It's so great to see Mary Timony doing great (and showing some music too!) these days... I'm a girl from Brazil but my teens was all about her and her projects. After I dig in the riot grrrl, I'll discover amazing women doing unique things in music and Mary is for sure one of my guitar heroes! Not only that, but her exquisite writing reverbs with me and all the music I've been loving since I listen to Helium for the first time. Thank you for having her!
@@tyk8402 She's been out there for such a long time, and I've been a fan since her days with Helium. She doesn't get the attention of a lot of other artists from the last 30 years or so but she's better than most of them and has one of the strongest discographies. And to still be this great and this creative this far in -- that's amazing and inspiring to me.
Mary is the coolest! She's a woman after my own heart. I adore lute music; Julian Bream and Paul O'Dette are absolute legends. Excellent picks from Jethro Tull and Fairport Convention as well.
Pre COVID I saw her tour to mark the re-release of the Helium albums. Seeing Mary live is to experience the masterful way she merges all of the influences represented by that jam packed bag of awesome vinyl.
Both Fairport albums are incredible. Sandy Denny is my favorite female vocalist. And Ian (Iain) Matthews just doesn't get enough recognition here in the U.S. nor does the mighty Richard Thompson.
Mary is fantastic. I could listen to her talk about albums like this FOREVER! Also Casual Dots new album is great too - Christine is a genius. Imma start getting into the Lute too 😊
Mary Timony is amazing, going all the way back to Autoclave, Helium, The Spells, Wild Flag, Ex Hex and the list goes on and on. Thanks for having her do this, loved it!!
Back in the Helium days Mary came into the record store that I worked at and she was really cool and nice, even though I wasn't too familiar with her music. Geez, that was almost 30 years ago!
Absolutely fantastic album. If you like The Casual Dots, check out Slant 6, the band Christina Billotte sang and played guitar in prior to forming The Casual Dots. They released two albums on Dischord Records, and they're both great.
It's strange, because i grew up obsessed with NWOBHM and Iron Maiden, Mercyful Fate, all this metal stuff, and being from Boston, i kept seeing pictures of this young woman with a PRS guitar, in the local music papers. I checked out her band, Helium, and it struck some deep, personal chord (no pun) inside me. As she moved out of Helium and into her first two solo albums on Matador, i was obsessed. Mary opened some strange door in my musical soul, and i'm still blown away by stuff like, "The Mirror" and "Blood Tree."
Anytime I have the opportunity to see or hear Mary share her favorite music, I pay very close attention. She's an incredibly underappreciated talent who clearly has an open mind that absorbs music without concern for genre or other's opinions. That an indie/alternative icon maintains an unabashed love for Yes never fails to give me a little joy. And seeing her pull the Left Banke AND The Association out of her bag simply puts an exclamation point on her great taste in music.
Mary Timony - What's In My Bag? 2344pm 20.5.24 YES!? i knew a guy who liked those guys who made up Yes. allegedly it wasn't a pop band it was a.................i have no idea what it was but it wasn't a pop band...
I was friends with Mary's brother Patrick , we met at the Art Institute of Boston where we both attended back in the late 80's early 90's , we were at my apartment in Somerville when some bible thumpers knocked on the door , we were partying , Patrick was drunk on vodka , so we took a walk with the young thumpers and talked some sense into them , it was hilarious ! Thanks !
I am only really familiar with her song with Team Sleep but hearing her talk about music and go down so many roads makes me want to check out more of her music!
what a great video - her choices make me want to seek out and buy them all. Also to look up her music as I've never heard of her or the bands she's been in (sorry Mary). Please come to the UK. Leeds if possible.
muy buena seleccion de musica bien ecletica no la escuche a ella pero pienso que debe ser muy bueno, adhiero despues de escuchar untame the giger lo ame lo escucho todo el dia que buena musica hermana
one of the coolest musicians of all time to me !! people sometimes tell me im putting mad influences together in my tunes but next time someone does im showing them this video and one of her solo records hehehe. u can hear fingerprints from these artists all over !!! i've loved the experience of listening to every one of her albums up to this point and can never wait to hear what's next :]
White Flag would be in my bag! THAT was a supergroup! There are so many fantasy cool kids who I wish I could have been friends with as a kid in high school... talented and creative freaks like myself who could turn me on to interesting bands, familiar and obscure. Mary Timony is one such dream friend! Some you respect who can truly get you to listen without prejudice. I have never liked Yes but hearing her enthusiasm for them I suspect I would given them another try.
If Mary wants a good official document of the Yes 90125 tour I would recommend the 9012Live DVD. It's a good upgrade over the 80's VHS, you can watch it with or without the special effects.
This is why I love this channel. She plays music that I have absolutely no interest in whatsoever, but she comes out with all these albums that she likes that I like, which is super cool.

"Time it is Today" is The Associations hidden gem that could've/should've been a hit. Let's Active "Afoot" def needs proper respect. Can't wait to hear Timony Lute jams.
The Association really had some amazing songs. They've never really been critically adored, and have been kind've written off as too bubblegummy and not very hip. Ms. Timony knows her shit, though. The Association's songs are just timeless pieces of pop songcraft that deserve a fresh listen!!
Mary Timony is a national treasure. I love the transition from three lute records to Iron Maiden. Perfect.
And "Rainbow Rising"!!!
Love her ❤I remember listening to Helium back in the day and knowing she was an incredible artist.
Kathleen Hanna AND Mary Timony both on the channel within days? THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
Mary is INCREDIBLE! She should be so popular. Her hew album is nonstop brilliance and like most of her work incorporates a lot of these influences!
I agree with you 100%. Untame The Tiger is a masterpiece work.
I've had a crush on Mary Timony since I first heard Superball in 1995.... love this lady!
I'm small like a superball
Throw me at the wall
I'm fragile like an eggshell
And mad as hell
She's a queen
I’ve loved her since Helium in the early 90’s.
my glass eye i use to spy
Her album with Helium, Dirt of Luck, is one of my favorite albums of all time. Her other stuff is pretty great too.
same! dirt of luck is the best
@@rome8180 the dirt of luck soundtracked my first summer in love (summer of 95).
It will forever hold a place in my heart
Love that album! God, that takes me back 20 years at least
Iron Maiden! Rainbow! The Association! Fairport Convention! Let's Active! She's cool!
And Jethro Tull

From lute jams to ''Killers'' -- best ''What's In My Bad?'' transition yet?
paul odette? he looks like the kiddie from PART CHIMP.... ummmmmmmmmmmm.......
Mary's so awesome. Everyone go buy her new album "Untame the Tiger" - it kicks ass.
One of my favs of the year, that just gets better and better on repeated listens.

It sure does!
Mary Timony, the legend, the queen. I am so buying her lute album.
Mary Timony - the absolute legend!
Mary is the coolest! She's a woman after my own heart. I adore lute music; Julian Bream and Paul O'Dette are absolute legends. Excellent picks from Jethro Tull and Fairport Convention as well.
Choosing a Paul Di'Anno-era Maiden record is the mark of a true connoisseur. Two thumbs up!
Mary, you are the best. Hearing "Teacher" by Jethro Tull just made my day. Was fortunate to see Ex Hex live and they absolutely rock!
Pre COVID I saw her tour to mark the re-release of the Helium albums. Seeing Mary live is to experience the masterful way she merges all of the influences represented by that jam packed bag of awesome vinyl.
Great to see Julian.Bream getting a shout-out from Mary - a simply wonderful artist.
i can hear everything she picked in her music...she is so great!
I was just thinking the same thing.
Both Fairport albums are incredible. Sandy Denny is my favorite female vocalist. And Ian (Iain) Matthews just doesn't get enough recognition here in the U.S. nor does the mighty Richard Thompson.
Mary is fantastic. I could listen to her talk about albums like this FOREVER! Also Casual Dots new album is great too - Christine is a genius. Imma start getting into the Lute too 😊
I miss Helium. Saw them back in their heyday. Mary is just too damn cool.

Back in the Helium days Mary came into the record store that I worked at and she was really cool and nice, even though I wasn't too familiar with her music. Geez, that was almost 30 years ago!
My favorite Mary Timony song is On The Floor. Love seeing what’s in her bag - amazing music!
Let’s hope soon everyone will have such varied tastes as Mary’s. Amoeba is helping us along this path.
This is now one of my favourite episodes 🥰
I had the biggest crush on this lady back in the Helium days. Love her work with Team Sleep too
OK now I'm going to listen to The Casual Dots. Thanks Mary Timony, and Amoeba.
Absolutely fantastic album. If you like The Casual Dots, check out Slant 6, the band Christina Billotte sang and played guitar in prior to forming The Casual Dots. They released two albums on Dischord Records, and they're both great.

I would love to have her set my playlist for a year! Coolest bag ever.

Lol what a great memory to have 😆
Man, that is some ecletic shit right there. I mean, ya gotta love anyone who loves classical lute music, Rainbow and The Left Bank! Fantastic, bravo!
What an incredible selection! Massive respect for the Tull/Fairport selections.
Very versátile open hearings very good , that Iron Maiden opus Is a gem ...incredible recommendations !!! Greetings Amoeba fans
She's great. Great episode.
I am only really familiar with her song with Team Sleep but hearing her talk about music and go down so many roads makes me want to check out more of her music!
Start out with Helium chronologically - that means all EPs, singles etc.
thank you!!!! new artist to listen to!
Love Helium!!!👍Great picks.
what a great video - her choices make me want to seek out and buy them all. Also to look up her music as I've never heard of her or the bands she's been in (sorry Mary). Please come to the UK. Leeds if possible.
Helium is great noisy 90's indie guitar rock. Her solo albums are terrific too. Wild Flag is a fun side project with Carrie from Sleater Kinney.
great taste here!

Paul O'Dette's box set of the Complete Works of John Dowland is a masterpiece.
Love Mary Timony
What a great musician ..
I would love one more Helium album.
If Mary wants a good official document of the Yes 90125 tour I would recommend the 9012Live DVD. It's a good upgrade over the 80's VHS, you can watch it with or without the special effects.
Mary has incredible and truly eclectic taste!
SO happy to see Fairport here!!
So few people dig them. It's a shame. But then, it's appropriate.
nice person,varied picks but most i liked a lot ,i loved that she was not trying yo be cute or too cool,just straight forward,yeah ! very cool👍💙
Julian Bream - famous acoustic guitarist in Britain.
Remember him from a few years ago ❤.
such great taste
Her shouting out Teacher my favorite Jethro Tull song was a pleasant surprise

Love Bach's lute suites, cool recs T$!
Some great choices
Her next album will be called 'Untame The Lute'.
LUTEFISK!
Love Mary Timony! Autoclave album came out before 1997 though.
Yes, the 7” EP was ‘91, 10” circa May, ‘91 breakup. LP compilation released in ‘97.
The Association really had some amazing songs. They've never really been critically adored, and have been kind've written off as too bubblegummy and not very hip. Ms. Timony knows her shit, though. The Association's songs are just timeless pieces of pop songcraft that deserve a fresh listen!!
She's amazing on the Team Sleep album! 👌
wow, dowland, left banke, maiden, casual dots. her taste is as great as her music. i hope she makes a metal album
Aw Mary we like all the same music, let's party.
"I got obsessed with Stargazer and was listening to it in my car really loud" - this is the way! 🌈
Love how she casually moves from lute records to Iron Maiden's Killers 😂 eclectic 😜
This was such an excellent episode!
I been listening to helium again lately...i actually found out about them in the 90s cause beavis and butthead played a couple of their videos! Lol 🤣
no idea who this lady is but she is cool!!!
Stargazer...awesome
That Autoclave album she played on is seriously good. Check out the song "I'll take you down"
Fuckyeah, Christina, Slant 6 & Casual Dots both LPs are awesome.
Of course Mary knows that first hand.;)
Mary Timony - Iron Maiden / Killers & Rainbow, who would've thought?!
GIve her a radio show !
adorable
Love Mary. Unsurprisingly eclectic selections. Everyone should check out that Autoclave album if they haven't done so.
OMG, Mary 1 ❤, grunge and alternative forever!🎉
'Stargazer'! Agreed with another commenter that this WIMB has some zigs and zags. Love it.
hi Mary
Indie rock legend
"IT'S A BOMB -- EVERYBODY RUN!!!!"
Gotta re-listen to that Casual Dots album. It’s been a minute -
Benefit is top tier Tull!
What a cool sweetie.
Rest in peace Paul Di'Anno.
Mary is right about Jethro Tull. Thick As A Brick is a prog masterpiece.
The soundtrack to your Ren Faire
It’s not that musicians have taste in things one wouldn’t expect, but where that taste lands. MT has a wide pallet even by musician standards.
@marytimony7696 Hey, fucking good style! I am glad I couldn't make the last gig.
Wow was just listening to Helium nice coincidence
It's always fun when awesome musicians reveal they love prog.
I think Mary doesn't know what a guilty pleasure is, she just loves music
1997 is not when Autoclave was released but y’know I’m just saying.
Interesting to note that David St. Hubbins first band was the Left Banke before forming Spinal Tap.
@@gavinwilson2832 I'm on a roll, you're just jealous.
