Mac DeMarco here. You're watching 'What's in My Bag?'
Uh-huh.
Alright!
Yeah.
First at all, in the country clearance bin
Not country but one dollar. 'Minute by Minute' by the Doobie Brothers.
Quintessential Doobies. Look at young Michael McDonald here
Screw the rest of the album, but 'What A Fool Believes'
That track? Ok, for one buck? Ok, not bad.
I already have this but y'know, for a dollar, might as well give it to somebody
unless it's totally banged up
Looks okay to me. There you go. Great deal.
Next up: Dirty Beaches. Old friend in mine, Alex
used to get coffees with him, he likes to go to weird old diners
He's really into Twin Peaks, that kind of stuff
And I love this new album of his.
Well, it's not so new anymore, but we used to listen to it on tour
all the time and I never got it on vinyl so here we go
If you see this Al, love you, miss you, hope you're doing okay
Next up: the Modern Lovers
Y'know this is just one of those albums
Classic for me, love it, Jonathan, look at him too
Super young, beautiful boy
I've always loved this album, but I've never had it on vinyl
I think because, up until recently I've been way too poor to buy vinyl, so here we go.
One time, actually, in L.A. we got to play FYF Fest
He played right before us. That was great.
We were watching them from behind, him and Tommy
I love Jonathon. Huge inspiration for me. Really cool.
Here we got a little song cycle
Van Dyke Parks
My roommate Eddie turned me on to Van Dyke
It's a little bit out of my normal listening bracket, I guess.
It's kinda like you gotta turn your brain on to listen to this a little bit more
Which is cool for me y'know. Gave a chance, liked it a lot
Get it on vinyl, maybe give it to Ed, maybe keep it for myself. You never know.
Cool. Next up: Bruce Springsteen
The man, himself. Working man's hero here
blue-collar boy, beautiful. Oh, wait a minute.
Very similar flannel
very similar text, very strange
funny thing is had no idea, did this, I was trying to rip off the album artwork from another album
called 'Hosono House' by this guy Haruomi Hosono. Trying to do the font.
My friends used to call me "The River Person" because I, y'know
I'm a little bit of a river person sometimes
The fact that it's called 'The River'
and the fact that... they got a big kick out of that one I think.
So there you go. Bruce.
Do you have a pen?
No I don't.
Does anybody have a pen?
It's ok, do you think I could just get a photo really fast?
Yeah, yeah, I'll sign it for you afterwards though.
I hope you don't mind if we put you in the 'What's in My Bag?'
No problem. Thank you.
Here you go. God bless.
Ok, next up we have: Prince 1999
A lot of people think this is kind of a weird one, not a lot of people's favorite, but it's got, y'know...
Little Red Corvette is a great, great song. This has Raspberry Beret too, I believe.
That's Around the World in a Day. Nevermind.
Y'know what, I thought this was Around the World in a Day.
Fuck this 1999 bullshit.
And last but not least: 'Wizards' by Ralph Bakshi
A great movie. Saw it once on TV.
There's a scene where these two priests are running around
paddling each other in the ass. When I saw this I was like nine years old
Very confused. I was like, what the hell did I just watch?
It was on the Space channel
Took me years and years to figure out what it was
and I finally found this at a store when I was like 14 or something
Watched it, opened the door to all of Ralph Bakshi's movies
and then from there it took me to Robert Crumb's stuff
all over the map so, love Ralph
and glad to have this one again.
Well? What now?
Huh.
I don't know. Oh, why don't you sit there for a couple hours while I figure it out
Great movie right here. Yeah.
Well thanks so much for sharing with us and coming in today.
Pleas. Pleas.
When we see you next time, it'll be on stage.
Alright. Peace.
