I have this and Bikini Red, are there more?

I just got everything I wanted for Christmas. This is the best video MTV ever aired. Remember when they actually played music instead of swamp ginnys from Jersey punching and fucking each other. Man I miss the 80's. I wonder if I can find Belly of the Whale by Burning Sensation ?

@joeytwosubs I have a 45 of that tune. I'll try to digitize and post as a vid...

[hairwayz]

Thanks for uploading again. I liked how a whole bunch of people in your last upload had seen this on Radio With Pictures in NZ and never forgotten that moment. Shame we lost those comments.

I saw them at the SF Civic auditorium, April first 1988. They opened for Echo and the Bunnymen. It was a great show.

[FRANNYL1]

@oscrthgrch7 I'm completely jealous...but I did see both bands...but separately..

[KatoKnox]

thanks for posting it. I saw one video on MTV way back when and bought the only album that was ever sold in Tennessee! Great sound!

[marcosmoure]

@KatoKnox well, i guess they had real good musical taste in TN back then... and today! Cheers!

great fing band!

[boardkingboy]

I have been chatting to Bill this morning, he's playing the drums mostly and setting up a small studio. Nice bloke. I only vaguely remember having "good and gone", but they had a great sound (a lot of clash in there?). Never saw them live unfortunately.

I was lucky enough to see them in Wellington NZ at Victoria University.

It had a strong influence on my musical life afterwards.

Bill Carter played his guitar without a pick and a most unusual style.

I played this album so much in 1988.

Thanks for posting it.

[marcosmoure]

@tablatom you're very welcome. I was never lucky enough to see them live but I also wore down that album down to the grooves!

[cybermite]

heck it's about time they finally released Gun Shy on CD. I've have the original LP (mint condition) and no turntable to play it on for 10 years. I gladly paid $16+ for digital version of this true masterpiece...

thanks for posting up this rare gem. these guys were great!

[mbshick]

If the record company people aren't going to rerelease this awesomeness, why the fuck do they care if someone posts it for all to enjoy. I fucking love this album.

[marcosmoure]

@mbshick I fucking love it too.

[damage98]

rock on

[TheJhphoto]

they were so awsome!

[daionsavage]

Bill Carter is one of the few guitar heroes worthy of that title!

[fizzguts]

Sir you are a legend. Many thanks from down under for putting this superb video up again

[marcosmoure]

@fizzguts Many your welcomes from the ole USA..... my pleasure, glad you enjoy.

I had to delete my previous upload of this video b/c the powers that be knocked off the audio. It had 33,000+ views and some great comments from Messiah fans. So my apologies to them. So, here it is again. With improved audio quality. Sorry the vid quality is crap. This time maybe record company lawyers will not be as eager to shut me up. My only reason for doing this: expose people to a great, sorely missed band.
