- Опубліковано 8 вер 2024
- Silver Jews stopped by the basement to play songs from their LP, Lookout Mountain, Lookout Sea. David Berman was quick to open up about issues close to his heart: staying kosher, Jerry Cantrell, rebuilding society through scrapbooking, and um... Rednecks.

"How much fun is a lot more fun?.... not much fun at all" David Berman could save my life. I swear.
Great stuff
He saved a lot of us, but we couldn’t save him.
He saves my life eternally ❤he is also the sweetest hero in music I’ve ever met
going through a rough patch and Berman is hitting close. Thanks for the comfort Dave.
Dammit, I hate when I only discover someone through news of their death. This guy was speaking to me all those years and I didn't know to listen. RIP.
You did your best, David, but you had expectations for yourself that no one could live up to. I did not know of you in life but wish I did. May your wounded soul be finally at peace.
Beautifully put.
"...it's been evening all day long..."
Can't believe it's 10 years since these sessions. I wish we could have saved you Dave.
What a sweet, amazing, brilliant mind....don't be sad folks, he played it the way he needed to play it.... just dig his rich legacy, his gift to us.....💙
True, but I’m still pretty effin sad.
I discovered Silver Jews in the late 90s. The albums are poetry. Incredible words. I salute David Berman.
the way she looks at him is just lovely
Strange victory, strange defeat indeed, DCB. RIP. You are loved and missed.
I fucking miss you so much already David.
another gem. love david berman. so glad at least SOMEONE knew how wonderful this dude was
Beautiful song from a beautiful man. RIP DCB
These were some underrated mother fuckers
I hope his Mrs is OK.
RIP David Berman, gone way too young!
A von Gimbut Its fucking sad man.
horribly sad. I'm sickened.
Ah, i dont know...it's real sad and it's not often i'd say this but think DB had run his race..he knew the future would hold much more pain than joy for him and he opted for peace.
@@Dangermoose-rv6bb went out on top with that final album
I'm truly gutted
😭
These sessions are so good. Beautiful performance along with amazing cinematography. There is truly something special about this video.
very thankful for these videos right now, thank you!
I'm buying the same glasses as that guy
I think he bought them at David Koresh's garage sale
What kind of glasses are they
A sample of true genius😿🎼
Its like your math teacher who always wanted to be in an indie band went and did it. Never knew about the guy but he seemed cool, Rest In Peace.
I'm gonna give you a little bit of a "fuck you" to that characterization but glad you generally dig it. Anyways,fuck you dude .
@Matt You're right. If I was an artist insecure about how my audience viewed me, I would actually beg to be pigeonholed. "I guess I'm like a 'math teacher'. wonderful. thanks a lot." A poet cartoonist who liked reading Edith Wharton in Central Park and doing heroin to Dolly Parton doesn't exactly read 'math teacher', to me--iDon't know about you.
@Matt hahaha, all good. I wasn't ACTUALLY offended. My old man was a math teacher-"with musical aspirations" no less. Anyways, hoping you're digging this music.
Is this a strange victory or a strange defeat? Maybe...both?
@@briansmith9455 both ♡
I heard of this band on Good Girl's. Really liking their music. Sad to know the singer passed. Good band. Prettiest bass player ever.
She was his wife/ex wife. Apparently they never divorced but they were separated for quite a time
Ever? You're joking
Thanks for all you let to us. Rest well
Lived the life he could live gave what he could give
I did not know he died, so sad.. I been listening to him since 2009
Amazing These Guys Are The Shit
Dave Berman and Half Man Half Bicuit are kindred spirits
Keep em comin pitchfork
if you ever wanted the definition of indie rock this is it
did the bassplayer have to be so beautiful?
Love the lead guitarist. Who is that?
🤩👍
What did they do with the fat ones...Like for reals.
who are you talking about
must be real hot where David is sitting
A real scorcher
why only bergman on the vocals? disappointing. Love the jews though
Man. Berman needs to lay off the heroin.
You were right. The dumbass never got clean & sober and it took him down. Of course he blamed his father I'm sure, and Trump, and whatever/whoever else that represented the opposite of hippie druggie lifestyle
Donald Joy jeeez i know you wrote that a month ago, but i hope you are doing better than whatever possessed you to write such a comment
This is the strange world we live in, one where people who accomplished nothing can criticize people who have accomplished something. One has given, one has lost.
I heard he killed himself because he was balding
you aren’t funny.
Scumbag
