this session was early 1993, before MTV Europe moved into its new big studios (now also demolished, along with the building where this was recorded). I was doing studio-tech on this- changed the battery in j's mxr bluebox, got rid of the buzz from his marshall & did the monitor mix. on the floor, his pedals were glued to a large piece of perspex, which had its own purple flight case. in lieu of guitar stands, he used bean-bags, as you may just be able to make out. it was extremely loud.
I saw J solo about 5 times. He would drive himself to his shows in his tiny Subaru!Pop trunk & pull out Martin and pedals. Casbah, Troubadour,etc. Dinosaur Jr. Many, many more.
This is really fucking good. I would agree that these versions are better than the album versions. I would also agree that they are much better than nirvana and just about every other band of the era. You have done a great service to music lovers everywhere by posting this and for that I say THANK YOU.
I wish Dinosaur were still mixed this way. At some point J's guitar became more noise then tone and they have somehow forgotten to put Murph in the mix these days.
Same here! Had Get Me on an old VHS, never heard Budge. Me and my brother, such as countless other guys of the era I guess, always had a cassete in the videorecorder ready to catch a video. They were the playlists of the time. Sounds like another geological era...
Where are the lyrics in Budge? I thought the verses he mumbles something. Like; " You're hitting my last nerve. I don't know what to touch. Why won't you just Budge? " I may be wrong; it's been awhile. Getti.g back into Dino, recently. On another note; people should check out the Peel sessions from '88 and Pukkelpop '91. They are stunningly good; great setlists and the quality of the recordings are beautiful.
Illuminati Brain Control no its a jazzmaster, take a close look at the pickguard or the pickups. But i can see were you coming from, the light makes it look like the upper part of the guitar is chrome

Nice!
London?
@@FaxanaduJohn yes. I was in that very room when this was recorded. early 1993.
They're doing pre-orders for a UK 12" EP on wax now. Should be released in a couple of months. 5 tunes. Thumb, Get Me, Raisans, Budge, etc.

Man my youth - where did it go - you don’t realize what you had till it’s gone… life is so fleeting….
Budge is a killer tune
Mascis spent his entire life’s allotment of energy on this single performance of budge?
Yup no more energy available. Co firmed from mascis himself.
Get Me is possibly one of my favorite dinosaur jr songs. Such an awesome song
Gotta love that back to back neil young country stomp

never seen j so energetic lol
Murph up there with the best of the best drummers. This is a really sweet representation
I agree. Murph is a beast
I wish Dinosaur were still mixed this way. At some point J's guitar became more noise then tone and they have somehow forgotten to put Murph in the mix these days.
i agree, the mixing in this is perfect
I am so glad I got all this on Vinyl but its so knackered now I have to listen on net
That snare drum tone is sexy
Peak era snare tone for them. Murph hadn't given up yet his first time around
I wonder if that's a Ludwig. Wonderful pop
I like this version of Budge
"Get me" Such a beautiful song.
The greatest
Love budge
Me TOOOOOOOOOO! 🎸 🥁 🎤!
wow, remember recording this to VHS from MTV back in the 90's, I could never find Budge, thanks man.. so good.
Same here! Had Get Me on an old VHS, never heard Budge. Me and my brother, such as countless other guys of the era I guess, always had a cassete in the videorecorder ready to catch a video. They were the playlists of the time. Sounds like another geological era...
I noticed that too... But if he doesn't want to end solos, then best not to stop him! They're too good haha
yeah this song is really good
Might be the best version of get me. acoustic peel session is sick as well as the album version but this is just too good to be true.
The telecaster had a much cleaner brighter tone than the jazz master. Perfect for "get me"
The dinosaur is anything but clean my friend.
Without a doubt that's why there one of the most underrated bands in the universe.
La grande époque !
thanks for the vids
jesus christ murph
J. PLAYING A TELE?? still one of my favorite dinosaur jr. sets
surprised me too- he had the two jazzmasters & the tele, no guitar stands, just these big beanbags. :-)
There's an interview w him saying he did all of his studio recorded solos on a tele.
@@hobiegunn My wife and I saw that a few days ago and were shocked. I have a Tele and she had the 2012 J Masic Jazzmaster.
Malupet...
Mascis looks like Tiny Tim
Where are the lyrics in Budge? I thought the verses he mumbles something. Like; " You're hitting my last nerve. I don't know what to touch. Why won't you just Budge? "
I may be wrong; it's been awhile. Getti.g back into Dino, recently. On another note; people should check out the Peel sessions from '88 and Pukkelpop '91. They are stunningly good; great setlists and the quality of the recordings are beautiful.
I think he was just so into the guitar part that he didn't sing it
@@gonfreak4951 I think youre right.
Same I thought I was going crazy
@FoolishDrunkz
You are completely right.
J's playing a telecaster...
whaaat?
So , shiockingly, he says he only uses a Telecaster in the studio. So what we hear on the records is a Tele not a JM . Crazy!
These guys sound better than Nirvana and appear more cool. Whatever happened!
What happened was Beyond '07, Farm '09 & I bet on Sky '12 :)
and Give A Glimpse of What Yer Not
Goes to prove again that the cream doesn’t rise to the top in music...
They evolved, still putting out great stuff. Saw them in Philly a few weeks ago.
@FoolishDrunkz
its a Jazzmaster
@SuperTlss during "Get Me"? nah pretty sure thats a telecaster
2:39 Get Me
MVP
Don't skip budge >.
Wait, is that a Jaguar?
Illuminati Brain Control no its a jazzmaster, take a close look at the pickguard or the pickups. But i can see were you coming from, the light makes it look like the upper part of the guitar is chrome
Dreadful.
just the way i like it!
Budge is a jam
If dreadful secretly means awesome
