[Music] Iconic Live Performances on video

[WATFORD zero]

I'm a sucker for an extended guitar solo. Gilmour and Prince. Prince is just joyous and the guitar is chucked away at the end and you never see it land.

Steve Ferrone was just behind him playing drums and he claims he never saw where Prince's guitar went

Well BB said it was his best

Spine shivering..

Great video , my impression has been that he was ' last weeks news ' until the British invasion brought him back into the limelight..

 

[hart's shirt]

Feel free to turn up the volume.

 

[AmexRuislip]

Awesome, there's not many Oasis live videos on YouTube I've not seen but this a new one for me

We were lucky to get tickets, as there were a lot celebs (hanger on ers').....
Gallagher brother, Goldie and Kate Moss to name but a few.
All in front of us

Seen them so many times, they never underperform

I must see the geniuses before it’s too late, a dream come true.

I’m disorganised on checking gig dates. I’ll probably go on my own for the first ever time … happy to do that.

This is pretty much New Order at their zenith. They were second on the bill to Garbage, and Shirley Manson made a comment about 'how are we supposed to follow that?'

I saw New Order headline Reading a few years earlier, think it was 1993. Sugarcubes were on before them, and had to endure the crowd chanting for New Order throughout their set.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

I’m probably the only one who’ll like this apart from maybe @Harry Wilson's tackle The last 7 minutes was cut, unfortunately.

Yes, that's mint. The album version, Pawn Hearts. Lovely Paul Whitehead cover (he did other Charisma label artist covers, notably Genesis. But you knew that ).

Did I mention seeing them (without Jackson - after the spat) at Royal Festival Hall, when Hugh hit the organ, rumbles, and Hammill announces:

"Some call me SATAN.... others have me..... GOD"

That was probably the most astonishing moment at a gig I can recall, apart from the entrance of Drs of Madness at the Dome ("Waiting") in 75. Middle aged bloke next to me says "you're f***ing kidding me!". Hammill wasn't.

And we were off, to the bromine chambers.

As David Coleman would have said, "Extraordinary!"

 

[Brian Fantana]

This is the correct answer. Utterly breathtaking each time I watch it.

As much as I like New Order I would have killed to see The Sugarcubes

 

[Peacehaven Wild Kids]

Their last three albums have contained some of their best songs; I don't think there's a duff track on Hippopotamus.

Indeed, Edith Piaf for starters is up there with their best

 

[Randy McNob]

Talk Talk Live Montreux 1986. brilliantly put together set and simply Breathtaking vocal performance from Mark Hollis

 

[HantsSeagull]

Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense 1983...
Changed the way concerts were filmed?...

[nicko31]

Saw them twice. First time they did their set mostly in icelandic second time in English. Absolutely brilliant both times.
