[probrojeffro]

What's one level up from 42?

[RockyF9]

Awesome ! Can't wait to watch them live !

[elstroshitnonstop]

when 1:23 comes i can't but shake my head and say what a fucking brilliant song

[8fabius8]

which show is this?? How can I find it??? Please please tell me!!!

[polycera]

This was from the Ace in Brixton.

[arceliafm]

Pretty much brilliant!

[dlrobs]

The break at 2:50 is one of the coolest chord progressions ever! Love the song in part just for the bridge.

[arceliafm]

@dlrobs ditto times 10!

[stevoe1000]

Can someone call an ambulance......cause that bass player is sick.....

[Mandosami]

OMG - Phil and mark are so insc here!!! listen closely to the dual bass snaps/snare hits at 1.47 - brilliant stuff

[sirmoog]

There are very few bands still in their early 20s playing at this level of skill and passion... Love their early stuff!

[Geeljasjes]

Great Minimoog solo by Mike.

[jdubhman]

this early 80's stuff is superb. amazing quality on this one.

[tess1972rn]

OMG this is awesome!! Ryan, are you keeping all these perfomances locked in a vault somewhere?? Almost everytime I see something I never have before it's posted by you. Thanks for sharing!

[Sansana]

Another great band who was ruined by "Commercial"

[beng1lh00ly]

Is it me, or is that Wally Badarou with the glasses in the audience at the beginning?

[Mandosami]

oooohhh yeaaah!

[george00719]

I cant believe this is live, sound like the album,,don't you think?!

[jonannlou]

in my book this is perfection :O)

[yakitoriJH]

GREAT GREAT GREAT!

Thanks again Ryan! Glad you are back!

[ScottMarquis]

Wow! . I remember this as "Late Night In Concert BBC2"..

OOoooh Philp you could rattle a skin matey..........

[mtd535]

Thanks so much for sharing this video. I remember being at a concert when Phil, Mark and Mike do the "combined drum solo" I remember thinking this is the most musically talented brit funk band. At the time there was no one better live, in my opinion. A real showcase for Phil G's solo drumming abilities as well as his impeccable groove. Thanks again for sharing, brings back some good memories.

[Mowac]

This sounds exactly like the 'Rockpalast' gig from that year...........brilliant

[DrJohnners]

I thought I'd seen all the footage there was...this was something else, never seen 43 performed like that before.

I still can't get that baseline right with the slides...grrr

[Ry42Back]

Keep practising mate you'll get there thanks for the comments.

[videoit]

@Ry42Back Hi Ryan....i made a comment on LOVE MEETING LOVE....ace cafe in brixton in 81....i was there...do you remember..lol...you told me it was hitchin 83...you was right...THIS WAS THE ONE I WAS AT...and i remember the bbc trucks outside with loads of cable all over the place......this was such a great perfomance....why did they move their music from this.....The Early Tapes was the one from me.

[Ry42Back]

@videoit I do remember i hope you are well and i agree this was the era for me also fantastic sounds instrumentals and sheer musicianship,but time moves on unfortunately but it's nice to have memories of this great great time in music.

[tidmouthshed]

@DrJohnners isn't this coverage of the Old Grey Whistle test in Brixton in 81!

[videoit]

@tidmouthshed yes, and i was there.

[padseenoodle]

Fantastic. Thanks, Ryan.

[DocSoul11]

Speechless, fantastic track, fantastic bass sound, only equalled by Mr Pink on the Physical Presence live album...

[GerryCoyle]

I remember videoin' this when it was aired & rewinding at 7:48 tryin' to work out what the hell Mark was doin'....ha,haaa!! Gr8 memories of a gr8 time in music. Thx for posting this Ryan:-)

[GerryCoyle]

King is KING! Fan-feckin'-tastic:-)

[wrh1984]

this is mustard

should have stuck to this stuff instead of all that running in the family shite!

great stuff!

[Ry42Back]

I told you i'd get round to it eventually.

[wrh1984]

never doubted it! in my opinion their early stuff is much better, hope you got some more gems like this lined up!

[divinesalvia]

[ramon709]
