DEVO - Satisfaction - Live 1978 Chorus TV Paris

[serjito87]

TOO NOISYYY i dont like =(

[countrychess]

Oui " Tedeskus " : ils étaient en avance sur leur temps; pas facile d'avoir raison avant tout le monde ...

Lorsque j'ai vu " Red eyed express " interprété sur scene, j'ai trouvé cela hallucinant !

En écoutant leur " Satisfaction " à la première écoute on est surpris, alors on reécoute et là on se dit " Tiens ! Il se passe quelque chose ..." ; on écoute une troisième fois pour apprecier la richesse de l'accompagnement, et là ca matche !

2:50 of fun, after early 70's "progressive rock"...!!!

[MagikDick]

every aspect of this is awesome...the awkward drumbeat,the Benny Hill jerky movements,the bass line,the 3 guitars and the vocals

[Kedbuka]

@MagikDick It was pretty amazing. Fantastic cover. They made an iconic song all their own. They were very cool, very punk at the time.

[dildoronk]

Amazing :D sounds like an old school game or something.

[madphilgreenballs]

who cares Mark now does music for films and The Rugrats. That first album was superb. Had the record and saw them perform it live. Brilliant.

[Tedeskus]

J'étais, ils étaient passes la veille au Palace.

Ces types sont arrivés 20 ans trop tôt

[alainfromfrance]

@Tedeskus : Le Palace 1978 c'est le commencement de ma totale DeVotion ! et à 50 ans je n'en suis pas sorti, ces types m'éclatent encore aujourd'hui !!

[moose3400]

DEVO - I get it. freakin awesome.

[deftoast]

I love Gerald Casale's robotic movements.

[fuckamericanidiot]

purely by accident i just found out that the music at the opening of this video is 'beatown' by xtc

[NewYorkCanWait]

I love XTC and you stole my thunder :(

[blickumblickum]

The whole deal is the drum beat. Brilliant.

[fuckamericanidiot]

@blickumblickum yeah and it's bob 2's moment to shine!

[PAULLONDEN]

@blickumblickum Good point, surely the best cover of this tune. Eno's production got the best out of this lot though.

[fuckamericanidiot]

@PAULLONDEN actually eno said he found them 'anal' and had jerry leaning over his shoulder at every second so ended up having little of his own input

[PAULLONDEN]

@fuckamericanidiot Wasn't the band leaning over his shoulder to learn from the master ? Devo were heavily influenced by his input in Roxy Music ,and his solo work. "Here Come The Warm Jets",was a template of how Devo wanted to sound. Consequently "Are We Not Men" sounded almost like a Eno solo project. So much for "having little of his own input".Concerning 'Anal'..Eno probably was adjusting to a bunch of enthusiastic young Yanks,eager to get some unusual sounds on tape.

[fuckamericanidiot]

@PAULLONDEN just because roxy and eno were a big influence doesn't mean he had a big influence on the recording of the record at all, and besides the songs were already fully formed before eno's input. they weren't pupils needing to be schooled and if they were, they were worse off for it in my opinion, their 70's stuff is vastly superior to FOC onwards, give me the hardcore stuff any day

[chivalryalive]

Darn! They were ahead or things. Weren't they?

[darklordojeda]

dare to be stupid. weird al.

[Barry7777777]

Yeah man, Devo is a group you either love, or really hate. One great thing about them is that they could play techno without ANY automated crap - every single thing they do is played manually, except of course for some of the synth arpeggios. No other band has done that to my knowledge.

[wayfarin]

@Barry7777777

hot chip too!

[SirHatchporch]

@Barry7777777 Actually, Devo have used a fair amount of sequencing and programming on their records and in concert. They also started incorporating drum machines around the time of "New Traditionalists" in 1981. By the time of 1984's "Shout," all beats (and virtually everything else) were programmed in the Fairlight synth-computer, which is one of the reasons drummer Alan Myers left the band. I, personally, don't think programming and sequencing is a bad thing, I'm just sayin'...

[proffesornutbutter]

thi is class cover. not anywhere as weird as the residents cover of this song, that cover is nuts

[fuckamericanidiot]

i prefer this to the residents cover, i think this sounds backwards, the residents cover just makes me laugh quietly to myself

[proffesornutbutter]

aye i agree. the residents cover is just a joke, i think its meant to spawn that feeling haha

[fuckamericanidiot]

if only for that awesome drum beat, this has to be the most devolved devo song

[locodrumer]

This is too much

A.W.S.O.M.E.
