- Before These Crowded Streets was released on 4/28/98. This was a special that aired around that time. Produced by Sam Erickson.
Man, this brings back so many memories of 1998. To be 20 years old and care free. I've got goosebumps.
I was 21 then. First time I saw DMB as well, 12/98. Miss those days
how lucky we are to have existed in this slice of human history to be able to sit down and listen to this album
Pig......... We are incredibly lucky to be a part of these times with this band! Heres to Summer 2022 and many many many more!
Carter is the best rock drummer of the 21st century
Danny Carey has entered the chat…
He's not a rock drummer.
Steve Lillywhite....that moment when you realize you cherish every album he's produced and didn't know he was the unseen hand.
lillywhite sessions, the best
Amen to that
he brought order to something that was inherently chaotic (both are good and necessary)
The way he mic's drums is incredible. They sound so crisp and full
Great to see that even Dave struggled in the studio. You don't ever see the hard parts.
i just cant believe that you could actually turn on a tv at one point and see THIS on! literally cannot fathom that
Truly a MAGNUM OPUS, this is one of those albums that is every bit as challenging and rewarding to LISTEN to as it was for them to record. You put this album on and listen to the last note. Timeless.
It dethroned the Titanic soundtrack.
My favorite studio album thus far. I can listen to this on replay for days, years.
Without a doubt their best work.
damn dave had really hit his stride here....thats a man that is doing EXACTLY what he's supposed to be doing in life....he moves that band with the sheer force of his will!
Dave brings me to the brink of tears sometimes, such a wonderful human
He’s a liberal fuctard.
When mtv was about music. Miss those days.
Nothing but love for these gentlemen. Love for 25 years.
Musics changed so drastically tho. This was there last great record
Ah, pre-9/11 New York and BTCS. It was a good time, indeed.
wow thanks for bringing this music documentary back again. Dave Matthews Band - the greatest band ever.
Remnember when Mtv didn't suck?
So cool to see stuff like this. I've said this on other videos but I'll say it again: as a 21-year old who's only gotten to know and fall in love with DMB in the last few years, it's incredible to be able to who they were in the '90s. I'm so lucky.
It's a shame there are no shows on TV like ultrasound anymore. Back in the 90s these kinds of shows were some of my favorite to watch. no one nowadays cares anything about the people they listen to. the songs are so fake and manufactured that there's basically no human beings behind them
there are docs all over youtube about the making of certain albums. typically something the band themselves have made. try searching you might be surprised
The general public barely gives a shit anymore. What are they gonna show? The drums being sample replaced and quantized, vox being autotuned? There's so little substance left in immediately available and popular music that there's nothing to show for it. 5 writers recycling lyrics? When Dave here has the AUDACITY to be humble about his incredible penmanship
@@SammyMakepeace I highly recommend checking out Brandi Carlile.
BTCS is my favorite Dave album. I've been a Dave super fan for 20 years. The Stone is my all time fave DMB song
Before these crowded streets.... still my Dave Matthews Band favorite album.... Dreaming tree one of my favorite songs
Absolute gold! This album was a life changer for me. So much inspiration!
Best album by far track to track, if I had to hear one live from start to finish before these crowded streets is definitely my selection Alanis is a must
Exactly my thoughts,word for eord
Still my favorite album by them and still in my top 10. It's timeless.
I have one of the precious few vinyl copies of this album. It is beyond outstanding and my favorite album of his catalogue.
I feel like this moment in time was DMB at their absolute best...and DMB at their best is better than all the rest
You my friend, are a saint. Thank you so much for posting this.
Like being in a time machine to some of the greatest days of my life. Love DMB forever and always...
Yes!!!!
So excited! Been waiting over 10 years to see them. This Friday South Lake Tahoe my son and I!😍
What a fantastic interpretation of that tune
Released the month i got out of the military. Home with my friends and family. This album was the soundtrack! Thanks for the lovely memories!
I wish they play their music again on regular radio.
Obviously the best DMB studio album, but more than that, one of the greatest albums of all time
Thanks for the upload... brah. This album changed my life. April 28, 1998.
BTCS was peak genius. RIP Leroi 👑💜👑💜👑
Love this. I could remember taping this on my vcr and watching it over and over. It is one of my favorite albums by them. It still gives me goosebumps listening to these songs and how creative they are.
Omg!!! I miss the 90s so bad.
Just saw my first live DMB show last week and it was AMAZING! Still jammin just as hard as they did nearly 30 yrs ago! Nothin but LOVE for this legendary band😍🙌🍻
Finding this video was a Christmas miracle. Such an amazing time for the band and the memories these songs bring to me.
What an absolute gem!! Totally made our day 😁 THANK YOU!!
Goosebumps! I freaking love this band! You can not deny the love they have for each other and the love of what they do!
This is amazing :) Thanks for posting! I had no idea they didn't already have these songs down before going into the studio. This is my favorite record.
Be in peace Leroi x
LeRoi was amazing...miss his presence
I had this on VHS way back when. It was sent to a college radio station and my friends smuggled it out and gave it to me!!
Thanks for the upload... I remember my excitement for this album... and this just added to it after seeing this "ultra sound". My favorite album of all time and simply a masterpiece.
thank you for posting this
This is awesome! Ever since I heard this absolutely gorgeous album for the first time I've wanted to know more about it.
Man... I happen to be visiting a friend at UVA and I knew when I heard them. It wasn't a stretch to think to myself. "These guys are going to be a major band very soon." Funk, country and jazz, in a rock format mixed together perfectly. Not a weak link in the bunch.
God, MTV used to be so great.
Awesome. I'd love to see all the cut footage.
9:42. Goosebumps. I need the master tapes of this song.
It's interesting on the final mix they only kept the final "don't drink the water yeah" phrase of that intro.
Easily their best album
I really love this album, but the interludes in between the songs are some of the most interesting forgotten gems of the band's career.
I actually thought they were saying "love head" when I first heard it. haha
I just still think that adding backup vocals to Stay was a mistake.
the entire band version of Stay is a mistake compared to that acoustic dave and tim version
Thanks for the upload. GREAT Record. I was listening to this in-period but somehow never saw this doco. Unfortunately gone are the days of that signature Crack from Carter's snare drum :-(
Damn!!!! 98 I was just born how I wish I was 16 in that time
Wow, you just made me feel old!
I was 18 and those were some great days
I was 17 and remember the thrill of hearing don't drink the water on the radio for the first time
I was 27 years old in 1998 and the 90's were the BEST time to be twenty something.
I turned 16 in 98🤘 Great time to grow up. Awesome music for sure.
thank you for posting this! the album is a masterpiece i love it so!
oh yeah and Carter and Dave are like musical soulmates i love how well they work together.
Seeing my 19th and 20th shows this summer. Gotta love a solid live dmb show.
I found his comments on living in the moment to be most interesting. These guys are creators. The creative process is long and arduous-you have to build on top of all the work you’ve already done. It’s nice that this band seems to all get along better than-say- Pink Floyd. 20 years later they haven’t been able to recapture the magic of BTCS, though Busted Stuff was also great.
love this even tho it was 1998. thank you 9-2-20
Theese the day. 😂😂
This was everything I needed tonight.
I love this Sooooo much.
They were great last week February 2023 in Phoenix
Brilliant amazing bunch of guyZ 🌼
so good...ty
Oh My! The best album ever! When I fell in Love with my hubby! Brilliant! Soo close to my heart!💙🙏💙
Magical Album!💜☮️🌛🌟🎸
This album is such a game changer
Those notepads with the scratch lyrics would be worth multi millions today
If someone other than Dave himself owns that notebook of lyrics, I have a serious amount of envy.
all so young holy smokes
Damn that was amazing
“Im more critical of the stuff I write that’s depressing....” -Dave .....there ya go: why the Lillywhite Sessions were what they were, got scrapped/shelved, replaced w Everyday, then revisited and released on Busted Stuff once Where Are You Going? and You Never Know emerged and were added to lighten it up. .......insight and foreshadowing in that phrase right there.
Magical Album!💜☮️🌛🎼🎸🌟☮️💜

20th anniversary for this album. I was 2 years old when it came out.
Happy 25th Birthday BTCS!
Before these crowded streets is my favorite album of theirs of all time. To wedge the dreaming tree is my favorite song of the album. Something about that song
✨🎼🥰✨😍✨my Favourite musician, band, music…!
This was the first DMB LP I ever loved. I was listening to Don't drink the Water and it took me. I had no choice.
who would dislike?
this really is fascinating. the band and dave especially felt the pressure to write new songs in the studio and steve was able to whip them into this incredible sound. he wrangled their insanity and he is a production genius. dave was on the edge of manic depression and he succumbed to it the following year during the lillywhite sessions. that album would have been so well made but they must have butt heads with steve and that is so unfortunate. they didnt realize what they had with steve. everyday was okay but it was a reaction and dave and that producer wrote it without the band. when the band got back in the studio after busted stuff they had a producer who was a yes man and just made easy loops for the band to stay positive about. it is what it is. will always cherish these gems before stand up came out. i feel it made the band limit their potential because it was easier to do.
5:53
I love him to pieces.
Masterpiece
MY FAVORITE ALBUM
who would fucking dislike this video
When LeRoi died...so did a big chunk of DMB...they were never the same...
True very true
rushbum I agree. I love old Dave like this, but have never liked them nearly as much without Roi.
I liked 2009-2010 but its gotten too soft in the past few years
Best album of the 90's. A true masterpiece IMO.
I don't go anymore, haven't been since 2016. The last one I went to I just didn't like the way they sounded. The sound that I fell in love with was/is gone.
this is their best album- Ive always preferred just Dave and Tim, one voice and 2 acoustic guitars.... This album was the best use of the BAND ..
Their best albums are:
1. Big Whiskey and the Groo Grux King
2. Before These Crowded Streets
3. Stand Up
Tell me why I’m wrong below
I’ll keep going:
4. Busted Stuff
5. Under the Table and Dreaming
6. Away from the World
7. Crash
8. Everyday
9. Come Tomorrow
10. Walk Around the Moon
The last South African world sounding Dave record....then Dave went straight rock.....
Not a good album since this one
Straight Pop. Not rock
My third favorite DMB album is BTCS. UTTD and Crash are 1,2
How did you get it without the MTV logos appearing regularly in the top right? THe version I have seems like the colors are a little better but the fine detail on this one here is increased. I hope they get the source and put as good a quality as they can on a CD+Blu-ray deluxe edition next year, this has always been one of my fave vids. I expect the original source is 480i video but still, as clean as we can get it I'm happy. This is about the best looking I've seen to date.
great people!
This is sooo good copperpot.
goose bumps across the board. Goose bumps! I hope I never see these on a goose. LOL!
Homework right here
Happy 24th Birthday BTCS!
Make more duets with Alanis!!! Magical!!’
Dave's pure reaction at 14:37 head swings around "there's 8000 of us...850,000 people" 😂😂
After this album these guys weren’t the same. They lost a lot of their personality after their album with the most personality
I think it had a lot to do with RCA ditching Steve Lillywhite, and bringing in Glen Ballard. I think they tried to recover with Away From the World, but now it's a completely different band.
