Holy shit Stones Throw for life

[@J4KETS]

ST always staying ahead.

[@brownyuio]

JT Rosen hell yeah

[@GDSamo]

Yussef Kamaal are amazing - everyone should check them out. Black Focus was one of the best LPs last year.

[@Toxeensynth]

Totally agree

[@fifasbassrules2413]

You right about Black Focus being one of the best records from 2016!

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

GDSamo Gilles knows his stuff!

[@EdacSelectah]

without a doubt!

[@invisiblecurious856]

Marvellous record!

[@12Saintsrow]

J Rocc a fucking legend.

[@philpheburbs]

anyone else notice every time J Rocc sings his chosen tracks, he's in key, note perfect... slick :)

[@JakeDosJs]

"The lady you hit, was your mother" Tragic line lmao I laughed out loud

[@crazyman98fmFIFA]

this segment is the best thing on youtube

[@57dogsbody]

That's NOT Philly Joe Jones in the little film clip, that was Jo Jones......Great drummer but completely different person.

[@amoeba]

You're absolutely right. Good catch. We wish we'd found this clip sooner: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHqzepZpl9CMpcU

[@Carlo24515]

Lol I was just going to say that

[@stilldiggingrecords3951]

Thats "Papa" Jo Jones

[@thejoshuahatcher]

That's not Philly Joe Jones at 5:15... it's Jo Jones. Also a jazz drummer, but an entirely different one of a different era.

[@hansheld467]

oh yes, they show Papa Jo Jones!

[@vincentjay77]

5 years later but this bothered me lol

[@SleepFan771]

Karriem Riggins did an amazing job producing Common's Black America Again album.

[@spamspaz]

One of the best episode in ages, these picks are all golden.

[@kellensheppard779]

This show always puts me on to some good shit

They both have amazing taste in music

[@seanpc100]

[@ryanackerman8157]

J Rocc is a DJ's DJ. Dude is the best.

[@amshuchitrakar4424]

i'm a little confused, this is the J Rocc of stones throw right? not the J Rock from Kendrick's entourage. Edit: Sorry, i commented too fast. he picked up a SUn Ra 45.

[@therealfrankmossofficial]

@@amshuchitrakar4424 hes j rock from trailer park boys

[@sooperheep]

Beat Junkies

[@WebsterNobert]

Damn this is one of the best episodes I've seen here in a minute

[@annbjer]

Two of the coolest cats on the planet...add Madlib and you have the magic number!

[@DorianPaige00]

Good picks and good to see somebody take a risk on an album based on the cover. Good analysis by looking at the album's origin, date, sideman, and label. More often than not I can tell what album will sound like before opening but sometimes I'm surprised.

[@dosertao]

amazing!

[@IFeelSoTongueTied]

two of the most important ppl in music.... exactly what i expected them to pick

[@slingerdingkes]

awesome taste

[@Manderson4395]

heard some of the sample parts of DOOM's lightworks and opening chord of fancy clown in the background. cool.

[@JanPrzybylowski]

David Byrne at Amoeba would be amazing

[@maryaquintanaernst293]

YES PLEASEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

[@renzo7543]

Great picks

[@kincamell2]

Much Gratitude

[@fifasbassrules2413]

Two very talented persons.

[@harrysmith5340]

Please please please get Flying Lotus on here!!!

[@theorrymusic]

I wish they could get basically everybody from brainfeeder on here.

[@theafrospacecowboy]

Jack Johnston Well, they had Kamasi Washington, Thundercat, Daedelus and Gaslamp Killer, so it's not impossible to bring FlyLo to this show!

[@Grobo25]

Yes Yussef Kamaal!!!!

[@farhantalukder]

headnote suite back to back enables two hours of extremely productive work

[@maximusmckillataco3942]

I'm taking all these songs

[@CVinyl]

"Space is the Place" - Sun Ra 🛸

[@Hardbody94]

Sun Ra is out there

[@corywilliams458]

Dat Last 1....Oku.....fire! 🔥....s/o Dame Funk!!🙌

[@akuu193]

J rocc is heavy into library, he bought Arawak's accadde a.... sampled by madlib for his real eyes track. A Bali

[@dasdabeatjunkie]

Deep cut right there. Dope

[@tonysmith5878]

I CAN DIGG IT BRUTHAZ GOOD EARS NEVER STOP DIGGIN' THESE ARE THE DUDES!!!!!

[@MaSoisSoful]

Yussef Kamaal...one of my best friends got me into them. Best thing he ever sent me.

[@GuyBanani]

yo they put a video of papa joe instead of philly joe....

[@Zeal808]

J rocc always has fun

[@reymontcantil199]

Hot jazz on the platter

[@bitlord-hm7nt]

Big fan of both J -rocc and Karriem riggins. Surprised J rocc didn't throw any J Dilla in his selection since i know he's a big Dilla fan.

[@michaelstachowski1969]

I watch these before I sit in the chair to make music

[@nk-salinger]

Jazz lesson from legends

[@davidnapier6045]

@amoeba The video clip you play when Karriem talks about Philly Joe Jones is actually Papa Joe Jones. Kind of confusing, but not the same guy.

[@kXpimpin]

Eric Harland shreds

[@SMONDERISLAND]

we need madlib!!!

[@kevincoleman6804]

Hey Amoeba that clip at 5:15 is a video of Papa Joe Jones, not Philly.

[@greenonreed]

that´s it.

[@mrbobcr]

Hey guys, the footage you used to show who Philly Jo Jones is, is actually Papa Jo Jones (or just Jo Jones). I completely understand de confusion there ;) Anyways, great episode.

[@amoeba]

Yeah, we caught the error too late, and can't fix it in a posted video now. Thanks for the heads up though. Let us know anytime you catch a goof on our part. We want to know, and it helps anyone reading the comments get straightened out.

[@samrawlings7227]

Sick to hear J Rocc bigging up Yussef Kamal .

[@theorrymusic]

Has Amoeba invited flume to do a WIMB yet? Would love to see that :)

[@losfalsosdelapaz9933]

whats the name of the crazy drumming at the beggining?

[@GrungeRockGod]

What are you from the department of knowmsayins?

[@moses_dimski]

More artists like them. Btw you showed a clip of Papa Jo Jones, not Philly.

[@yuvalgarin3945]

they put a video of papa joe jone when the talked about philly. lol

[@JimmyDrs]

Wrong clip on 5:15. That is Papa Joe, not Philly Joe.

[@fotismonocheir1446]

Do one with Varg Vikernes....or Charlie Parker

[@estebandonati9215]

5:16 it's not philly joe that's papa joe

[@benjaminrich870]

Used the wrong Joe Jones when he's talking about Philly Joe Jones. The video used is of Papa Jo Jones, who is a totally different drummer. No disrespect, love these videos, just pointing out.

[@Carlo24515]

5:15 that's Papa Jo Jones not Philly...

[@nirkleiner]

(5:18) thats not Philly Joe Jones (:

[@rafaeltrindade7009]

I gotta I ask myself... do Karriem and J. Rocc like jazz? The question gets me scratching my head.

[@capricornpisces3725]

[@rach6st]

disappointed that it's not J-roc from TPB

[@shaunpearson7905]

Damn I thought it was the dude from Trailer Park Boys

[@joshsocket9173]

Wrong J Roc. Naam sayin?

[@urzadek27]

i spin more rhymes than a lazy susan, and i'm innocent 'til my guilt is proven, peace

[@jamaln22]

Josh Socket get that mafk outta there

[@surcharge1112]

If there's a better ep than this... Hit me up!

[@jayblummer146]

yopp

[@capdec9398]

J Roc looks faded !

[@mattmerewitz626]

Pretty sure they put a video of Papa Jo Jones when Karriem was talking about Philly Joe Jones. Cringe. 😬

[@geraldking4752]

I am not familiar with this guy,he seems nice enough but there is only 1 JROC and he lives in Sunnyvale trailer park. "knowmimsayin"!

[@skeeter27501]

get more producers on this shit

[@creekandseminole]

skeeter27501 9th Wonder would be sick

[@Kia-vh7li]

Please get bon iver on this

[@theplourde]

I won't sit through most of this series either because I don't like the artist, or I'll just check the description and see their picks and I'll bow out. This was particularly bad

[@shellybellysf]

Excellent taste
