I think we're all agreed, Elijah Wood demonstrated some seriously solid taste in music here. Would love to see Amoeba get him back 10 years later, wonder where his tastes have gone and what he makes of streaming culture.
Elijah Wood has the most eclectic and musically interesting picks of any other episode I've seen, the man is obviously musically inclined , at the very least in the sense that he understands that good music transcends specific styles and genres. 1:35 - I'd get that just for the cover alone, but it seems it's not available on iTunes, let alone in my area's only remaining record shop.
I always love Elijah Wood! He's just so down-to-earth and I've been really obsessed with him when I was in high school. He looks so handsome with his sweet blue eyes.
***** Of course yea. I do it a lot of the time on my Ipod/a CD in a CD player. It's just much less of a hassle than throwing a vinyl on, and a lot easier to pause and come back to than leaving a vinyl out.
***** It's not the same man. You feel an extra level of connection with vinyl, you simply can't achieve that with MP3s. And I say this as someone who listens to MP3s 95% of the time
Dude I wasn’t expecting the directions this went. He’s such an introspective guy, I love his little spiel at the end about the culture of listening to music and how it’s changed.
I appreciate his view on the process of listening to vinyl. there is a certain sincerity to putting on a record and really appreciating the music, especially in an age where everything is at our disposal right at our finger tips.
you know, I actually think Frodo AND Harry are pretty good actors.Frodo can play a great psychopath.Have you seen "Maniac'? He did an awesome job in that and, yes, he does have great taste in music. Roky Erickson ROOLS.
Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood joined he remaining members of the Small Faces to form the Faces. The album he’s holding is the North American issue. Steve Marriot was the singer of the Small Faces.
Gal Costa is just about the best tropicalia you can listen to. Didn't Tom Jobim say she was the finest tuned instrument ever? Love all the rest, I'll definitely check it out.
Ok so Frodo is into my absolute fav band of all time; my precioussssss *13th Floor Elevators*! That does it, I'm calling him a cool dude. There's no turning back. *He is a cool dude*. There, I said it and I meant it.
wow!! I've really got to check out that soviet funk...just that little clip that was played during this interview was enough to wet my whistle. sounded jazzy and funky as hell and I look forward to having a deeper listen. and the small faces are brilliant too.
I'm a fan of Elijah, as an audiophile. I saw a photo of him in front of his system one time, he had Klipschhorn speakers with Mcintosh gear, very cool.
First Step was actually the debut by Faces not Small Faces. The US versions confusingly had Small Faces on the cover when Steve Marriott had already left for Humble Pie and been replaced by Stewart. Found that quite interesting
I must say that this has changed my opinion of Elijah Wood. I always assumed he was a douche, but after watching this video I actually respect the guy. He knows his shit, and he picked a few killer albums.
I saw him talking about the Smashing Pumpkins on an episode of The Osbourne's (he went to a concert with Kelly and Jack, I think) and I thought 'Man, he sounds like he's way into music.' Theeen I saw him in one of the Lord of the Rings extras with his GIANT CD collection, flipping through the booklet while talking about listening to music during the Fellowship's hair and makeup. He seems really really cool, a true and passionate music fan.
The cast of LOTR are so into music! Billy sings in his band, Elijah mixes music (DJ), Dom dances and sings (mostly with help of specific beverages).... They are all living and doing what they want to do! For that, I applaud them! :)
I really agree with what he said about how listening to digital music is almost schizophrenic in a way and that we don't really pay attention. I've only collected records for the last year and a half or so but it really changes how I listen to music. If somebody asked me about a band that I've only listened to online, the best answer I could give them is that I like them or I don't. When I put a record on, that's when I am really listening and it is committed to memory. Oftentimes, digital music just falls to the background for me with the rare exception when I repeat a song for like 5 hours (happens more often than I'd like to admit!). This is a really old video but I felt like commenting anyways:p
Per the Raincoats: Ingrid Weiss was the drummer for the Raincoats. Her 3 children with husband Graeme Durham, are a great little group called Kitty, Daisy and Lewis. Nice to see that someone is still interested in the Raincoats.
these video's are changing my life
+wwjd0723 I know, right? So much music to check out.
Then you' need to get more
I think we're all agreed, Elijah Wood demonstrated some seriously solid taste in music here. Would love to see Amoeba get him back 10 years later, wonder where his tastes have gone and what he makes of streaming culture.
The fact that he picked a Gal Costa record is really cool. Love Gal Costa.
Chachi Shapiro I was surprised that he knew Gal Costa
Eu amo a música dela❤❤
That really surprised me. Que legal!
Muitos gringos amam música brasileira dos anos 60
I flipped out tbh
I like this guy, in Hollywood you don't get that many cultivated & educated actors with good taste & class, keep your cool Elijah
You know a lot of Hollywood actors?
@@thegamedudeguy you know Hollywood us full of pedophiles and child abuse?
More like "What's in my Baggins?"
kkkkkkk
Ruben Ahumada I love you
shame on you.
Nice :D
But what does he find when the bag ends?
. . . i'm sorry :'(.
Elijah Wood has some great taste, who would have known that he was into psych rock?
maybe cuz he smokes a lot of weed and probably dabbles with lsd and shrooms here and there
He is an avid 45´s collector
yes, your name suits you. elijah is a smart fella
Have you seen Wilfred? He clearly has an opened third eye.
everyone is
His quote at the end about "devoting" yourself to an album on vinyl is actually really good, and true.

Gal Costa ❤ que bom saber que o Elijah gosta de uma cantora Brasileira
love what he says about playing records at the end very true.
***** Of course yea. I do it a lot of the time on my Ipod/a CD in a CD player. It's just much less of a hassle than throwing a vinyl on, and a lot easier to pause and come back to than leaving a vinyl out.

Those eyes man. It's like I am staring into an endless ocean. Beautiful man, beautiful tastes. \m/
...said a guy called BrutalOppressor :D
Despairine you sure It's a guy?
Frodo knows his shit
right thats what i was thinking oh shit frodo is a huge music buff
He picked a record he had no idea about based on the sleeve ...
Gal Costa is like one of the most gorgeous voice u'll ever hear in your life.
Dude I wasn’t expecting the directions this went. He’s such an introspective guy, I love his little spiel at the end about the culture of listening to music and how it’s changed.

His eyes... So beautiful! And good taste for music!!! ❤️
I know everyone already knows it but my goodness, his eyes!!! Mesmerising.
These What's In My Bag videos are the predecessors of Criterion's closet. Amazing stuff.
We love their closet videos. Great stuff!
Never underestimate a hobbit
I love the artwork on The Raincoats record. ^_^
This is one of the best "What's In a My Bag?" I've seen. It goes to show you that Amoeba's variety and selection is unreal. :)
love me Some Elijah Wood, He's Not only a Beautiful Talented actor but also An Smart Cool Guy
It’s cool how he’s not pretentious but he actually really just loves music
seems like a very humble dude, i like him alot, a successful actor who remains human.
So glad that he mentioned Finders Keepers Records....truly English and tasteful
Daniel Radcliffe has great taste in music!!
thas funny
More like frodo has great taste in music.
you know, I actually think Frodo AND Harry are pretty good actors.Frodo can play a great psychopath.Have you seen "Maniac'? He did an awesome job in that and, yes, he does have great taste in music. Roky Erickson ROOLS.
Garrett Swenson Why do people like you always confuse Elijah Wood and Daniel Radcliffe with Ramsay Bolton?
Jah Hey, I don't know if you couldn't tell by the upvotes but it was a joke. Sarcasm, you know?
Lets all face it. We are just staring at his eyes...
what a charming guy, and he's introduced me to some music I really need to check out
Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood joined he remaining members of the Small Faces to form the Faces. The album he’s holding is the North American issue. Steve Marriot was the singer of the Small Faces.
Gal Costa is just about the best tropicalia you can listen to.
Didn't Tom Jobim say she was the finest tuned instrument ever?

Hell yes!!

@@SrArtz25 it`s Selda - Yaylalar
What a great guy! I love people who are passionate about music and also diverse in their tastes.
He's really informed.
If you say so.

Props to Amoeba for putting Selda's song in the background in the end!
Good taste in music and I love that breakwater release the beast.
Ok so Frodo is into my absolute fav band of all time; my precioussssss *13th Floor Elevators*!
That does it, I'm calling him a cool dude. There's no turning back.

One of the best episodes. Like you, Elijah. 😀
Oh my God! His face and mind is so fucking beautiful...
He is beautiful just like his music taste *___*
Eclectic taste. Good on ya, Frodo!
i'm in love with this record nerd.
How many of these records are actually for Wilfred?
+William We know that Wilfred basicaly picked all of them because he likes them. That is why Elijah can not know how they sound. :D
+Lars Nick Except for the cat record x)
William Z who is Wilfred?
bruno3833 A tv show

That confused me too..
Elijah Wood gets it. Very Cool Choices. Lots of Musical Discovery, thanks for the suggestions Elijah!
omfg i didn't know he had such an amazing taste in music :)
Great music and thank you for producing "The Greasy Strangler"! Keep it up!

frodo get some balls buy some metal start with black sabbath
He’s actually a super nice guy. He’s often a guest on podcasts I listen to and is amazingly sweet and genuine.
If I remember correctly, he made (co made) a documentary on the proto metalband Death some years ago.
He has a reputation for being one of the friendliest people in Hollywood.
Im a this guy fan allready bt now I LOVE this mtfk!!! Gal Costa's first record!?!?!. Are you kidding me!?!?!? Long liv Wood!!!!
he has the most beautiful eyes!
The cast of LOTR are so into music! Billy sings in his band, Elijah mixes music (DJ), Dom dances and sings (mostly with help of specific beverages).... They are all living and doing what they want to do! For that, I applaud them! :)
He is so cool. And people please stop calling the man Frodo!!!
ive respected this guy ever since he did that flying lotus music vid. and that last part about vinyl compared to mp3 is so true too

Track at the end is from Selda's s/t btw.
Damn, that 'Release the beast' by Breakwater song is great! I'm discovering a loooot of music with these videos, thanks Amoeba!
Awesome! We actually discover a lot of music making these episodes too. Thanks for watching.
I have a lot more respect for him now that he bought the !3th Floor Elevators.
Bought 13th floors first record at amoeba too!
Love that band
Did they end the video with Selda Bagčan? It sounded like it...
Mykey City yes I believe they did. elijah is a fan of hers I believe
yep selda bağcan - yaylalar
i just found out through sharam, great artist!
Yep yayalar
I've always respected Elijah since I saw him at a WEEN show it the Fillmore in SF around 1999-2000.
the ring is in his bag
Lmao
Him and records and gorgias eyes! Great combination!!!!
FUN FACT: After meeting Ozzy Osbourne in the Osbournes Season 1 episode 2. Elijah shakes Ozzy's hand and sniffs it afterwards
I adore this man
Caramba, eu nunca suspeitaria que ele citasse a Gal gosta 1:00.
Muitos gringos amam música brasileira dos anos 60
One of his latest movies "Come to daddy" was insanely awesome.
Who knew he had such good taste in music.
Great job Elijah!😀👍♥️
No fucking idea about that music, but those eyes.
Awesome video, Elijah is great!
Great actor, great music taste, funny personality, what does Elijah Wood NOT have?
wow great taste in music . I learned alot
4:57 I had no idea Daft Punk sampled that, it's amazing. I need to check it out.
@bluej3anbaby sin duda los más bellos del planeta!! Tiene el oceano y el cielo en sus ojos!!!
Small Faces? Elijah I always loved you.
I am a big fan of Elijah and I love international music
his music taste is smooth as eggs
Gal Costa, Amazing!
he will always and only be Frodo in my eyes
God his music taste is so eclectic and unique - I love it!
