Yo La Tengo - "From a Motel 6" - Conan O'Brien 

I'm seeing this clip for the first time. Georgia Hubley and Ira Kaplan were so young, can't thank you enough. Cheers!

Conan is actually awesome, he’s had so many stellar acts on his show I love the guy, one of the only decent talk show hosts.

Love the camera angle where it's a close-up of ira and you can see Georgia singing along in the background

If the V.U had kids, who formed a band, this would be that band.

Dont ever let anyone tell you that you need more than one chord for a song

Love the 90’s alt sound. YLT was one of many to define a generation. Good to see and hear these lost gems again.

This is such a warm, wholesome band. Like a warm blanket on a cold day.

What an incredible find. Conan presents Yo La Tengo, each fighting for a foothold with the public.

Beautiful. I have so much love for these classic Conan performances from this era. So much quality. I remember moving to Colorado when I was 22, We jammed on this album so hard for those first several years. These songs always manage to take me straight back every time.

Conan had great guest artists back then.

What a great performance, I miss those years of Yo La Tengo

Thanks for posting this! I've been looking for this for years. I watched it the night that it originally aired and was just so blown away by Yo La Tengo that I went to the record store the next day and bought Painful.

That guitar solo sounded like the Swirlies

Just saw them in Portland! Brought me back to when I 1st saw them at NYU in '96.

WFMU 91.1 loves you guys ...!!!

amazing performance.

Timeless band. Saw them twice back in the early 2000s

This cheered me up so much! Thanks for sharing this.

Greatest band ever? 🤔

Bless your heart thank you for posting the year unreal

Heart touching music ❤️

Amazing😊😊

Will have to add this to my YLT mix....

I love you Justin!!!!

I got it

fuck yes

Everything they do.

Is it possible to repeat the original solo, i wonder?

Is this Maxwell's? No it's Conan!

ヴェルヴェットアンダーグラウンドと等しく、ドラムが女性なのがミソ。
