Siouxsie and the Banshees - Arabian Knights - Live 1981

[1197541]

I love the fact that even Siouxsie admitted John was her favorite Banshees guitarist. He was fucking brilliant.

McGeoch. The best Banshee ever. What a talent he had.

[rimbauxxx]

Gracias John. Ese delay inigualable. Sigue donde estés.

[nik1969100]

No one played the guitar like John McGeoch - don't care about fucking meaningless lists. His style was totally unique.

Chile, el país más rockero de América. Apenas 15 millones y siempre los que más reproducciones tenemos.

[rimbauxxx]

Siouxie, como siempre, una reina; y McGeoch un Master.

[ghaand1994]

She is the best.

Without a doubt, one of the best S&TB concerts was in New Orleans in 1981. I have a bootleg LP that was released with photos. The quality and her voice are amazing!

[warminator]

Wow, this is very close to the original.

Such great musicians.

[mrblifil]

This is them at their height. The recording doesn't capture the drive they demonstrate here. I'm so glad they happened.

[sailingseb]

yeas ! god bless her !

[chuggerboom1]

The guitar work in this is fucking amazing.

[totenkopfdivision]

This gig should really be released on DVD. Fuck know's why it's not. I like Nocturne but this pisses all over it.

[belnj31]

Dear totenkfdivision,

This was released on VHS as a bootleg but because it was filmed professionaly, the quality is excellent.

I have this in my collection (and my collection is very huge). There are not many tracks - only the best of the concert but as stated, the quality is excellent for a VHS.

This upload was taped off from the tv playing the VHS.

I'm a Siouxsie expert LOL.

Cheers!

[belnj31]

This was released on VHS- and I have a copy LOL. . . .

[totenkopfdivision]

Hi belnj31. Is it the bootleg one you mentioned or a legit one? Although, as you say, it's only a few songs long it's definately good enough to go out on dvd, maybe as an extra to some other stuff.

[schlummbumm68]

hiho...look at amazon for 2 of the most loved live dvds from siouxsie

[jasmoran66]

I'm not a genius, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express once. Therefore, without giving too much away, let me just say that it's fairly simple to make a DVD of this show. Every track is available here and just begging to be converted. It makes a great gift. Cheers

[aschenputtel85]

[xgirlfiendx]

Schweeet

[belnj31]

I have the original VHS - EXCELLENT quality.

And - I have many old Live records which are my treasures. I have an original "The Thorn" release on record.

I did at one point have over 150 bootlegs on tape (but my mom got mad one day and threw them out) but still have a nice collection on CD, almost 75 total of original and bootleg CD's plus records.

[aschenputtel85]

so much better than the album version.

[sidrocker]

WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!! Their two performances in Brazil were superb, never to forget! Siouxsie rules!!!!

[ogvert]

Magnificent.

[jordimla]

[aschenputtel85]

[solwolfpunk]

You got to luv men who are willing to be referred to as banshees.

[juanyceleste]

Thanks for these videos! They should have released this concert commercially! Siouxsie looks and sounds amazing and so do the Banshees!
