Mogwai - What's in My Bag?

[@robindreier9796]

I have come to realize that I really want to become a musician mostly so that I can go to Amoeba and hope to 'star' in Whats in my bag. Thats how much I love this series.

[@SDXStudio]

You could always just start a youtube series of yourself, and show off your hauls from the record store. Do it in reverse!

[@rickmccain5316]

Dude, I think the same! That would be awesome!

[@ChristinaGina]

This is the best series on youtube

[@benibbotson2014]

Agreed.

[@djtaitai]

Guests (like him) with unique music taste and refreshing sense of humor = my favorite WIMBs

[@Luschan]

Confession: Sometimes when I browse record stores, I pretend I’m picking things out for a “What’s in my Bag” and consider what I’d say about them.

[@omaramark]

Such a great series, long may it run, and Stuart one of the best ever guests - wonderfully open selections.

[@diosrightcalfmuscle4090]

What a lovely guy

[@philmole1209]

I interviewed Stuart many years ago when Mogwai were on their first US tour - I believe it was outside the old Lounge Axe. He was a very young guy then, and it seems that he still has all the youthful enthusiasm I remember seeing in him then. That's a nice trick to pull off!

[@whatimlisteningto3420]

MASSIVE fucking respect for showing a Third Eye Foundation record on this show. Massively underrated artist. Kudos Stuart

[@Tim1888-u5s]

Mogwai would definitly be in my bag. I agree about the Sonic Youth album. Underrated gem.

[@regirockplays]

I think that if you had Madlib as a guest his video would be 6 hours long.

[@guillll]

It would only feature him looking at every single record in the shop and saying "I already have that" every time.

[@stophumpingthelaser]

i laughed so loud...

[@jacksmirkingrevenge]

I still remember seeing Mogwai live for the first time back in 2001. After the show, they were all nice enough to sign my vinyl copy of Rock Action. Great guys!

[@fedec532]

Wow what to say, the choices made are absolute masterpieces of their kind. This channel is one of the absolute best sincere compliments. Good evening everyone a hug from Italy

[@freddyalvarez5871]

Mogwai is my life soundtrack!🙌🎸

[@sharktroubles]

No wonder Mogwai's so fantastic; he has impeccable tastes in music.

[@BANGERSLLC]

Loved this episode what a genuine and cool guy

[@Pamastrike]

Well said! NYC and flowers is so underrated. Amazing album, one of their best for me

[@forest_swords]

Third Eye Foundation ♥

[@emptysresponse]

Mogwai are utterly phenomenal. Saw them live earlier this year for the 2nd time. They blew my mind. I was on a blissful 'shroom dose and in the front row with my friend who is from a part of Scotland not far from Glasgow. Stuart kept looking at me because I was very vocal and appreciative between songs. He's a great guy.

[@cheesecakelasagna]

Good timing as I've been binging on Mogwai lately!

[@vb2388]

Bring Jonny Greenwood here..

[@ThatOneGuy7550]

Or the whole of Radiohead.

[@DulceHoward]

YES!! it'd be so interesting

[@harperlee8516]

Pleeeeeeaaaaase, that would be amazing

[@manicmandownup]

He’d just pick obscure Indian music

[@jeffreylower9469]

I could totally see Jonny just grabbing an album of a man banging two rocks together.

[@josephblumenberg6574]

That Alan Lomax collection looks awesome

[@viniciuseneas4036]

Stuart used that Cure T-shirt when Mogwai was playing live at KEXP. Nice!

[@Humanshieldchorus00]

I love this man. Met him, he's. total gent . A fucking genius

[@listenhealthily]

I bumped into Stuart a few years ago in a Tesco supermarket in Edinburgh. I noticed he had about 10 boxes of triple choc muffins in his basket so I couldnt resist edging up close to him and saying 'Like yer muffins do ya mate'? He looked at me with a smiling face and said 'Mind yer own business yer twat'. I then edged away.

[@hollyspry5993]

😂😂😂

[@teethgrinder83]

Hahaha me and my girlfriend are travelling down from Aberdeen to Edinburgh to see them next week, maybe ill take a box of muffins.... 😁

[@listenhealthily]

Yeah, that's Tesco Triple Choc 4-pack. £1.20 per pack at the moment. You could always bring over a box to my place for a cup of tea b4 the gig. I'm central.

[@listenhealthily]

Then again, maybe not. I've just seen your liked videos list.

[@teethgrinder83]

Ron Jitter gotta be more specific bud-is it because im a leftist? Or because....honestly ive no idea what your problem is but not to worry, like I said im going to see them with my partner so..... Yeah, 3's a crowed etc etc Edit-yup i reckon me and my GF definitely pass on the offer, i got bored of whitesnake at 10

[@johnclements7828]

After watching this episode when it came out, I actually bought the Going Underground book for my Kindle and couldn't put it down. Such an excellent read. Thanks for the recommendation, Stuart!

[@carterwatson1715]

Cool love this series

[@Sloth131987]

major ups for showcasing third eye foundation - his new album is being oooooh so slept-on. almost all the TEF stuff is mint and all the stuff under his birth name is simply the best! YESSSsss!

[@RagsYooTube]

Watched a lot of these, this is my favourite

[@lockyp204]

Lovely Scottish charm. And what a band !

[@jopedrop]

anyone else feels that Rock Action is immensely underrated? 2 Rights Make 1 Wrong is their best song imo

[@upexus2076]

Take Me Somewhere Nice and You Don't Jesus are also good songs off of that

[@tango31313]

The route dude rock performance of that track is my favorite live song ever

[@mariselanahui8365]

Absolutely agree

[@julian.castro18]

all their records are underrated except for Young Team, which I think is kinda overrated.

[@DasUberCow]

Awesome! Love Mogwai, surprising to see a lot of gospel and stuff, but definitely inspiring to get out of my musical comfort zone.

[@mariselanahui8365]

I love him!!❤ Stuart is so lovely😍 Mogwai forever❤🙌

[@Basham86]

This is one of the best what's in my bags I've seen

[@jackjude]

This is channel has all the correct artists on it.

[@franlovelsimic8421]

Mogwai, super cool!

[@nikolademitri731]

Love Mogwai! Great picks, man! ✌🏼

[@pauleiwalsh]

Absolutely brill picks

[@moordhaus]

Been waiting for this one. Nice work Amoeba! One of my favorite albums of all time is Mogwai's EP+3..Now, you have to get Oxbow on here!

[@mnchls]

goddamn Stu is such a sweetheart. very chill and funny and passionate. would have loved to have the other gents in the band featured here as well!

[@MobySlick]

Love his music with mogwai

[@nnmci]

so nice to see sleater-kinney and nin in his selection

[@_pulyx]

I love this man

[@juderichards6588]

MOGWAI FOR FUCKING LIFE!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@anthonychilds8193]

Was so excited when I saw him checking Third Eye Foundation during the opening montage. Mogwai still ranks #1 loudest concert I've been to.

[@ninukajaparidze]

Fun fact: Sleater Kinney album art is done by Agi from The Pastels (another Scottish band)

[@mrembe9]

I like him!! He is so interesting and unique.

[@mrembe9]

And funny, humble. They do give you to much food here. There's an inner battle..eat your food. Clean plate club.

[@reekeekee963]

Mogwai is so good

[@samuelblinne6040]

Great picks

[@faunoram]

Inrteresting to know that Stuart is a fan of roots and country blues !

[@mosshark]

Stuart: the best

[@Pillgrim1981]

So glad to finally see a Matt Elliot recommendation. The guy is a monster talent and just does not get the recognition he deserves. He did a remix for Mogwai once, a noisey renditon of A Cheery Cave...great stuff

[@Pillgrim1981]

Cheery Wave of course

[@thestud2]

Jerry Goldsmith GOAT. And it is a didgeridoo, conk shell, and a 15th century horn is the sound of the Alien.

[@akf2000]

holy shit the Mogs have made it to My Bag

[@hockeytart]

Super charming.

[@arnowillekes7979]

Cool guy and choices!

[@squareinsquare2078]

My favourite Mogwai track is Tracey. Or No Medicine for Regret.

[@ecscottindiana]

i am a big wet slut for "travel is dangerous"

[@davilopes5925]

I love 2 rights make 1 wrong.

[@abelisraelcruzayuso4682]

And he wore the t-shirt during their latest KEXP session...

[@CharlesDeMar7]

Long live Mogwai 🤙

[@enkhjien]

ilysm mogwai 😭

[@samuelblinne6040]

Awesome

[@LamiaceaeMW]

Wow, Stuart likes a lot of the same music I do! Perhaps that makes sense that I would like Mogwai!

[@teethgrinder83]

Seeing them next week in Edinburgh-csnt wait!!!! Im 35 and been listening to them since I was 16-18 and never got the chance even though im from Aberdeen/Scotland but my wonderful girlfriend got us a ticket for 22 nd August in Edinburgh-i cant wait! Im like a kid at Xmas haha

[@Wh1tefox41]

Like a kid at Xmas Steps maybe?

[@davidcowan4942]

Was there on the 22nd at Leith theatre. Was living in Leith at the time and it was also my birthday. Great memories

[@teethgrinder83]

@@davidcowan4942 it was a brilliant gig wasn't it-now I'm looking forward to when I can get a chance to see them again haha

[@davidcowan4942]

@@teethgrinder83 Sure was. In the old days they Always used to finish with the sublime my father my king and was so happy they did again that night.

[@teethgrinder83]

@@davidcowan4942 I know, that made me happy too-i was also really happy they played "new paths to helicon PT 1", I love that song so much. I was looking at the set list for the following day and we were lucky because they didn't play "my father" on the 23rd so we went on the right night lol although they played "Mogwai fear Satan" on the 23rd which id have loved to have seen

[@HermanWaldorf]

I've recently become very fond of Neurosis (and saw them live for the first time). Very often, especially live, they remind me Mogwai

[@longlivetheclash]

The Staple Singers- Excellent!

[@Ben_Mdws]

That was ace.

[@abelisraelcruzayuso4682]

Matt Elliott IS fantaaaaaaaastic

[@matthewtop]

I would love to see Ed Wynne from Ozric Tentacles on here. Or the whole crew. I love that band.

[@riggs100]

Mogwai IS amazing...

[@thundertower]

makes me wanna explore the gospel genre, I like his taste on this. Cool video

[@2bin]

Nice guy.

[@HappyAppart]

Me: What's with all the laughing ? Stuart: I'm really hungover. Best timing ever

[@asleanfinnsen7048]

Jello Biafra or Fenriz would be very interesting!

[@saksilangit]

Nice hat Stu!

[@brantub]

well, what a sweetheart

[@alessiodom]

Alan Lomax???!! Thanks you from Italy ! Search recording " treasure of Italy" .....beautiful!

[@tylersims6937]

St'chewart, is a fucking absolute superhero and I dig the whole band. I appreciate the fuckin notes he plays and the ones in-between, maybe even more. Please, if you haven't..go see Gwai live...at any/every chance you possibly can....do. I swear on my fuckin name, It will blow the very tiddies off your soul.

[@cgh7337]

1:54 Such an awesome picture.

[@AidyShaw]

Anyone who enjoyed Stuart Braithwaite in this, buy his book, Spaceships Over Gkadgow, it is ny favourite book about musuc ever.

[@daichiwatanabe7800]

Glad to see his T-shirt as a japanese fan

[@gogogooooo65]

Woooow! He is wearing a "大丸堂" T-shirt!!! Atomicのジャパンツアーの時に買ったのかな。

[@FranciscoBurrola]

He should have bought Klimt 1918 - Sentimentale Jugend album

[@tylermane77]

Interesting without being pretentious. Thank god.

[@jackborgeson8534]

YEAAAHHHH reppin RENO punk scene !!!

[@doggotbitm]

Oh shit!

[@slavoherman1734]

I tried to talk to Stuart during one music festival. He seemed very nice and friendly but I failed to decipher his thick accent (Eastern European here). I excused myself and went away. Sad story.

[@vertbleu616]

Oh god he mentioned Skip James! Amoeba you should get Terry Zwigoff to do this. Or Whit Stillman. Both brilliant directors with good taste in music.

[@norbertovelazquez6286]

Sonic youth, nine hinch nails, the cure t-shirt

[@abelisraelcruzayuso4682]

Weren't the Voices of Freedom the choir that sang U2's (and with U2) I Still Haven't Found What I'm looking for?

[@FungusMossGnosis]

What a nice bloke.

[@thundertower]

might cop that 3rd year foundation, knew this guy knows his shit

Why am I only finding out about this now?

[@ThatOneGuy7550]

GOD I LOVE MOGWAI. OH DAMN ZODIAC IS AN AMAZING MOVIE ALSO STUART IS A NIN FAN? NICE.

[@pathologicallyfriendly]

That One Guy Mogwai and Trent Reznor worked on the 'Before the Flood' soundtrack together

[@rch6650]

Stu is alright!

[@tylerd3020]

Would kill to see billy corgan, placebo, or she wants revenge on here!

[@intheharbour1]

How is Stuart getting younger?

[@longlivetheclash]

I love his Scottish humour.

[@MaddestMousse]

Fuck yes.

[@prince13896]

A Scot in L.A. buying old gospel records. That's pretty cool.

[@vicaldama9314]

Alan Lomax?! Yes! Very important!
