From now on, What's in My Bag? shall be known as What's in Rick's Bag and every episode will just be Rick Astley talking about things he enjoys. This is what the people want.
-
Rick Astley is a Bauhaus fan. I love this. This makes my whole life better.
-
This are the best episodes. When the person has actual stories behind their picks
-
The band "Japan" must be one of the most under rated & influential bands in history. In the last 10 years i've heard everyone from Rick Astley, Gary Numan, & members of Duran Duran, Tears For Fears, The Smiths, Depeche Mode, Skinny Puppy, Ministry say they were fans.
-
What a genuine, well-spoken, passionate, sweetheart of a guy. Some great picks, too. Who knew?!?!
-
It is impossible to dislike Rick, such a nice guy & pretty decent musical taste too đđ
-
One of the best episodes Iâve ever watched. Loved how detailed, and passionate he was about every album he picked.
-
That first Crowded House album is an absolute classic. And Rick is so eclectic in his musical taste. It's fantastic. I'd love hear him cover Joy Division someday. He's got the voice.
-
I feel so blessed by seeing Rick Astley with Bauhaus's The Bela Session LP in his hands
-
I thought of him as an 80s has-been but in 2019 I was at a festival in Denmark and with nothing else really happening I went to see his set. Much of the crowd was too young to remember him from the 80s but they knew his music and loved him. Rick returned the crowd's love and I had an absolute blast. He encored with Highway to Hell so I wasn't surprised to see it in this video.
-
Top bloke, down-to-earth and knows how to express what's meaningful to him about music without needing to be pretentious. I second the sentiment by someone else in the comments that I'd gladly watch a series of him just talking about music.
-
Who'd have thought. Selling England by the pound is my absolute favourite Genesis album. Pure escapism.
-
Holy shit. Rick Astley just became the absolute goat for being a Japan fan. David Sylvian's Solo work is also so so amazing
-
I'm glad to see online content out there that humanizes a musician rather than simply treating them as a meme or a product of their time.
-
I can't believe I am saying this, but this is my favorite "What's In My Bag?" episode! Well spoken, kind, knowledgeable and super fricking chill (and great picks, my god, Tori Amos, Bauhaus, Japan???)
-
Out of all the incredible whatâs in my bag episodes, I never thought Rick Astley would be my favourite, what a genuine and passionate music lover!
-
Got the privilege of seeing Rick do a gig playing songs by The Smiths and it was fucking sick, really pulled off the vocals
-
OMG if Rick Astley made a prog rock album, Iâd pre-order the limited vinyl in a heartbeat!
-
Under the pink is a masterpiece. Mad respect for Rick Astley for being a fan .
-
This was unexpectedly amazing. He's so articulate about what music means to him.
