      The guitar parts are one of several good reasons why most alternative music from the mid 80s til now can trace back to this band. Sonic Youth is one of the most underrated seminal bands.

    Fun fact: the parents of an old therapist I had, who was also one of the youngest witnesses to Nirvana's rise pre-Nevermind, were extras in the video. This was shot just prior to a show during both bands' summer headlining tour after SY advised the band to sign with Geffen, since there was a bidding war to do so after the already modest success of 'Bleach'. SY's tour previous was the opening slot for Neil Young, by the way.

    This was the video that I will remember as properly surmising that generation of music. Back when people actually danced at shows, & well before everyone had their own personal video recorders that they now apparently watch the shows they attend through. Those were much better days folks, & not just because of the music.

      +TrOllinM4sTEr lemme see in 1991 I was in my second year of college, my best friend who was a chemical engineering major at univ of tenn had a six string unibody Carvin bass which he could play like Les Claypool (Primus, Flying Frog Brigade) OR Infectious Grooves), and I was dating Sheri King, aka Cigar Chick, a Richmond Va punk rock legend in the scene who was then enrolled in Virginia Commonwealth University art school in Richmond ... best in the country for art, I graduated from VCU with a math and comp degree a year before she did due to her magnificent fuckups back in the dark days before she met me. It was a fucking good year for me and my 1974 Ford Torino, you know what I meano?
      I went to see Nirvana on their last tour at William and Mary Hall... both Sonic Youth and I loved those three lads from Seattle... but I am very sad to say I never saw Sonic Youth live, mainly because they didn't come around often and I had heard their shows weren't so hot although what I've seen on UA-cam makes me regret
      not seeing them. I fucking worship Kim Gordon (i play bass, look up "slave mason" in quotes two words) still and back then I literally thought of her when I was slogging Sheri haha thats what you get for igging me all these years just because I made the mistake of hooking up with... uh ok yeah man 1991 was a kick ass year and it kept getting better ya know? all the way up until the era of queens of the stone age, white stripes and my chemical romance there Kieran I name dropped mcr just for you boo boo.

    Here we go to another candle I know
    All the girls there playin' on a jelly roll
    Time to take a ride, time to take it in a midnight eye
    And if you want to go, get on below
    Pinking out the day, dreaming out the crazy way
    Finger on the love, it's all above
    Everywhere it's six-sex-six by luck
    A satellite wish will make it just enough
    You'll be making out with a witch in a coffee truck
    Time to rock the road and tell the story of the jelly rollin'
    Dirty boots are on, hi di ho
    Pinking out the black, dreaming in a crack
    Satan got her tongue, now it's undone
    I got some dirty boots, yeah dirty boots
    I got some dirty boots, baby

I had a great 20's decade playing in an originals band with our friends doing the lights and mixing. One friend taught himself to set up the pub p.a. properly and became a mixer for us and then all the indi originals bands in the city. Later he made a successful carreer opening a top level recording and production studio in Melbourne

    When I first saw this video, a long, long time ago, I thought it was totally contrived. Sonic Youth was avant garde, but they certainly werent teeny bopper music. I never knew a single female who was into them (except the bassist). I couldn't imagine a scene like that, where a bunch of teens, girls and guys go to a S.Y. concert to meet each other. I actually did see them in concert once in Santa Cruz C.A. circa 1988. Everyone just sat there like bumps on a log, because all the tofu eating hippies had no idea what they were seeing. It was definitely the loudest rock show I've ever seen. I had ringing in my ears for days afterward. In fact 30 yrs. on, as I wrote this post, I still have that ringing. Tinnitus, the gift that keeps on giving.

    Finger on the love - it's all above
    Everywhere it's six-sex-six by luck
    A satellite wish will make it just enough
    You'll be making out with a witch in a coffee truck
    Time to rock the road - and tell the story of the jelly rollin'
