Slade - Skweeze Me Pleeze Me - Earls Court London 1973 - Slade In England

[1976GeorgeMa]

I remember seeing Slade for the very first time on Don Kirshner's Rock Concert. I'm not 100% positive, but I believe this was the footage that was shown. I've seen other D.K.R.C. clips with this same watermark.

[TheShotgunslade]

When Slade were toying with the idea of making a movie the Earls Court show was filmed in entirety for[possible cinema release but apparently there was problems with gettin the sound right and the idea was shelved, Its quite unimaginable that any other rock act would have had such wonderful footage hanging around for all these years without ever seeing the light of day. I cant understand why the band didnt put their weight behind the thing and give it a dvd release with audio commentary. etc

Slade was my wallpaper as a teenager, have every album, know every song, every word.. TWS!!!

[consul1957]

Such funny feelings this song brings back from schooldays!

[sparksno1]

I was there too, eleven years old came home with a load of white oval promotional stickers with Skweeze me Pleeze me on them in red. Incredible night sunday 1st of July  I think. Alex Harvey version of Crazy Horses was also very memorable! Thanks for posting this I have been looking for ages.

I wonder if Noddy Holder Knew Mick Jagger?

[proslade]

@stonesharve Probably back in the seventies, yes and Jagger is probably a Noddy Holder admirer, but I doubt if he would admit it. I think Noddy was a more complete and energetic and rocky vocalist than Mick. He could sing more genres and styles than Jagger IMHO.

[GJBSLADE]

superb footage once again mucker

[ziomauriud]

Wow, I've the original 45 disc of this song! Fantastic!

[nevetsffen]

In my opinion this very clip must be the closest to capturing the essence of a live Slade show.

[Musiescum]

SLAYED?

[TheNoddy74]

I need to invent a time machine and see SLADE LIVE back in '73!!

[popadoig]

i was there

[johnnytheslider]

@popadoig

me too. It was my 10th birthday treat.

Alex Harvey warped my pre-teen mind forever.

lol

[ATOMIKDOG23]

Slade Rock!

[roosternj]

The Glitter Gods in all their vintage majesty...Lord where has all the music gone??

[perth45]

sadly, the new DVD 'Slade, rare and unseen' looks like its not going to be released, with unseen concert footage and interviews, I'm really sad about it, I was hoping there may be some of this Earls Court footage on there.....

[sirslice]

I remember first seeing this footage on Don Kirshner's Rock Concert around 1973. (That's when I made an audio recording of it on reel to reel).

[TonySlug]

Great.

[showaddywaddyfan]

This is a proper rock concert. Shitty concerts nowadays. 5 *****!!

[NobbyOlder]

You got a sweet tongue

You sing love songs

Can''t you learn to spell

Tak me bak 'ome

You got it all wrong

'Cos we sing that as well

[bigmagic96]

Tingles down the spine. Slade in their absolute prime. Now where did I put those plans for my time machine?

Long live the Wonderful, Mighty Slade !!

[time4sleeping]

@bigmagic96 Oh well if you want to come to my place I have a tardis to build and we could go back to those years!!

[bigmagic96]

@time4sleeping Would be an absolute pleasure. If only we could, if only we could.

[cripescate]

Yegads. I can see why there isnt many videos of them playing this live.

[bj4077]

Fantastic lyrics!!

[quelter1]

It's a mystery that Noddy's voice lasted all through the 70s and beyond

[kittyp1]

Just marvelous. Thanks for one of my favorites. xx

[tonynyva]

I havent seen this in 37 years. This performance originally aired in the state on Don Kirshners Rock Concert. That night in 1973, Slade become my favorite band. I cant believe that you found this and made it available to us after all these years. I cant thank you enough.

Best

Tony
