Men looked like men wearing men's jeans back then! Haha...but seriously, awesome 80s....we seriously need time travel to get away from this drivel music today.
My dad saw him when heopened up for Journey back in '83 on the Frontiers tour and now my dad and I are going to go see him next weekend when he comes to town! I have wanted to see him for a long time now. Amazing artist, this music is all I listen to and I wasnt even around when it came out, I was born in '92 so three years after the 80s were gone.
This is Bloody Brilliant..and completely live too unlike other celebs when they play TV shows..Any chance you could post your 1983 TV performance and interview with Dick Clark on American Bandstand Bryan?..Or maybe some early Sweeney Todd live footage?..Rock On from Mark in Victoria B.C.
I saw him today and MY GOD THIS MAN IS SOMETHING SPECIAL. I've been to a lot of concert before never have i heard someone sound so flawless/authentic/raw LIVE. oh and he uses live instruments in his peformances, no backing tracks bullshit
agree most bands on stage suck and very few sound like they do on a recording ! Bryan adoms"Iron maiden" poison ! sound great in concert and pull huge numbers due to it
I always loved his guitar players tone and licks hes a talented player and what else can be said about the hit maker Bryan always catchy tunes with a little hard rock feel thrown in .
Hey does anybody know where I can find the live video of "The best was yet to come" from the live Belgium album?? I saw the video here on youtube a few weeks ago but can't find it now????????? Pleaseeeeeeee!!!!
@STEVE13061 I'm suprised the Belgium gig from '88 has never been released on dvd, it was a good show. I remember watching it over here on Channel 4 back in about '91. The cd was good as well (originally only available as an import in the UK).
I agree 100% with dorfkanal.....the best bands with the best musicians play live...spot on to the studio recording. I've been saying it for years but unfortunately it all fell on brain dead ears..!! Thanks Dorf!!!! And there are 4 brain dead people here!!
Love u fr ur comment..BA is god when it comes to real music... he is such a dedicated musician ...52 n unmarried but yet has delivered the best romantic songs ever written..love u bryan....kip performin til ma last breath..
I have seen Bryan many times.....Bryan is one of the few performers out there who is a true natural.........He gives his all at EVERY performance and appears to really enjoy every moment on stage........I don't know how he does it night after night......Have you ever seen his tour schedule? The man doesn't have to work yet is constantly on the road........I think Bryan is a living legend.......
Curious, just got the old dvd of him in Japan, 2000, is he still running with just 3 in the band including himself? Just wondering why it was bare bones on that dvd concert? Good material as usual but a little less wow in it.
Hurry folks: Bryan Adams is going to be here in San Diego on the 24 th of this month. Now, do'nt forget to buy my tickets, too. Gosh, I wish I had money to go this concert.
If anything Bryan is BETTER live than on record, I've seen him twice now and the recordings just don't do him justice. Great artists like this don't need to be edited and dubbed in recordings. If you like this I recommend his Live Live Live album.
to dorfkanal i have seen bryan adams live 5times and every time he he was better he is like a fine wine the better with age the better he gets i will always listin to bryan adams i have been a fan since 1986 and still love the music he puts out he still rocks
LOVE THIS, LOVE THIS, LOVE THIS!!!!.......BRYAN, YOU LOOK SO DARN CUTE HERE...........The best part is that if you close your eyes and just listen to the song, you can't tell if the song is being performed now in 2010 or from SNL 25 years ago... What does that tell ya?...........Simply amazing voice, Bryan........Thanks for posting this, I really enjoyed this video! xoxo.
This is why his live acts are always brilliant. Because what you get on record, you can at least except live, too. Not many musicians can deliver the same on stage. Today, so many just edit everything until it sounds ok. And when they get on stage, everyone is disappointed because of the crappy sound. But this ain't never happening with real musicians, such as good old Bryan Adams. Fan since 1980s, and I'll never stop listening BA, not even when being a granny in a wheelchair.
@Dorfkanal - Me too! :D I've been a fan since I was 10 years old, so for almost 15 years now, and I'll be a fan when I'm a granny in a wheelchair. Awesome music from an amazingly talented musician.
@Dorfkanal I agree. Too many artists are so electronified, that they are terrible live, or sink to the low levels of lip-syncing. Some other great live acts from days gone by are REO Speedwagon, Van Halen, Boston, Huey Lewis & The News, The Police, The Who, YES, and Asia, all of which I have seen.
This is terrific! I've tried to find this on old snl reruns on comedy central or on-line without success for years. Thanks Bryan. Saw you the first time that summer in San Diego. What a concert and what a singer/song writer.
you are so handsome here you sound great live maxie6512
