[robtaylormusic]

Was there too... saved all summer to go to this and it was amazing... 6 years later I am working the Roadmender in Northampton and get to tell the boys off for inviting people and not putting them on the guest list... Priceless!

[MILdoeswork]

Oasis are a good band ? They are a band, that's about all. OCS are a real band who rock.

[gazzabification]

long live freakbeat

[ra83clement]

The supernaturals were the support band and they were fantastic great energy but OCS much better great gigs

[ra83clement]

[youngie123]

@Dodgemeister83 best off trying to buy the dvd off ebay or something

[jimmima121]

So underrated. Those lads are without a doubt in my mind, one of the best British bands in the last 20 years, easily. OCS!

[JoeyBackus]

The only Thing I can do is chillin' when I'm listening to this song

[spikebebop25]

I love this band! Thanks for sharing!

[37kayc]

[drewbnkerry]

my mate, eypie was at this concert. said it was the business apart from the alchol ban, but he's a sneaky fecker

[djjohner1984]

First and I went to see live....well when I say first.......

[pooliepete]

these tunes stand the test of time,some of the best of british and very underrated for such a great band and sound

[kaedo218]

savage performance!! deffo a classic :)

[jimmyzgames]

found these by accident on a heavy stereo youtube playlist and know i love em

[Huckleberrygrove]

Check out live versions of Get Away (though watch it will probably bring out Get Blown Away on any search as well).

[Huckleberrygrove]

Maybe I just don't know enough but does any modern guitarist come up to Cradock?

[o0conor0o]

@Huckleberrygrove john frusciante

[Huckleberrygrove]

@o0conor0o I should have said 'modern British...' As I'm not a guitarist I find it hard to properly compare such differing styles. Squire is an easier comparison for me.

[PegGonzalez]

@Huckleberrygrove

John Squire, Jack White, Matt Bellamy, Josh Homme...

[Huckleberrygrove]

@PegGonzalez Squire isn't really doing much these days, is he? But his stuff on 2nd Coming and with the Seahorses was amazing. I wouldn't have thought White as good, but it is a very different style. Bellamy I also wouldn't have put up to this standard--though again I like some of it. Homme I would consider the best of that list. But, I am no guitarist... Weller, maybe?

[PegGonzalez]

@Huckleberrygrove

I'd say what else makes a guitarist great is distinction. White, Bellamy, Homme and Squire(Still in Craddocks era I meant)have distinction.

Weller is good and has alot of soul but I wouldn't put him in the same league as Craddock.

[Huckleberrygrove]

@PegGonzalez Yeah, you probably have a point. Concerning Weller, I was forgeting that most of the best guitar on his albums is Cradock!

My thoughts on this are most likely influenced by personal taste, as well--not playing makes it particularly hard to judge by an objective standard.

[Gidster19]

@Huckleberrygrove i prefer Kenwyn House from Reef. I think he writes a better riff than Craddock. i always feel that Craddock is trying to overdo things a bit, he's a bit too showy for my tastes. Kenwyn has a lot more groove and funk in his licks and his songs have better structure. For sure though, Craddock is a really good player. Works hard at his playing.

In a nutshell, when i hear Craddock i think "he's a good guitarist". When I hear Kenwyn i think "fuck yeah dude rocks!".

[AndreAmeli]

i'm from brazil, one day about 11/12 years ago i saw this video in tv here, just change my life!!

[punkit743]

Was at this gig, it was amazing. My mate got filmed at end after about 3-4 takes due to him swearing, he managed to shout "it was excellent" rather than it was f' in excellent. Something like that, there is a full gig of this

[killutilludi]

noel gallagher recons beatles were biggest influence ,i recon he he is a ocean colour scene wannabe front man 

[ukandoittowithkandoo]

Fowler carries the band, when Craddock is smashed.

[durt567]

Pure magic !!!

=)

[solskjaerutd]

Who are the seven knobs that dislike this.

For fuck sake your ears must be painted on!!

[darthvadersgay]

Worst live version i have ever heard.

[snos31]

beautiful

[falky999]

what a fuckin tuuuuune one of the best live bands out there simply ace!!!!

[fidski]

The most underated band of all time.....fact.

[MODPaulWellerLOVER]

omfg these guys r ACE

[hdm67]

I think a band that can perform that well live is a great band, because so many simply can't.

[juliechirnside]

does anyone know if theres a dvd of this concert at stirling castle ???

[fletchdies]

What a show!

[angien27]

[cradlehawkmain]

EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bipbipandthebippers]

[TheMoss101]

[Renegademaster15]

[perfectnessx]

[Bluezulu17]

What wrong with the way hes holding the guitar kid?

[liamjwolves]

maybe he's on about the guitar swinging and holding it vertical.

[lucasfola]

you gotta be good to be allowed to hold a Les Paul like that

loved this

[cphammersmad]

it somehow sounds even better when its pefromed live

great song

[67GreenT]

I was there that night, we parked 3 miles away and walked through the forest to get to the gig. Just so we would get a quick getaway afterwards.

But we were so wasted when we came out we couldn't find the car...

Good times :D

[thesweeney1969]

@67GreenT sounds great

[werukano1]

@67GreenT good job you didn't park 100 miles away:D

[BrandtCooley]

The guitarist kinda looks like the singer from Silverchair

[jimncezhightide]

craddock is a fuckin legend !!!!!!!!!!!

[67GreenT]

Craddock is indeed a legend.

[liamjwolves]

is this available on dvd?

[overravelled]

Amazing! Where they have been all this time? XD

[67GreenT]

haha, OCS have been going strong since the nineties

stop listening to radio 1 , lol

[Damion1137]

half the gig is on there dvd called "filmed from the front row" with all there music videos on to.. the whole gig can be bought on tape. but who watches tapes these days?? lol

[liamjwolves]

yeah cheers, i bought it yesterday, brilliant dvd :), interviews aswell.

[unfamiliar2]

This is from their DVD/Box set that came out early in the 2000s. I forget the name, but it's something like their Anthology. Good DVD.

[barson66]

its true colours mate

[PoffyTheCucumber]

Got a touch of KISS in there, am I right? Some 100,000 YEARS goin' on and maybe a little bit of ROCKET RIDE as well...

[MUDSHARK111]

[Marky1888]

[robsouthyorkshireuk]

[grungesoundsgood]

[dadasha1]

Fuck your shit face mum...

[grungesoundsgood]

dont think so pal, thing is though... i have shagged your mum the fat whore and ill be honest....it wasn't great, the words dead whale spring to mind.

[mickosabian]

Chave? Chav maybe? Oasis are far from chav, they can't help who takes an intrest in thier music now can they? But your right steve Craddock is a better guitarist than Noel G. Cool as fuck...

[TobyEllisSongwriter]

Agreed, Oasis, Ocean Colour Scene etc is Mod not chav. Scooters > Mopeds!

[Petchhyy]

Is that a Frenchman who wears a hoodie and stabs people?

Oasis are far from Chavs, they are a good band just like OCS.

[rcpml]

what year is that?

[zitotiz]

just saw lock stock and two smoking barrels awsome movie btw but im even more glad that it helped me find this video omg this is music fck yea

[enks50]

fanfuckingtastic

[baddaboomb]

fuckin ace band british legends, criminally underrated these guys. They shoulda bin fuckin world dominating goliaths.

[Phatul]

Even tho I've been around the band since I was little Im not even being biased but Ive gota agree with that statement, top comment.

[fjbaigorri]

I can not believe it. Only 90 thousand people have seen this video.

[machinesdontwork]

Ooooow yeah!

[mickosabian]

WOAH!!!!!!

[marcelcruzeiro]

Top... it loses a bit for the studio version, cause there are more guitars recorded on the album, so sometimes it feels a lil bit empty live, but it's great anyway!

[annastereophonics]

ocean colour scene are amazing.

[evanessence5110]

steve is my GOD

[EliaszNowak1993]

Super song! Yeah! :)

[punkjazz28]

I think the first 20 seconds of this are every budding guitarists wet dream! What a fuckin track!!

[Thecrimson08]

[desmond17oreilly]

very like thin lizzy

[HeartOfTheBeat]

Phil Lynott was born in Brum, this band are from Brum too.

[HeartOfTheBeat]

oops meant to post as a reply to something... somewhere... erm... did I mention I bought 'Sway' on 45rpm early 90s after being sold it from Brian who worked in a record store Brum. The days when indie sevens filled every record store's racks. And days before R&B meant some shite act needing some Cher style voice enhancment.  Also sold a food blender to guitarist in Rackhams in 2001. I'll get me bloody coconut you monkeyoids.

[wolfbrother2501]

rip phil lynott the legand

[stevieontour]

Phil is paddy mate, Don't matter where he was born

[HeartOfTheBeat]

Brum born Dublin raised. Could have been t'other way around, I'm sure he'd still be a legend.

[heinekensalo]

I bet none of you pussies even noticed the Band of Gypsys riff they pull in the middle of the song....

[liamjwolves]

pussies? get a grip kid.

[steb1990]

youre well hard you can abuse people on the internet where they cant see you

[heinekensalo]

Ahhh man...None of you did know what I was talking about...and you're getting all mad?

[belfastlawd91]

[liamjwolves]

[ganderson25]

Oh man I was at one of the stirling castle gigs, is that how long ago it was? shit man lol amazing night. Quality

[antimilitargirl17]

[brfczander]

[ZurabKhizanishvili]

You mean Kasabian sound so much like Ocean Colour Scene?

*tut*

[brfczander]

[ZurabKhizanishvili]

LOL...I did notice your username. Yes, I am a Rovers fan and not the actual Zurab. I used the first name that came into my head...hehe.

[brfczander]

[kayefionamackay]

I was at this gig - it was amazing! And enjoyed the other two nights from my back garden....

[darthvadersgay]

how bad does steve craddock wish he was paul weller??

Sad

[craiged18]

Steve Craddock wishes he was Paul Weller? LOL Simmer Down

[darthvadersgay]

Look at him! He used to hang around Weller like lovesick teenager!

Copies him to a T!!

[fatface9000]

yea man

[mickosabian]

As much as Steve Craddock is a bit of an arsehole, you still have to ask god to carry on blessing him.

[lurdab81]

man what a great bassline, the whole track just sound as fresh as it did when it was released *****

[scumerfielder]

i met ocs in a bar b4 a gig 1 time steve n simon top lads but the drummer just sat there trying to b cool and important what a dick he was so up his own arse .very underated band

[HollyDollyDoodlePops]

I was there!!! there amazing!!

[kittehhatetube]

Just as something a little different to the general Weller/Craddock praise, the drummer grinning like a loon smacking drums rather made me chuckle. The nod at the end to kill it... :D

[wolfbrother2501]

i've loved this song ever since i first saw that opening scene to lock stock

[rabaldo1985]

Quality band, they played this in stirling - my hometown btw! went to see them dec 18th at the barrowlands, they wer fukin amazing! what a nyt! O.C.S - O.C.S - O.C.S!

[CrookzDJ]

quality, grew up with this band. love the fact that they, and the the charlatans are almost underground!

[cphammersmad]

great song great band i should go and see them live

[thekosmos7]

Fucking rocking tune! Steve is definitely up there with the top guitarists of all time!

You got to see them live to really appreciate how amazing they are...they blow me away every time...

Wish Steve all the best with his solo album 'The Kundalini Target'...top bloke!

[federicoauddino]

My goodness!!!!!

[killerdude38]

dont forget, slash was born in england. eric clapton, steve craddock, jimmy page, david gilmour loads

[sagopd]

OCS have been my no.1 musical passion for the past 13 years and always will be. The best U.K. band ever! Always thought it's a shame they could not record the superb outro that Hundred Mile High City live has onto the studio version.

[mickosabian]

Get on that fuckin' intro though! Second to none.!

[mickosabian]

I met weller and Craddock at the BBC, proper down to earth Mr Weller was, but Craddock was a bit stuck up his own arse..........Good night though all the same and a free bar to go with it. Must'nt grumble.

[thekosmos7]

Think you caught Steve on an off night mate, I've met him a few times and he has always been a top bloke...I actually found Weller to be a moody git and I am a life long Weller fan....

[theautumnstone69]

supurb choon and band

[dopemansl]

when i saw lock stock..& heard this at the beginning when bacon & eddy got chased..just gave me goosebumps! best song & movie everr!

[SIMONHATELEY]

[silverdale247]

FUCKIN' CHOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!!!

Lock Stock, one of the best soundtrack albums EVER!!!!!
