Did an interview with Brad Laner from Medecine on my channel earlier this year, for the vinyl release of Her Highness. You might find it interesting. Shoegaze was super formative for me, as I was a young teen when it happened. Seefeel and Th'e Faith Healers were my go to bands, though, but they were more than a few that mattered to me. Obviously My Bloody and Medecine, but also Pale Saints, Jean Paul Sartre Experience, early Ride, some Slowdive, Bowery Electric, early Verve, Flying Saucer attack, etc. There are thousands of new shoegaze bands these days, but it's not just about the sound, but also the energy of a time, which most often gets lost.
Hey Stunty, I will check out your interview with Brad. Love the early Seefeel, and Th' Faith Healers- need to get them on vinyl. My go to shoegaze was MBV, Lush and the Swirlies, just now finally getting into Slowdive. Thanks for watching!
Hey, i absolutely love this video and hearing your stoires love your orignal loveless shirt would you ever be intrested in selling it i love that stuff! let me know im a huge fan of your videos just now going back and watching your older videos. Thanks for sharing your stories and experinces with us all!
I saw Medicine about year or so be they broke up around late 90s. They are one of my favorite bands I saw live and Her Highness is one of my favorite albums ever.
Yeah Great stuff, I was lucky enough to buy pretty much all the MBV stuff on release on vinyl as The Melody Maker & NME were going nuts for them. still got ‘Isn’t Anything & You Made Me’. I sold ‘Feed Me’ & gave away ‘Glider & ‘Loveless’ (vinyl had pretty much no value in the early nineties!! Do you know the 90’s American Band ‘Drop Nineteens?’ They we’re ok, very pop shoegaze. recently sold my copy of their album. The second wave of Shoegaze was quite interesting like Disco Inferno & Bark Psychosis, maybye not as melodic though,
I'll have to check those bands out. I do know Drop Nineteens. I'm going to make another video where I talk about the more modern shoegaze bands. Thanks for watching! Cheers.
I sympathise about the My Bloody Valentine scarcity...I bought those first two Creation' EPs when they first were released - but in the interim they fell by the wayside - maybe I sold them in lean times - I can't even recall...and now, as I also revisit vinyl, when I looked to repurchase them they've prohibitively expensive...
MBV show July 2018 --- Shrine Expo Hall next to USC. He didn't mention that it was part of his 50th birthday celebration - Smashing Pumpkins, Pixies/Weezer, MBV, then Garbage! MBV show was so loud that my earplugs were vibrating out of my ears.
great collection. do you think the mbv reissues like loveless went through an analog and digital remastering? did you get to compare the sound on the two copies you have of loveless?
I don't think I have nice enough stereo equipment to tell much of a difference, to be honest. They both sound amazing, after listening to this album for 30 years from either the cd or digital download.

Her Highness is a great album, saw them on that tour. I talk more about Medicine on the 2nd part of this video, uploading now. Thanks for watching!
Hey, did you get that Her Highness vinyl Brad recently released?

My 53 year olde brain can relate. I don’t use notes in my videos either, except for dates. 🎶☮️🎶
Thanks for watching, and your empathy, Mike!
Great video! What is the white shelf you have for those records behind you? Got a link?
Thank you! Those white ledges I bought at Home Depot, just some PVC edging/corner strips of some sort. Thanks for watching!
