Dude, c'mon. The hip, the Beatles, PJ... this sociopath didn't even realize his own brother's talent. I will hate this gorgeous, beautiful band, till the day I die. A bad death, cuz I love em.
So cool to hear Tommy mention Sid Selvidge (RIP)!!! Unsung hero of the Memphis blues scene in the 60s&70s. Still can't find that Jim Dickinson LP on vinyl though... Thanks Tommy!
tommy was always my favorite member of the replacements. Probably because I was 13 when I got into them and I was like "ooh look a kid rockstar" Gotta say he was cute back in the day
When I was a teenager in the late 1980s, I used to tune into the college radio station at 10:00 pm and listened into the wee hours of the morning to the Mats. So fun to find out Tommy likes the Cocteau Twins!
damn, the faith no more record in the back switched places between gang of four and the jam. was something edited out that tommy stinson said about "the real thing"??
Just listened/discovered to the replacements this summer along with Radiohead all summer, and my god what a catalog to get with during crazy times. Let it Be, Sorry ma, pleased to meet me, hootenanny are all amazing records, love Tommy’s bass lines on a lot of their songs are out of this world fucking feels like euphoria
Tommy Stinson! Tommy Stinson! That guy's awesome! AWESOOOOOOMEEEEEEE! awesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesome
So kool it is to hear a member of one of my all-time top-fav bands expound on his favorite music and how he came to love the artists and the given albums and the role those albums played in his life and how that impact evolved over time -- especially the story about the connection between the Cocteau Twins album and his daughter's birth and early life!
I found a mint copy of Chelsea Girl for a few bucks at a small dusty Flea Market in the American South. And Johnny Winters Second Winter- same price! Finding a MINT Nico LP anywhere outside of a record store or private collection is unheard of....and it wasn't even an used album stall....
Setting Sons was good,had some great tunes,and you could see Weller was trying emulate Pete Townshend by including a mini operatic song cycle in there.Personally,I always liked All Mod Cons the best.
Last year my nephew played me some Lana Del Rey & I said yeah it's cool, sounds like this band I remember from the 80's called the Cocteau Twins, played some for my nephew & he was like wow, really cool. Tommy Stinson starts talking about Lana & I think wouldn't it be funny if he was a Cocteau Twins fan when he was playing for the Replacements . . . turns out he was.
Watching this video again reminded me of how I found out about The Babys and Gang of Four. Also, the Replacements are one of the best bands in history in my opinion.
He mentions Gang of Four's 'To Hell with Poverty'. Greatest guitar intro ever. Next to the Tim version of 'Can't Hardly Wait', of course. Tommy's cool.
Nice, I literally just started to get into The Replacements! Idk how it took me so damn long to get around to it, I've only been listening to their contemporaries for nearly 17 years (I'm 30, going on 31), and always heard good things about them, but literally did not listen to them till last month, after I was convinced to listen to the albums "Let It Be" and "Tim"... My only regret it that I hadn't started listening to them as a teenager. Fucking brilliant ✌🏼
Sometimes it's nice to get into something late. You get to enjoy a wide scope, a deep rabbit hole of their work. Like instant gratification and patient waiting at once.
I know Tommy , he’s a sweetheart! Funny way to know him! Woke up in two different women’s kitchens drinking coffee in the am. We cracked up, quietly. Friends since, with a smile. Smart kid!
I don't know, I kept waiting for him to mention it, but every time they cut back, it looked like the record was gradually moving further and further away from his pile haha.
talk about a guy with life experience, unlike most "hardened" men he actually was tougher than most...imagine being 13 in a rowdy bar.. must have been life affirming....
I had every one of those records; even The Babies album. I bought that one on the same day that I bought The Romantics first album (before the single, What I Like About You, became a successful single for them). The only point of division would be over Jackson Browne who I think is brilliant. :)
+xRAxK he mainly grabbed it to talk about the producer, Matt Wallace who also produced a Replacements album. He’s not much of a fan of that record though.
I think Cocteau twins have gone to that place in the light bulb that a lot of us have been to but stayed a bit longer you know the syd Barrett place electric lights moving very fast place ok
"Going Down" (NOT "ain't going down) do yourself a favor and find that great unreleased GN'R track with "General Tommy Stinson" on Lead Vocals & Axl on Backing (l know right??). I Really hope we get to hear those unreleased songs from GN'R Tommy and the other fellas put YEARS of their lives into but no one ever (as of yet) got to hear.
A man who's been in the rock'n'roll business since the age of 11. Respect.
Right!?
Have you read that book- best seller,
“The Trouble Boys?”
Kind of sad
The first record he picked was beach boys. I knew Replacements were my favorite band for a good reason.
impossible not to love this adorable bastard
The Replacements, the greatest band of all time, period
Close , but Husker du takes the ring
The replacements... such an amazing, legendary and REAL band. Love them.
Dude, c'mon. The hip, the Beatles, PJ... this sociopath didn't even realize his own brother's talent. I will hate this gorgeous, beautiful band, till the day I die. A bad death, cuz I love em.
@@iggypopisgod9 hells ya! But honestly , if Bob and Paul could just talk things out... then replacements by a month
They r definitely tp10
So cool to hear Tommy mention Sid Selvidge (RIP)!!! Unsung hero of the Memphis blues scene in the 60s&70s. Still can't find that Jim Dickinson LP on vinyl though... Thanks Tommy!
The first Lana Del Rey album and Blue Bell Knoll are two of my all time faves. Love Gang of Four. Great choices
tommy was always my favorite member of the replacements. Probably because I was 13 when I got into them and I was like "ooh look a kid rockstar" Gotta say he was cute back in the day
Love how he picked a Jam record
He looked at those Fall records.
When I was a teenager in the late 1980s, I used to tune into the college radio station at 10:00 pm and listened into the wee hours of the morning to the Mats. So fun to find out Tommy likes the Cocteau Twins!

Wow that was my two major band discoveries as well these past few years
Tommy Stinson! Tommy Stinson! That guy's awesome! AWESOOOOOOMEEEEEEE! awesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesomeawesome
Love a man in Uniform. Is such a classic record. And yeah you can never go wrong with Chelsea Girls
Really good selection. He seems like such a cool guy

Carolyn's Fingers by Cocteau Twins, one of the greatest songs ever composed. Other worldly.
When you see him put back Dragnet by The Fall :,(
Such a great, eclectic choice of music -- surprised a bit by the Cocteau Twins pick (love that album too!)
Tommy Stinson. Man, I've never clicked on a video faster in my life.
Same!
I found a mint copy of Chelsea Girl for a few bucks at a small dusty Flea Market in the American South. And Johnny Winters Second Winter- same price! Finding a MINT Nico LP anywhere outside of a record store or private collection is unheard of....and it wasn't even an used album stall....
Yeah the Replacements. It was their attitude.....punk and rebellious and the songs. Great guitar tones. Rocking band
Nice to see some love for The Babys.. Wait really has an amazing voice and crafted some great power pop hits of that era.
Mike Scott Agreed, especially “Isn’t It Time” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Waite
Saw John Waite 2022..... Amazing !
Amazing !
Just finished reading Trouble Boys. Great read. Looking for Perfect songs by Tommy.
He seems like a cool dude
@d0dFLyEr how so?
Nobody cooler than Tommy! Great picks dude. THANKS FOR THIS POST
YES, theJam “Setting Sons”. Thick asThieves is my fave too
100%!!!
The Jam are awesome! I always felt they influenced the Replacements. At least Tommy's base playing.
Setting Sons was good,had some great tunes,and you could see Weller was trying emulate Pete Townshend by including a mini operatic song cycle in there.Personally,I always liked All Mod Cons the best.
Last year my nephew played me some Lana Del Rey & I said yeah it's cool, sounds like this band I remember from the 80's called the Cocteau Twins, played some for my nephew & he was like wow, really cool.

Highly recommend checking out the two Bash and Pop records if you like Tommy. They are both excellent.
Watching this video again reminded me of how I found out about The Babys and Gang of Four. Also, the Replacements are one of the best bands in history in my opinion.
He mentions Gang of Four's 'To Hell with Poverty'. Greatest guitar intro ever. Next to the Tim version of 'Can't Hardly Wait', of course. Tommy's cool.
So cool that “Thick As Thieves” is his favorite song too...
Thank god a guy who appreciates the brilliance of pop music {No dreary Brazilian samba nigerian fusian delta jazz}
Man I really should check out the Acapella version of Pet Sounds. And James Luther Dickinson sounds amazing.
Dickinson was also tied in with Big Star, and his son's are the North
Mississippi All-Stars.
Bash and Pop new Lp is feeeeenominal!!!
anyone know where to get a jacket like that? looks cool
Lots of good records but man, those last three in a row are incredible.
I like it when someone comes across very differently than I expected.
Nice, I literally just started to get into The Replacements! Idk how it took me so damn long to get around to it, I've only been listening to their contemporaries for nearly 17 years (I'm 30, going on 31), and always heard good things about them, but literally did not listen to them till last month, after I was convinced to listen to the albums "Let It Be" and "Tim"... My only regret it that I hadn't started listening to them as a teenager. Fucking brilliant ✌🏼
Same goes for me.... It's embarrassing and exciting. Just when you think all of your musical obsessions have been established and worn out....
Check out The Replacements at the 7th Street Entry 1981 on YT. I used to see them all the time in Mpls! RIP: Bob.
Sometimes it's nice to get into something late. You get to enjoy a wide scope, a deep rabbit hole of their work. Like instant gratification and patient waiting at once.
It's better late than never, I'm 29 have been a fan since 2007.
Go Tommy! Nice mix of picks, love some Gang of Four
Really also need to check out that The Baby's record.
I know Tommy , he’s a sweetheart! Funny way to know him! Woke up in two different women’s kitchens drinking coffee in the am. We cracked up, quietly. Friends since, with a smile. Smart kid!
Love him so much for that chelsea girls album 💖
I think its fAN - FUCKIN - TASTIC that Tommy Stinson is getting some well deserved recognition !! Good on ya Tommy!
wow really was pleasantly surprised by many of his choices but they were all recordings that i was into......i just did not see that Tommy would too
Wow, awesome that he loves Sad-Eyed Lady… listened that song to death a couple years back, lol. Still has that magic to it today
I watched a 1989 interview with Tommy/Paul..
They said Cocteau Twins then
Another interview where Tommy shows his admiration for Cocteau Twins. How very cool.
I like his Bob Cratchit gloves.
Grande Tommyy!
I agreed with everything he had. I disagree with not liking Jackson Browne. How can you not like Jackson Browne?
04:51 LOL what happened to that Faith No More album? He regretted picking it?
I don't know, I kept waiting for him to mention it, but every time they cut back, it looked like the record was gradually moving further and further away from his pile haha.
SO GOOD.
No band reminds me more of being 17 back in the eighties,than The Cocteau Twins
I just made a point of listening to James Luther Dickinson. That sole clip sounded amazing!
Tommy's face looks amazingly like Harvey Keitel! 2 talented cool dudes!
God, I hate saying it. But Bob needs to remembered... always
I've always thought that John Waite might have been a secret influence on Chris Robinson...Anyone else?
Tommy Stinson (The Replacements/Guns N' Roses/Bash & Pop/Perfect) *
Ricardo Gama and Soul Asylum
But mainly The Replacements.
GREAT picks!
Interesting that the Blonde on Blonde with the Claudine Cardinal shot and the other woman which were removed during the 60s issues.
Damn standing right in front of Delbert and Glen… one of the great country funk albums of all time. I’d walk out happy with just that!
Tommy got good taste, I've got so many of these rockers.
tommy gets his tonsils out
reymont cantil You know what? I've been in the hospitol...
Rip rip gonna rip em out now
This is by far the best WIMB selection!
The only man I'll allow to wear a fedora

Mike Scott
Phil Campbell
Freddy Krueger
The quality of the guests lately has been top notch
+Sam Bullock Thanks!
This was so useful, thanks lovely x
Great pick with the Beach Boys Tommy.
They played the greatest bit of lyrics from the album at the end of the video.
BEST SHOW NO SHOW
Wasn't he like 13 when he played with The Replacements?
Yes.. check out The Replacements at the 7thStreet Entry 1981. Tommy was 14 or 15 then.... GOOD TIMES.
I think he joined the 'Mats before he was born.
talk about a guy with life experience, unlike most "hardened" men he actually was tougher than most...imagine being 13 in a rowdy bar.. must have been life affirming....
I'd give a great deal to hear Nico's near-mythical recording of 'I've Got A Luvverly Bunch Of Coconuts'.
how do you pronounce Nico??/ is it neee-co, or Neye- co?? i like that one, the rest of tommy's bag is so- so.
@@oreokookie1000 Neeko is how it’s pronounced.
The Jam!!!
Staying forever young!
The Baby's, loved them. Gang Of Four....interesting, The Jam. Perfect....Tommy.
Such a cool dude, Tommy.
I had every one of those records; even The Babies album. I bought that one on the same day that I bought The Romantics first album (before the single, What I Like About You, became a successful single for them). The only point of division would be over Jackson Browne who I think is brilliant. :)
Wonder why they snubbed the Faith No More album
+xRAxK he mainly grabbed it to talk about the producer, Matt Wallace who also produced a Replacements album. He’s not much of a fan of that record though.
WTF!! I had to scratch my head when I saw that one on the pile.
Ahhh Thank you
Oh God, is he too cool for faith no more? lol.
Does anyone recognize the song that closes this episode? It's dope.
Jim Dickinson was a genius. I love what he did on the Big Star Third/Sister Lovers record.
Is he the same guy that produced those Mudhoney records?
Damn this guy has good taste.
Replacements have fantastic harmonies. Don’t get enough credit.
Great picks
With all that music background, how wouldn´t The Replacements create all that awesome music?
Love this lad!!!! LAMF foreverrrrrrrrrrrr
The jam fantastic music
Tommy you gave such great suggestions i had to cut you short and go listen to Dylan, Peace !
2:35 whats dat record name? I mean that one with dread granny holding the guitar
aryfis Cocteau Twins
Blue Bell Knoll by Cocteau Twins
under furry levis?
good one
hey Tommy, betcha didn't need three GPSes to find Amoeba... or do yours just not work only in New Jersey? Funny, that.
That still blows my mind as the greatest excuse ever.
Cocteau Twins are unmatched to this day.
Mat's forever ❤️
What is the song playing at the end of this video please??
Bash & Pop- Anything Could Happen
Never thought to see Tommy Stinson old.
Born to Die is my life story I'm so happy you picked her because.... what!? Cocteau twins!? You like them too!?
I think Cocteau twins have gone to that place in the light bulb that a lot of us have been to but stayed a bit longer you know the syd Barrett place electric lights moving very fast place ok
I got em all. Where'd ya get that jacket Tommy, I love it.
Cornball
"Going Down" (NOT "ain't going down) do yourself a favor and find that great unreleased GN'R track with "General Tommy Stinson" on Lead Vocals & Axl on Backing (l know right??). I Really hope we get to hear those unreleased songs from GN'R Tommy and the other fellas put YEARS of their lives into but no one ever (as of yet) got to hear.
Are they selling vinyls again ❓✌️
I love these vids.
