Dinosaur Jr performing ‘The Lung’ from the live compilation ‘Vera Groningen - Beauty In The Underworld”
not sure of the exact date this one was recorded on but the notes say “All tracks recorded live “from the board” at Vera, Groningen, Netherlands, during 1985-1989.”

Pete Townshend (The Who) with J Mascis (Dinosaur Jr) - “See Me Feel Me”
In The Attic Live At Joe’s PubTownshend 18 Feb 2007
Very rare recording of the short lived (but awesome) live from Joe’s Pub series that Pete Townshend was doing with his wife where they would have other artists sit in for songs.
show review via jambands
Pete came out on acoustic (as he would all night) and plopped himself down next to J. and noted, “This was J.’s choice, I think it might surprise people.” J. wrinkled his forehead, pouted his lip a bit and nodded in silent approval. The crowd was hushed. J. and Pete exchanged glances. A slight strum from Pete and then he let out the words, “See me…. feel me.” Suffice to say there was a collective, “Holy shit” from the crowd. The two traded verses with the energy building to the solo which Mascis attacked voraciously, effecting an electric tone from the acoustic with a quick pedal stomp. Townshend was beaming and egged him into another solo. Goosebumps were popping throughout the 160-person venue. Mascis had seemed a slightly odd fit on paper but now it was coming together in master strokes. The song’s conclusion was met with thunderous applause. “Wow” is all I kept saying to myself. People were giving each other those “can you believe that” shoves and smiles.

When I hear people say Yuck sounds like Dinosaur Jr I always assume this is the track that are referring too. The layered guitar tracks with the swirling feedback and wah does give taste of J Mascis’ sound but listening to the whole album I hear hints of Superchunk, My Bloody Valentine, Lush, The Pixies…. Some of my favorite sounds of all time but done in a way that it is all their own and inspired by those that came before. Hard to believe these guys & gals are all under 20 and have such nice taste. :)
