Them - Here Comes The Night [Very Good(+) quality] (Live/NME, 1965)

[bigeyebeanz]

I was there! So it makes me feel old, 13 at the time.

[MrChicagofan1ful]

Van Morisson is so young

[MrAllprimedup]

Van was good with Them but he just kept getting better over the years , Im glad he ended up doing all his solo work or we would have missed a lot of awesome music !!!

[westermann042010]

This singer has made a lot of solo work. Let me enlighten you his name is Van Morrisson. Some time approximately 10 years after his appearance in Them he settled down in Denmark, married a beautiful danish girl. And ever since he has made a lot of fabulous music around the world i.e. US, UK, Ireland (where he is actually from) - yes he is a remarkable maker of real good music.

@westermann042010 WOW REALLY!

[PeasLoveHarmony]

The singer ain't bad. I wonder if he ever did any solo work.

(And for the love of God and for the benefit of the countless morons on here who don't have a sense of fucking humour...that was a JOKE. Now thumb this up or I'll cut your bollocks off.)

[13loomisst]

Nice. Thanks.

[TheSunbau]

Yes, I love this more than the studio cut!! It´s raw and rough from a fantastic band. In contrast to Them it´s very interesting to check up all those great unknown bands that didn´t reach the highest level. Listen (youtube) to:

THE ZETTLERS and their versions of "Skinnie Minnie" and "Beautiful Delilah".

(What a bloody driving beat)

THE GOLLIWOGS and the tune "Tell me".

(Check up the singer - Yes - it´s him!!)

THE GANTS in "Greener Days".

(High class Mersey Sound from the Deep South - USA)

[anneliesvan]

going back almost 50 years and van morrison is still hot

[fumetti]

Boy, that was an epic error...now bought back 45 years later.

[welcome2myhell]

@fumetti error? lol

[OrangeHollowBody]

@fumetti cool huh, Van did not flinch apologize..just got on with it. Stage craft...

[InfoWarsTV2]

Don't worry Van. Once the friction of enemies dies down and they find they have nothing in common, he'll start hitting the booze and cheating on her. She will need consolation and you, you will be there for her, as you promised so long ago.. :D

[itisalwaysnow]

Great! Thank you! :)

[eljaable]

funny start he?

[treknavigator]

Nothing but young guys having a great time  Seen Them in 1966

[tillyeyesgreen]

Fantastic concert.

Beautiful song.

A nice and nostalgic flashback.

Thanks for sharing

[mitylena]

@tillyeyesgreen

super groupe les THEM...ils ont emerveilles mes annees sixties.j'en tremble quand je les ecoute..........

[fg6971]

i like this more than their studio cut. there is a version of this clip with audio of their studio recording .

NME clips are always a fun trip back to the 1960's.

[ugroseno]

Van Morrison here reminds me of Jim Morrison.. Are they related? since The Doors covered "Gloria".. just curious

[RocketNoodles001]

@ugroseno no they aint jim was american and van is irish i believe but i know they aint related and for the gloria thing the doors knew van morrison because they opened for van morrison when they played at whiskey a go go i believe as well

[harrykee]

they could never hear what they were playing over the screaming. thats why the Beatles said they stopped live shows. Notice no monitors in front of them and obviously no in ear devices like they use now

[titostacos]

Does Van start too early or do they screw up? I think they blew it.

[M1SSMAGIC]

i got that song on single mum bought it when i was young i played it 24/7 loved it now i happy i got good taste in music van,s the man n

[TheFenderplecre]

a gem

[fusejockey]

Van makes a timing error - @0:25 he starts the verse a little too soon. Good audio and an excellent song to sign off Tucson's 50,00 watt daytimer: KFIF 1550 back in the sixties..ha rock & roll:o)-

[TaxiRED]

@fusejockey Shows that its LIVE and not some miming crap mate :)

[DeSoccerRefMan]

i like this old stuff - it makes me feel young again

[wallpole]

@DeSoccerRefMan It makes me feel old.

[donkeyboy27]

Ooops. Van started too early. But he took it well.

[farone100]

Young George Ivan Morrison

[InsideStrate]

Isn't this the band "Them"?

[dowhatuwill]

@InsideStrate yes that's them lol

[daffonfire]

Sounds Incorporated.....didn't they do "Cast Your Fate to the Wind"?

[Zepster77]

@daffonfire No... that was the "Sounds Orchestral"..... thank you very much (bow to the left, bow to the right)

[pennm51]

seems no one noticed-lead singer-van morrison

[radamspse]

@pennm51

yep knew it was Van but did you see the drum set in the background ... "Sounds Incorporated" now there was a group!!!

[fumetti]

@radamspse Entirely different group...you are thinking of Sounds Orchestral.

[radamspse]

@fumetti

nup the drum set definitely is marked Sounds Incorporated and as I said a great group!

[sixtiesfan007]

Superb - I say this as a 29yr old Male who has seen The Searchers 25 times and countless other bands from the 60's... Great stuff!!

[lyndloo]
