Mazzy, The Long Cut, The Archivist & Me

It's a VC reunion of sorts. The Long Cut drove up from California to stay with us for a couple of days. We went to Janku Land in Tacoma and then met up with Mazzy for beers and pizza at E9 in Tacoma. Later when we got back to our place we decided to make a video with no clear agenda. This is what happened.

Wow…this is like watching The Music Nerd Avengers assemble. And I genuinely mean that as a compliment.

[@lostmixtapes]

@@aronpolasek4506 We had a lot of fun. We should have filmed beer and pizza before that.

[@ShamrocknRecords]

A great thread could come out of this conversation. Honestly, bands you need to check out more and haven’t listened to enough. So many for me. Great to see you all! Happy New Year! Cheers, Brian☘️

[@lostmixtapes]

@@ShamrocknRecords It would really suck if we had truly exhausted it all. Happy New Year!

[@bigedhaaheo]

Aloha, All Just happen to be Scrolling through & this channel pop up. Usually I watch Mazzy's channel. Great to see the Archivist, I just subscribed to this channel, Lost Mixtapes. Great get together. Sharing your love of music 🎶.... Mahalo Ed

[@russdawson7256]

It was cool hanging with you guys...thanks

[@lostmixtapes]

@@russdawson7256 Love that it felt that way. Happy New Year!

[@twofromthetrunk9932]

Great to see good friends together. Yes , the Queen drove a Galaxy 500 Ford ( my wife btw). White with a black vinyl top. Yes i do wish i was in that room. I was a poor kid growing up, the records i collect are the ones I couldn’t afford. So, they are pretty common. Thank you for inviting me in.

[@MrJDCohen]

That was GREAT! Happy New Year 🎉

[@retromusings]

Very fun to watch! Happy 2025!

[@cultvult]

Love it! I so wish I could hang out with you guys. I had so much to add to that conversation lol

[@cultvult]

I’ll throw a couple in: Green on red, Gas food and lodging. If you like Neil Young, Wilco, Dinosaur Jr at their most melodic. Songs about drifters and serial killers. Chuck Prophet, who Harry loves, on guitar. Also, Come, 11:11. If you like the same, a melodic, punky, dynamic crazy horse, with an amazing, gritty female singer, Thalia Zadek. Drummer for Codeine on guitar. Brilliant, and should be more known. Check both albums out people.

[@rocky-o]

any conversation that ends with henry diltz is a great conversation.. happy new year guys.. peace..rocky

[@Mark-tw5ws]

Best track on ZZ Top Eliminator is I Need You Tonight. Deep cut for sure

[@TheRollingStoness]

Awesome chat... If the Mazzy is in, i will keep watching 🍻🍻... Love all you four music aficionado s input...need to check out Redhouse painters

[@lostmixtapes]

@@TheRollingStoness Thanks! Sun Kil Moon is great as well.

[@TheRollingStoness]

@lostmixtapes love it... please let me know his best one to purchase..thanks

[@TheRollingStoness]

@lostmixtapes checked on you tube

[@lostmixtapes]

@@TheRollingStoness Ghosts of the Great Highway would be the one I’d recommend. Benji after that, but that’s when his style changes to less melodic, more spoken word/storytelling.

[@TheRollingStoness]

@@lostmixtapes thanks ...will do

[@brentcunliffe745]

2025 most wanted - Rubber Soul box set w all the bells and whistles.

[@BreakfastKingOfLoyola]

That Cheri Knight record is so good

[@scottphillips1686]

Mazzy, that Elton John record is worth having just for the song Blue Eyes. One of his best!

[@Mark-tw5ws]

50 yr old here. I circled back to Elvis Costello and Joni Mitchell too. Roxy Music was another one. It was all taking a chance on the value bins.

[@lostmixtapes]

@@Mark-tw5ws I feel like I could do that with Roxy Music. Still pretty new to me.

[@williamcalvert4106]

Really enjoyed this get together.

[@JoeWilliamsonjr]

Enjoyed the conversation. What is the drink recipe?

[@lostmixtapes]

Thanks! 1 shot of bourbon. 1/2 shot of maple syrup and 1/2 shot of lemon. Shake. Pour over ice and top off with ginger beer and add a cinnamon stick. Our portion size may have been a little more than that. 😊

[@TomCwimpRock]

Billy Sherrill (“Almost Blue”) produced people like Tammy Wynette, George Jones, Charlie Rich, etc and a million others in the 60’s and 70’s Nashville scene. Nice video.

[@lostmixtapes]

@@TomCwimpRock Thanks! Yeah, I read up on him a little bit after this video.

[@mazzysmusic]

It took me awhile but finally got there . Yes Billy Sherrill

[@markwade2530]

I'd love to join you guys for a drink & chat about music ... come to Liverpool UK please 😅

[@lostmixtapes]

@@markwade2530 Maybe if this KZbin thing really starts taking off for us.

[@markwade2530]

By the way, I like Blue Moves but not every track on it. And Supertramp's Crime of the Century is a masterpiece.

[@RichGangloff-kj4kf]

I don’t know that record but am assuming it’s Cheri Knight from Blood Oranges (also with Mark Spencer now in Son Volt).

[@skrem23]

I happen to love Elton John's Blue Moves.

[@ianbrown3304]

Rules for record collecting: 1. Never buy groups with silly names....hold on ...most groups have silly names. 2. Never buy albums with rubbish covers ...except reggae. 3. Buy any Billy Irish album. 4. Having three beers removes inhibitions therefore improves record choice. 5. Buy all Bert Jansch (pronounced Yansh) albums on sight.

[@gregorytu100]

TV Dinners!

[@lostmixtapes]

@@gregorytu100 so many of their singles are great.

[@CBCDs]

Coool

[@fitzelectricbar]

I love that Bert Jansch box! Yes, Black Swan is a special record. Felt like I was enjoying a cocktail with you all. Mazzy angry about Blue Moves! Personally offended. Love it. “Doesn’t have much edge to me” (Todd re: Hotel California). Couldn’t agree more and New Kid In Town 🤮. Anyway, that was a fun evening with you guys. Drive safe. 😎

[@mazzysmusic]

Nine of us drove. Had a sleepover 🌟

[@lostmixtapes]

@@fitzelectricbar LOVED Black Swan when we played it the next day. We need to get you down here for something similar.

[@fitzelectricbar]

@@lostmixtapes that will be fun. Strangely I feel like I already know you guys. 😎 Same goes for your visit up here. Whichever comes first. Happy New Year.

[@jagaire]

The Long cut, pick up skylarking by XTC.

[@jeffreylind3739]

Great conversations and libations....Re: EJ-Blue Moves. Elton had just fired the best rhythm section short of the wrecking crew in Dee Murry and Nigel Olsson, and brought back Caleb Quaye to work with Davey Johnstone. Others brought in like Barnstorm/Joe Walsh Bassist Kenny Passarelli and drummer Roger Pope with keyboardist James Newton Howard changed the entire dynamic of Elton's sound. Add in Bernie Taupin's pending divorce, some drugs/alcohol, and the result is Blue Moves, which came after Rock of The Westies, another not-great LP. I didn't much care for it when it came out, especially when compared to Captain Fantastic, but after some critical listening over time, and a bit of a deep dive into the sessions, it has grown on me, though not to the point of a favorite. I find the sound to be lush and vibrant- w/nice orchestrations. IMO he had much worse records in the 80s, but I can certainly understand why some don't like it.

[@lostmixtapes]

@@jeffreylind3739 Thanks! I’ll try to listen to it with an open mind.

[@vinylrichie007]

Mazzy dresses like an old lady.

[@heywoodjablome5630]

Looks like Leonard Cohen to me

[@vinylrichie007]

@ I think I would rather look like an old lady.

[@TheSixthBeatle-p9k]

Maslof is an old lady

[@TRamone01]

Where am I? Who are these people? Elvis Costello still around? First 3 Three Dog Night's records. No mocking. No slobbering. No slurring. Suze Rotolo schooled Dylan on political. He never was a believer. Let's not bring back folk music. Love Adriene.

[@cultvult]

Saw the Broun Fellinis many times. They did a few tapes and CDs. Kinda knew Ayman the first bassist. The first tape was the best, Aphrokubist-improvisations-vol-9. I didn’t like the new bassists style, kinda funk slap bass. Didn’t fit in. Ayman was more melodic like spiritual jazz and they lost a lot when he left. Drummer Kevin Carnes, aka Dr. Boris Karnaz, was incredible

[@nigelgilbey312]

Blues Moves had quite a bit of filler on it but it definitely was not shit crap as you put it had alot of good songs think it was better than Rock of the westies before it the real poor records came after this,I don't think he made a good album after this till Songs of the West Coast but that's just my subjective veiw. I know Mazzy your just trying to entertain but iam sure you know he made much worse albums than Blue Moves but yes his golden run was over.

[@mondoenterprises6710]

I love Blue Moves. Unsubscribed! lol

[@mondoenterprises6710]

The election is over, Mazzy. The bums lost. My advice to you sir is to get a job. Get a job, sir!

🙄😵‍💫🤓

Wouldn't surprise me if your great comment is completely lost on Maslov.

[@jessem470]

Happy New Year This was a super cool conversation. A band that should be listened to is Ween They will have something for all of you Did Huey Lewis when he was in clover play on Thin Lizzy Live and Dangerous ? Harmonica Loved Bert Jansch box set an amazing artist and sorta connected well from same world John Martyn os an artist to include in people who has run on classic albums Flo and Eddies : Moving Target is a great 70s album They also sung backing vocals on T Rex ; Bang a Gong Don’t shit on Supertramp ! Save that for ELO Are The Decemberists prog ? If any of you make it to NYC in 2025 Please go see Rev Vince Anderson at Union Pool he plays Mondays or at very least check out the documentary kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHW1e5uuqsl3rZYsi=n3Ayd0p35lwR1UC0 Kate Bush is promising an album ; finger crossed

[@lostmixtapes]

@@jessem470 Thanks! I wouldn’t consider The Decemberists prog. Interesting that Flo and Eddy sang on Bang A Gong.
