to take me to get a haircut only one time, in 1992. The barber had ‘scater cut’ on the letter board and I was all over it. Half shaved, other side down to my chin. I had no idea it was the ‘faction cut’ . Anyways, my mom never let my dad take me to get a haircut again lol. Thanks Dad.
"horrible right-wing freak of a piece of shit" haha gotta love Friedman
Lol the fuck is your problem? Ted Nugent is a crazy fucking idiot. Right wing or not you can't deny that shit.
He got it in one sentence!
Amazing!!! Tommy G. with the hip-Hop drops! Gratitude and RIP to Jake P. for the BAD BRAINS reference! Faith/VOID, Marginal Man and Government Issue too for us East Coast/DMV heads!
MisterElement - F yeah, G.I. was the best.
Outstanding video. Really brings back some memories. No Tull though!
Downhill a hundred miles and never fall, then hear the bones break on a plywood wall-Jerry’s Kidz, c. 1980.

Good Job Jeff...thanks!
watching this really reminds me of the age gap between Grosso and my generation (90s kid) cuz we got into skating through warped tour and THPS and the pop punk scene that cultivated outta the grunge and skate rock, and when we got a little older we went back and found a lot of the shit covered in this episode.
A LOT of people kinda discredit shit like that cuz that's also when punk, and the skate subculture became commercialized...but like who gives a shit if Blink-182 is selling mccdonalds toys and on TRL and shit, it was still the outlet we found that allowed us to dig deeper and find The F.U.'s and Minor Threat.
THIS IS TECHNOLOGY ON THE EDGE!!
RKL, real skate rock.
that was so amazing. THANK YOU
Husker Du! MN represent!
Did any of HD skate ?
I pray thrasher will re
Rerelease those old rekkids SOOOOO MUCH! Please, if u got pull, help make it happen!!! Love yr shit, Grosso.
-PDX Johnny, skating since whenever per welinder first had a "$treet" board. (Was my first "real" after a splintery evil nash executioner that delaminated after a jump ramp landing!) Thanks for the great info n memories. Pls keep em coming. They make my morning shit even better.
phelps was so fockin high in this interview, rip in piece old man.
I think Pushead's Puszone in Thrasher was a huge influence.
Hahaha. He pulled no punches in describing Ted.....RIP Grosso.
music and skating are one and the same. intense love. fear. charging.
DK, minutemen and SNFU are my favorite
Art and Steve Godoy surely deserve mention in any Skate Rock conversation.
thank you for yet an other excellent episode!
One of the best yet.
Done it again chaps. Loved it!! Get something done on the papas brothers the would be amazing :-D
I was born 20 years to late man
Skateboarding is its own genre of music, made on a very special instrument.

Holy Shit! Best episode ever!
Terry Nails! Who knew? And I thought it was Olsen all along.
Funny, people would dispute whether punk rock started in England or The United States. But skateboarders started it 👍
If it wasn't for Thrasher magazine nobody would have heard punk rock.
🤣🤣🤣
Yeah.....riiiiight....
Nobody mentions Underdog? I know they talked to Chuck, but Underdog had a song called “Frontside Grind”!!! Anyway, great episode. When I moved to Florida and started skating in 1985-1986, we listened to Master of Puppets, Motörhead and Peace Sells, But Who’s Buying? Black Flag, Suicidal and Dead Kennedys too.
Thanks! especially like the Jethro Tull!
From i was 7 years old,to 21-skateboarding was EVERYTHING to me(still is!),i mean,from the morning on i couldnt wait to the School was finished,started to ditch School as i grew older,and just skatined full Power all the time,and thinking of how to do that and that tricks,in the evening-it was a 24/7 thing to me-and because of that my knees got busted when i was about 20,still trying to skate...i found out i couldnt,cause it only got worse as my thighs got this inflammaroty chronis muscle cramps,which i still suffer from at age 43-i had to walk With crutches,to try to not get as painfully cramped up-and today,22 years later,i still cant walk more than a hour(tops!)a day,and i now have a cramp in my ass so i cant sit on it-and i still havent found anything out of interest to do,cause the feeling you get from SK8ING is so intense..)...So my life pretty much is to lay on the side of my body in bed,doing nothing-GREAT!
My fav. Thing to watch.
dude said KInghorse!
They were my first show.
had no idea Steve Olson was in the joneses, that was my sh*t!
mind blown
Yep very early version of the Joneses. Around the time the BYO compilation came out.
Best episode ever!
TED Nugent is still a fucking legend.
Glen E is just a loser Bolshevik.
Bellend, not legend .
Damn it Grosso! You already got me twice with that Outro...
Well thank you Terry Nails ...
the love letters are never long enough
AGENT ORANGE
Steve Olson was in the Jonses???
My thoughts exactly when I saw that 😮 I mean I’ve only been listening to them since what 1985? Whenever that BYO comp came out 😂
Hell yeah! Skate Rock! Im still all about THE FACTION S.J.! Still the best IMO. Great episode !! :)
