The Sundays are another band that lives on the sturdy Johnny Marr/The Smiths branch of Jangle Pop. If you don’t get to them in your videos or don’t have any of their records, I highly recommend them. (Sorry I entered this comment before the end of your video.). I love Jangle Pop. The Byrds and Big Star are, to me, the foundations of American Jangle Pop. The Smiths did the same for British Jangle Pop as REM did for American Jangle Pop, which is they updated the sound. I was a latecomer on both because being in college during the 80’s, their fans were relentless in their fervor and college radio seemed to play them on repeat.

Also of course wonderful to hear The Barracudas; when living back on the Canadian Prairie my band used to cover 'I Can't Pretend', which we'd often pair up with a Groovies number (generally 'Shake Some Action'). In closing, a massive thanks for pointing out the Close Lobsters; despite having lived in the UK for decades I'd only just been able to sample their stuff now (beginning with 'Let's Make Some Plans').

Hey there Hanna. Nice to see you holding Bombs and Queen is Dead. They looked very cool in your hands. They were my favorite eighties band by far. I don't think anyone accomplished that kind of success in such a short time. I think you will learn to love the debut and Meat is Murder. They may even become your favorites in time. Andy and Mike also played a huge part in their success. Good to see you holding up Foxheads Stalk This Land. I really enjoyed that album. I think I showed it a few videos back. Yes. I had no clue that Felt released a best of. I only have 'Ignite the Seven Cannons' on vinyl. I see that Primitive Painters is the last track on that. What an amazing song. I could not play side A enough when I bought it. So glad you are listening to them. Lawrence is one of my favorite vocalists from the eighties. I got to check out that Barracudas album. I kind of remember them or someone else doing a song called I Want My Woody Back. I love any kind of surf music. Would you call them surf or pop? Excellent job with this one Hanna.

@@TheOmahaIntrovert So first of all, I love the shirt! It's so cool to see something that's a bit different from the norm of Pink Floyd, Zeppelin, Grateful Dead, the Doors, etc. shirts. So I got to say that I was totally misinformed on what jangle pop was. I did consider the Byrds jangle pop but didn't think of it as tied to the electric 12 string. I wouldn't have thought as REM and the Smiths as jangle pop so you've gave me quite the education here. It was cool to see you whip out the Close Lobsters album. Again, that's one I wouldn't have picked up if it wasn't for you. As I said before...with REM, I much prefer their 80's work to the stuff they started putting out in the mid 90's and beyond. The Soft Boys are still a band I need to look into. I appreciate Robyn's work but haven't really investigated the Soft Boys at all. The Barracudas, the Springfields, and Let's Active are all new ones for me. The way you described the Barracudas though makes me want to seek that one out. The Go Betweens...I'll be keeping my eye for you...when and if the cloud lifts and I can do some record shopping again. You weren't kidding about the prices! I picked up that same Chills, Silver Bullets album a year or two back. It's a great one. I am eagerly waiting for part II. BTW - I loved all the little edits you put in this video.

Especially adding the song clips...that probably takes the longest because I import from the CD and then I have to trim it down to the 10 seconds I want. Eeeeks! I get in a zone when I edit, though!

I don’t know if they would count as being in the same category as Jangle Pop, but Echo and the Bunnymen make a lot of amazing music, and they have some great 12 String songs on a few of their albums. Their guitar player uses a very sexy Vox Teardrop 12 string which has a bigsby vibrato and it has a haunting effect. If you haven’t already heard it, you might get serious goosebumps from their album “Ocean Rain”. They have a self titled album which is more upbeat but also a very strong album full of Jangly 12 strings. Oh crap… you just mentioned them like 13 minutes in! Whatever, great videos and thanks for sharing Close Lobsters with me. I’d heard of them but haven’t dug into their music.

The Byrds are simply amazing. Loved buying the remasters of all their albums with bonus material on CD. Bonus material included the band arguing with each other in the studio whilst recording one of their songs! The daggers were out that day! David Crosby was my favourite member and loved all his songs for the band. One of the bonus tracks is a controversial song written by David Crosby called Triad, apparently recorded under protest by the rest of the band as it's about a menage a trois! It sounds beautiful and David sings beautifully on it. David Crosby's first solo album called "If only I can remember my name" is a masterpiece and one of my all time favourites. Naturally I loved him in Crosby, Stills and Nash. An epic band. Basically anything Crosby did was pure gold. 😊

Hi Hanna A very interesting and informative video. Lots of stuff I am unaware of (Springfields, The Bats) and I will check them out. I agree with the Byrds but I think The Searchers were the first jangle band, they played Rickenbackers and Roger McGuinn was very influenced by them and they are still very underrated. (They have just retired). The Beau Brummels were a great jangle band. I saw the Soft Boys many times they were part of the British Pub Rock scene (another genre). I am extremely impressed that you are into The Barracudas, what LP Drop Out is. I have got most of the Go-Betweens and Felt's early 45's and LP's, getting pricey now. So much music that you are into, its very impressive. I am looking forward to the next instalment of Jangle Pop.. You might mention this band, Teenage Fanclub. Take care. Gary

There is a Go-Betweens box set, but it's well over $200. I featured Teenage Fanclub in my power pop video. I have quite the affinity for them! They're definitely both power pop and jangle pop!

Some digging out of old CDs to be done again - and a recent band I wasn't aware of - The Stroppies. There's a great double CD by Grant McLennan, 'Horsebreaker Star' (1994) which was easily available really cheap in the UK in the late 90s. Nice to see The Chills mentioned. I've always been a huge fan of Robyn Hitchcock. I picked up a signed Church CD Single from somewhere and I think I have most of their albums. The Clean interested me. I thought, hang on, what's she talking about? They were a post punk hardcore band. When I checked I found I was mixing them up with another Kiwi band called The Clear, who eventually morphed into Lung. I shall now go search for my Let's Active, Felt & Barracudas CDs. I recently discovered a radio station out of Seattle (KEXP) that posts live sessions on KZbin & found they had bands like Slowdive, Swervedriver & Hatchie on there. Cool stuff. I also discovered a UK band I didn't know, called Hælos - sort of Leftfield Trip-Hoppy stuff, with some dream-pop elements. Excellent.

It’s refreshing to hear a female perspective of the “jangle pop” genre. That said, as much as I love the Soft Boys and Go-Betweens I don’t consider them “jangle pop”, bands, even if they have some songs that fit that description. I will give you props for mentioning obscure bands like the Barracudas, Close Lobsters and Felt, although Felt's music, however jangly, isn't very melodic. FYI to me, The Church define the jangly guitar sound for most of the ‘80’s, at least for their first five albums, although, R.E.M. is undoubtably the most influential band of that era.

Apparently Roger McGuinn put the Rickenbacker 360/12 through a wall of compression and limiter equipment in the studio, still not sure how he tackled that live, since there weren't compression pedals etc., back then. The compression and limiting gives his Ricky that extra high end, chiming ringing ultra-sustain sound. The 360/12 already sounds that way on its own, but treating it this way gave the band its distinctive sound. I also recently read that The Beatles used tons of the same compressors and limiters on their albums. I have a 12-string ac. electric, but not a Rickenbacker, I picked up a compression pedal recently, it definitely helps gives the 12-string a good top boost, and more sustain, even if it doesn't quite sound like The Byrds' treatment of it. You can even now buy the JangleBox pedal that McGuinn helped design, gives a Ricky that Byrds sound, but it costs $300.

@@TheOmahaIntrovert I didn't know of it until a few weeks ago. It's expensive. If you need a Byrds sound, it's a must though. Although a good compression pedal will get you close. Taylors are darned good guitars, in fact, I know both Elliott Murphy and Bob Perry of Winter Hours both told me they love the Taylors. I think Elliott even endorses them. They're very playable and they also make baby Taylors for those of us with smaller hands. the 12-string is fantastic, what's not is having to put a whole new set of strings on it! But i just take my time and usually it's ok.

Hey Hanna. Really great job with this. I have the new Close Lobsters on order. I also am not a fan of the cover art. Robert Forster has a solo album that just came out but I haven't heard it yet. That Springfields record is terrific. The Flying Nun stuff is so good. I look forward to part two. Cheers!

Thanks so much, Sam! Glad you are picking up the new Close Lobsters. I wanted to get it on vinyl, but they were sold out on Bandcamp. Don't know if they got any back in stock yet. I'm fine with the CD for now. Yeah, the cover art...I was a bit confused! Ha! Seems I need to sample the new Robert Forster album. Thanks for letting me know. Have started preparing for Part 2 already! Cheers!

Hi Hanna. This is great, you almost did a documentary about Jangle Pop ¡ I love to sort my music by genres but this one is a little difficult for me cause those artits are all over the place in my record collection. Records from the most well known artists you showed like REM, Smiths, Robyn Hitchcock and The Church I have them as Post-punk. The Byrds I have them as Psych and Tom Petty as Jangle Pop. I dont have the records you showed from the more obscure artists, but you could argue some of the more iconic bands from the Latin Rock genre like early Heroes del Silencio or Caifanes have exactly that jangly ringing sound.

Hi Alejandro. Hope life is treating you well! Yeah, I guess you could say this was a mini documentary of jangle pop. More to come, though! It's fine how you have your records organized. I've been following jangle pop pretty closely and calling it that since the mid-2000s when I was getting into the dB's, R.E.M., etc. big time! I'll have to check out Heroes del Silencio and Caifanes! I always like you stopping by! Cheers!

@@TheOmahaIntrovert Yes doing ok, thanks Hanna, if you like Echo and the Bunnymen you'll like Heroes del Silencio, and specially, if you like The Church I'm prery sure you'll love Caifanes, although they are their own thing. Other favorites, kind of jangle are Fobia and Babasónicos but Babasónicos are more psych. If you check all those bands Im pretty sure you'll find their singers to be pretty good looking. I mean all of them drive the girls crazy down here in Latin America ¡ lol

Damn, I didn't even know that the "Chronic Town" EP existed. Now that I've listened to it, I can say that "Gardening at Night" is arguably REM's best song

love the Dunedin bands, particularly The Clean's early singles, The Bats - Daddy's Highway and The Chills - Kaleidoscope World. In terms of the Underwater Moonlight Yep Roc reissue, I personally heard on Discogs that it wasn't very good so I'm not sure about getting it, but I do really want a copy of that LP and the other pressings are very rare.

Hey there! Oh yeah, those Clean early singles were incredible! Thanks for watching my jangle pop video offerings, my friend! I find no fault with this Underwater Moonlight reissue, but I don't have an original copy to compare it to. I have seen a rare pressing of it with different artwork. It was $50. Take care!

Hi, my name is Mark. I just discovered your channel today. I enjoyed the way you do genre videos, I'm an older gentleman in my 60s. I love jangle pop, power pop And shoegaze. Where do You classify The Stone Roses? Sorry if you mentioned them, if so I missed it. They are one of my all timers, along w Ride. Anyway I thought I'd send some positive support your way, you do a really nice job. Mark

Hi Mark! First of all, welcome to my channel! Glad you are enjoying my content. Oh, Stone Roses. I have featured their debut in one of my finds videos I believe. I guess they are a bit hard to categorize, eh? Indie/Neo-psychedelia? I love them, too. And Ride are stellar! You have excellent taste, my friend! Thanks for leaving me a comment!

The best Go-Betweens album (imho) is “Tallulah.” It's worth buying for the song “Bye Bye Pride” alone. If that song doesn't stir your emotions you should check your pulse!
