[desmond14]

wow, I saw them at Circus Krone in München at about that time. Lurie was walking through the audience playing his sax and sat down just next two us smoking - it was like a private concert with only a bunch of people. Thanks

[atsirap]

it's brilliant

O'klexvin kparta gu teina. Qhemo?

[shoishoi]

Wunderbar

Just discovered them via backtracking the excellent music on Backyardigans kids TV show (Comp / arr Evan Lurie). Isn't it nice when you fall in love.

Wish I had a dime for every time I've seen someone misspell "AWESOME" in YouTube comments. I'd be one rich motherfucker.

[CDNBoheme]

it would have been nice to see a little more energy from the

percussion section.

[CharlesJobinQc]

awsome!

[contwirion]

AWSOME... lovd this tune for years never seen a vid before... thanks Poophat!!!

[ucalavrese]

What to say............brilliants...

[sampotts]

Don't think this is 1989 -- Calvin was in the band later, like after 92 or 93. The tune is Big Heart, from 1989, but this version is later -- sorry if that's been pointed out already.

[hypochondra]

This actually was in 1989 - Brandon Ross replaced Marc Ribot, Calvin  Dougie Bowne and Al McDowell Eric Sanko. Promoted "Voice of Chunk" with that tour.

[cllamont]

John Lurie is the coolest motherfucker on two feet

[smokinjoekubek]

[wheresthebeefheart]

Damned straight!

[pascual92]

@cllamont damn straight

[ldl21]

love the folk in the front row tapping like mad.

[ZachRhea]

Man, G. Calvin is young in this. Does anyone know if there are any videos out there of when Billy Martin was the percussionist?

[nockspitze]

pretty fucking great

[00Billy]

I own 'Fishing with John' which has the song/video as an extra feature. Awesome DVD from the Criterion Collection. Buy it !

This video is terrific. Well done Mr Lizard.

[1K50823]

Cool stuff. Anyone know if there's a video of them performing Tarantella? Where?

[sspolon]

[EJRodriguez58]

Thanks for posting this,its been a long time since that, but so nice to see it still exists somewhere.I played percussion with the Lizards back in that era, when I left Billy Martin replaced me.Thank You.

[NoGoats]

Its fine stuff...but where did the Lounge Lizards go?

It has been a while since their last work.

I dont know if you know anything about that....

I remeber putting Live at Berlin everyday when I was sixteen (I am now 21)...It still cannot stop hearing the records...hope to see them live someday

[jackrocksack]

Great song! John Lurie is so cool!

[longfade]

Man, these guys are so frigging New York. Definately give that period of the 80's "fusion" a good name - if that's possible. And you gotta love that monster sonor kit.

[courtaud]

love it

[kevlarturbo]

[thepixelpenguin]

Cray-Zee with a capital Zee... or some jazz, man.
