Jeff Parker - What's In My Bag?

[@dustjacket1000]

Jeff Parker has always been pure class.

[@BedroomBeethovens]

"Everyone loves Ray Charles, and if they don't, they should." Truer words have never been spoken.

[@grittyshaker]

I love finding new music from “what’s in my bag”. He had some great picks

[@interstellaroverdriven6450]

I had an inkling being a Tortoise fan that these picks would be killer and Jeff did not disappoint. Amazed by his extensive knowledge of so many genres! Killer!

[@Sketchysketches16]

Didn’t know he was in a band previously have only heard the stuff under his name. Will def check out tortoise

[@edgoodlife7582]

+Interstellar Overdriven : Same

[@ipostsongs5305]

so am i

[@mot00rzysta]

@@ipostsongs5305Enjoy the Tortoise trip, guys. You might also enjoy the Isotope 217 side-project that Jeff, John and Dan from Tortoise were in.

[@haroldsmith1213]

very nice guy very humble and his picks were soooo good,he actually turned me on to alot of his picks,enjoyed this video,good luck now and always✌🌻🇺🇦🇺🇸

[@theWARMJET]

Indeed, me too, One of the best episodes ever

[@tomatopaste799]

Humble is right. You’d never guess he’s in one of the most legendary and groundbreaking bands of the last thirty years!

[@Ramblebar]

This is one of the episodes of W.I.M.B where you will immediately go online to discogs and various other sites to find alot of these records!!!

[@dannyhqax]

Jeff Parker is the best. his recent work with Anteloper is neat, too.

[@Hassebas88]

very happy to see this man here

[@JJTFishing]

You should have Jeff on weekly. Love this.

[@Sketchysketches16]

Love seeing Jeff Parker get recognition

[@artkincell]

Somehow, I haven't listened to Reflections In The Sea Of Nurnen in like 35 years. I'm off for a listening day. I met Jeff years ago. He's really, REALLY a nice dude.

[@mnchls]

finally some fucking deeeeeep cuts i could listen to Jeff talk for hours, he almost has a voice suitable for ASMR

[@emilianoo.1596]

His partner was one of my instructors back in film school. She also has a very ASMR-like way of speaking that made you kinda sit up and really pay attention to her, at least it did for me. She’s an awesome person & filmmaker. When I found out her partner was Jeff, I was like “Holy sh****t!” lol

[@jaguarvssnake]

[@Diatonic5th]

I picked up "Reflections In The Sea Of Nurnen" a few weeks ago. Great album!

[@andrewbarnumsongs7774]

Thanks Amoeba. This series is forever a source of inspiration. Never stop inviting those names in your racks of rabbit holes..

[@tiredoftheentitled9009]

Best what’s in my bag for a while. Great picks with great explanations. Thank you

[@drrhythmn]

Best What's In My Bag ever - Jeff knows what he's on about - fantastic selections!

[@stephen3511]

Some great selections. Cool, humble dude, too 👍🏻

[@rodrickhudson6537]

I went to the same middle school that Jeff went to in Hampton VA. Eaton Fundamental Jr High. Cool then as he is now.

[@customURLfor]

what a legend, I had to take note of all of his recommendations

[@berfmurret]

Many thank yous professor Parker!

[@funkways]

my musical hero talking about his musical heroes

[@slmjkdbtl]

oh Jeff Parker hell yeah

[@kevinogracia1615]

Thanks, Jeff for some groovy new tunes to search for. Peace on earth.

[@BrentLane1]

He and his band are awesome. Been a fan for a while, and his picks are so good too. Much respect!

[@wangba]

I love he gave the Elements LP love and captured both what's good and bad about that record in a few sentences. Fronted by Pat Metheny Group alumni Egan and Gottlieb. "Forward Motion" was mostly DOA commercially; it has that Metheny sheen but not the pop sensibility. It's usually found in dollar bins, often unopened. But, what's interesting are the odd electronic timbers and atmospherics.

[@adedovey5937]

Jeff! Make us some sick playlists dude!

[@newsoundsandold]

So many albums to check out now... Awesome picks from an awesome guy!

[@NotYourTypicalNegro]

Jeff Parker is now one of my new favorite guitarists of all time after seeing him with Meshell Ndegeocello.

[@FedUpSista]

Same here. For me, I’m really digging Jeff AND Chris Bruce.

[@RS-vk7op]

Tortoise are amazing!

[@Afrikantk]

Love Jeff!

[@troypeterson6057]

Wowza! All this spacey, chillout jazz that I don't know anything about, but have wanted to find an entry point into for so long - this is great stuff!

[@cadmantheaviator]

Have a listen to Miles Davis Bitches Brew.

[@brownyuio]

*starts picks off with Madlib and shows off a Lord Quas sweatshirt* Okay this artist’s episode is gonna be great.

[@stack_of_records]

His taste and. selection in jazz is spot on!

[@garykuhlmann8149]

Finally somebody with a lot of picks that I've never heard of instead of the same old stuff. Great video!

[@interstellaroverdriven6450]

100% I love the passion he exudes with his picks. Lots to learn here!

[@llllemomn]

love this man!!

[@nobbystyles4807]

sly and robbies dub experience was a keystone lp for me.i can listen that album from front to back without a break any day of the week.

[@CORDUROY00]

Very cool. Dig all of JP's stuff.

[@alexandertalbot9406]

Felt like a masterclass, love Jeff Parker and his picks. Thanks for highlighting him!

[@christinadtla2196]

This was illuminating… loved it. Thanks

[@seewhale]

Jeff's the man.

[@kenmotley5316]

Brilliant!! 🕊

[@georgesember9069]

I don’t know Jeff’s music, but I love his commentary!!

[@jm-wd6up]

Do yourself a favor and listen to his solo work. It’s transcendental.

[@petehurd5301]

now on the hunt for that Zawinul, thank you...

[@billnelson9413]

Excellent taste!

[@georgesember9069]

Thank you! I shall!!

[@GinSoakedBoy]

Carter's Dauwhe is stellar. Excellent choice (among many others, of course).

[@carterwatson1949]

Thank you guys for working hard to keep posting this show I really appreciate this show so much love you guys hope i get to visit someday and shop!!

[@burmajones803]

Love Jeff Parker. Good to see him talk abt music. Thx Jeff for your music.

JP is a legend!!

[@brianblueskye9715]

Solid selections!

[@glimmo43]

Exceptional episode.

[@petertaylorarts]

Great pics. Need to listen to more of Jeff's music

[@JamesRone]

One of my favorite musicians of any genre. I love his records, and these are some really great recommendations.

[@two-cats]

This dude killed it!

[@bardpondo]

So much obscure great jazz here

[@reddkard]

Jeff…..thanks for the Jakob Bro recommendation. Really nice album !

[@mot00rzysta]

"in the wild" - loving the phrase Here's Doug M and John H from Tortoise on Amoeba "what's in my bag", if anyone's interested: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6KunIN-jayre8k

[@jayd3931]

Well I just bought 3 of the albums spoken about on here, and 7 more that are related to them. People like Jeff are why this series is essential, and also who I drop into Amoeba whenever I'm in LA or San Francisco.

[@2WheelsGood]

That's how it's done.

[@spencergrady5501]

Love Jakob Bro - great pick.

[@_lucasmaciel]

this man knows

[@carltwidle3287]

I love Ray Charles. He was one of the greatest singers of all time.

[@prilljazzatlanta5070]

A statement that should be obvious but legends like Ray need to be kept alive

[@alecholt2968]

Great to see Dauwhe, exceptional album

[@owenhu9465]

cool picks as expected

[@dinosaursr]

Very cool transmission of some interesting music and background info.

[@Z-eb]

hahah, Madlib sampled "Renaldo and the Loaf" Cool !

[@josephchamberlain3681]

[@arturbarca4618]

Very cool! Will sure check some of these records.

[@margeaux.mp3]

ugh jeff is the best

[@robbeason]

This is a fantastic list.

[@joshuapocalypse]

Here we go. Some good picks.

[@jhardycarroll]

that king tubby record is dope

[@Natsu-pv4jh]

Woah his picks are AWESOME!

[@shimmeringtrashpile]

So good.

Sweet picks

[@jeebsgold]

probably my favorite WIMNB

[@phenomena17]

Great video very rich taste

[@mikebryant4146]

Thanks Jeff. Time for another JP album please ?

[@chadkelham5034]

Jeff certainly has an amazing taste in music; you also gotta love how clutch that Quasimoto tee is!!

[@swmtym]

❤

[@willhouse]

Parker's totally a luminary from Chicago's long-standing improvised music scene. If any of y'all are looking for lesser-known stuff from this guy, check him out on the second album from Ted Sirota's Rebel Souls: "Propaganda." kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4u7pJuubdCeqrs

[@mrzima138]

thanks for the tip!

[@JamesRone]

This is a great record - thanks for the recommendation. I love how rangy Jeff Parker is. I love his covers of Bobby Hutcherson AND Frank Ocean. And I love that he shows you that they aren't really all that far apart.

[@willhouse]

@@JamesRone Exactly! Parker just does whatever the music needs to be cool *and* interesting.

[@adrianjohnson2874]

Great album btw!

[@adrianjohnson2874]

Jeff Parker is the man!

[@christopherbaliwas6181]

The second to last video marker should be Joe Zawinul, not Miles Davis

[@FonkyShitProductions]

Spicey! 🪴

[@crazyprayingmantis5596]

Oh yeah this cat has his shit together ladies and gentlemen

[@tohtorizorro]

I feel such a barbarian after this lecture 😅

[@OkrutnyCzarownik]

Is it just me, or is there note of Cleveland Brown in Jeff Parker's voice? :)

[@woodybalfour8213]

Jazz heads

[@truckerkevthepaidtourist]

How many people cheat and go right to the description to see exactly what guests picking to see if they're going to watch the whole thing or not😂

[@rockyscarlet]

Do yourselves a favor and listen to The New Breed by JP

[@krisshuty5740]

anyone know the song's name before he starts with his picks?

[@CCBMmemes]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3TXq2ukeap9e80

[@5pqrt5t3r6]

It’s Gnarciss by Jeff Parker, which is kind of a cover Black Narcissus by Joe Henderson

[@poppeku69]

😊

[@biffhaus]

Damn, what ISNT in your bag?

[@cerebralcaustic]

fascinating how most musicians pic albums that sound nothing like their own music...

[@losfeliz3421]

😳😳😳😳

[@FreezerKing]

I bought a Clock Tower edition of Blackboard Jungle by Lee Perry at a record show and it was a horrible pressing, basically a bootleg. Hopefully the pressing he bought is...not that, haha.

[@jayd3931]

Much of their stuff is sketchy. They have a bad reputation. Unfortunately, Jamaican copyright laws are basically non-existent.

[@FreezerKing]

@@jayd3931 Makes you wonder why places still stock their stuff.

[@rodangles382]

Invazion

[@willhouse]

...but isn't he, like, just a little *warm* in all of those clothes? 🤔

[@RO8YO]

That’s the San Francisco store so regardless of when this was filmed it’s safe to say “No.”

[@Rooftop_Korean_159]

Who?

[@arbaliciousmusic]

Are you okay?

[@amneziak]

Jeff Parker. See, it says it right there.

[@llllemomn]

check out the records “tnt” by the band Tortoise as well as “suite for max brown” and “forfolks” by jeff parker… isotope 217 is cool if you like more experimental stuff

[@spencergrady5501]

Jeff Parker. He loves your stuff.

[@Emlizardo]

His "Suite for Max Brown" was listed as one of the best albums of 2020 in Wire magazine, deservedly so

[@user-ys3qq6rf6z]

try white music like this mortal coil
