The Wonder Stuff - Give, Give Give, Me More, More, More

[mickeyramone]

went to see Miles and Erica a few weeks ago in Glasgow..still one of the best songwriters of his generation...god bless the fuckin lot of us.

[Berger090640]

RIP Gilksy and Rob. Still top blokes now, Miles n Malc. Going to see the HUP 20th Anniversary gig in Brum this December. They did this album last year and they were shit hot

[MilTHFC]

fantastic band, got to see them many times in my younger days when i had hair haha! Im sure one of the last times vic and bob came on and did dizzy with them? Brixton academy or the town and country club? happy days! ;o)

[kevsickboy]

really happy days. i was lucky enough to have a chat with miles a few months back when he played a show near me and it was a real pleasure. its no coincidence my 14 yr old son is called miles. :)

[mtw1945]

total pish

[smeeinit]

Aw, happy memories of being 16 and getting trampled on at Wonder Stuff gigs.

[frelexis]

We love you miles, you brought us together!!!!

[creamofcardstv]

well that sums up the money grabbing world we live in, great track

[dragonsanddaffodils]

The bass thing was cool! He is missed!

We saw them at Shepherds bush on halloween, and it was fab that he was remembered there too, along with Martin!

[franklinZac]

lame

[jautopsy]

dude tbh if u ddnt like it why post it why not just close the window yea u see the little "x" in the cornor hit that or change to a different window or somink just dont post "Lame" and exspect none to start on you about it attention seeker muchly

[mucker1965]

seen them carling accadamy birmingham supported by jesus jones 30th oct fantastic

[wildenfree]

If you like this vid, check out 11 appalling promos, in which they embaressingly introduce each of their videos - its a hoot!

[Berger090640]

I had that VHS video - now lost in the mists of time...

[wildenfree]

Probably valuable now.

[welkstar]

I love the fact they put a picture of Terry Wogon, years before he charged a million quid fee for doing Children In Need. Greedy bastard. I wonder why the papers make a fuss out of Russ and John and not Terry. Greed and taking money from a good cause is alot worse than some stupid prank. But then again, middle england (and the newspapers) love Terry and not John and certainlly not Russ because he gets more pussy in a week than any of those muppets in middle england get in a lifetime. Its envy.

[howdenender]

brilliant

[seashel713]

I miss them!

[clintoncooper]

i saw them at reading in late 80s fucking great

[warlockboyburns]

this guy is beautiful

[rugshort]

Ah, Bass Thing was the best. Where art thou Tankee lad?

[eldospinks]

I don't know if you know the bad news, but he sadly passed away.

[rugshort]

I hope you don't mean Tank?

[eldospinks]

The Bass thing. He died about ten years ago I think.

[rugshort]

I was aware of that. The drummer died recently I believe. Very sad.

[eldospinks]

I know what you mean. The stuffies were the soundtrack to my teenage years, along with PWEI and Ned's Atomic Dustbin.

[wildenfree]

Neds are playing anniversary gig on 6th December - Shep Bush!! get your ticket now.

[Indio156]

the Bass Thing passed away in 1993, and he was my husband -- He never died, but he did pass away.

[wehrwulf1944]

well he did die sweety. rip. anyways, did you rebuild your life?

[boybandmassacre2]

Hup!

[K4RR4S]

Celebrating the 20th Anniversary of The Eight Legged Groove Machine, join the group as they play the album in it's entirety for an anniversary party at the Birmingham Carling Academy (30th October) and London Shepherds Bush Empire (31st October).

Jesus Jones will be supporting on both dates.

[pixelpop2]

Ugh 20th anniversary! I feel old.

[artmunky]

Sigh... You and me both. So, are they back together and, say, coming to Canada?!! Please oh please oh please?!!

[rugshort]

The should've got The Seers supporting too!

[jd201067]

Got my VIP ticket................. Re-live my youth with the best band of the late 80's /early 90's. This album was the sound track to my life for ages!! Happy daze!!

[px2px2]

is your bank big enough?

[pivot1022]

can anyone get animals and me on youtube

[scappleby]

Now were rockin', ain't that the truth. Far Out!

[bsoglobal]

man i loved the stuffies!!!!!

[adamfirestorm]

8 Legged Groove Machine is one of my favorite albums. I never really could get into much material from the band after that.

[ANDYCF73]

Hup is a great album just as good as the eight legged groove machine.

[thescallywags]

I think the stuffies career was one of diminishing returns. The first album was the best, Hup was not quite as good and so on.

[rugshort]

I agree, Pat Collier did a grand job and their songs were more immediate.

[mongabella]

gotta love that alcoholic,I miss the bass thing.

[Indio156]

The Bass Thing was my husband. I am sure he's glad he's missed. And who is the alcoholic you refer to?

[K4RR4S]

Thanks for posting Indio156... I've removed the dodgy comments in reply to yours, which I felt were uncalled for and rude. Sorry it took me so long to do so.

Your input is both welcomed and appreciated. Thanks.

[mik9765]

STUFFIES!!!!!

[Blackbourn1]

Glorious song from a glorious album. What brilliant memories - Reading Festival 1989, Corfu 89 listening to 8 Legged etc...

[thescallywags]

Loved the 8 legged groove machine. It was probably their best.

[fanclub1990]

#yes#

[fanclub1990]

still sounds great,one of my fav bands ofalltime.if you like this,you can see my videos from late 80's to early 90's.I,ve got the bassthings last appearance on video + 20tapes of music from around this time.i'll get around putting them on dvd soon,when i get some spare time that is!

[curryquest]

I am guessing that you are from Leicester and frequented the fanclub?

[AngryWhiteGurl]

I forgot about this song. It's awesome!

[Lebowsk1]

Saw these guys at the Guildford festival a year or two ago and they sounded just as great as they did back in the day.

[jaseywasey49]

Apart from Miles who is left from the band in this line up

[Lebowsk1]

good question, and i'm afraid i don't know. i'm not the hardcorest of fans (only have "if the beatles had read hunter" best of), but i knew the songs and the frontman were the same. beyond that... not sure.

[Wrenn00]

From the old band? From the original 4 Just Miles Hunt and Malcolm Treece (guitar). Rob Jones (bass) and Martin Gilks (drums) are unfortunately no longer (1993 and 2006 respectively, :( RIP , no longer with us.) Um, not a hardcore fan, just a listener...

[jaseywasey49]

Hi sadly i knowabout Bass Thing & Gilksy (he lived not far from me, by all accounts alovely bloke, still feel sad seeing their videos with him on). Just wandered if Paul Clifford & the Fiddler had joined again.

[beefolton]

What a memorable song from my youth, great to see The Bass Thing rip, these guys from kings heath rocked & Miles went to whitesmoor school in chelmsley wood !

[EarlGreyIII]

Soap dodgers for sure, great songs though.

[zourz44]

i think these guys influenced faith no more, cuz i can kinda see similarities between the two bands. but im not sure...correct me if im wrong

[bainty66]

kingswinford rocks

[bassthing26]

Best band in my lifetime. X

[unsound64]

Hope its short :-)

[bassthing26]

You don't know me. why reply hoping my life is short?

[unsound64]

Sorry dude, bad joke.

[bassthing26]

No worries.

[marsjolta]

golden days of slacking

[jammumu]

BOSTIN!!!!!!!!!!

[Gbams228]

Cool..Black Country Boys..still kicking arse..

[andygazza]

Saw them in Belfast at their peak...brilliant gig...great memories.

[bassthing26]

Tune.

[Kingers41]

Simply superb. Thanks for posting

[bobbyramada]

Again, my eternal thanks to the Suffies for being so kind to our old group Gigolo Aunts. They showed us what it was to be a truly kick-ass live band every night of the week.

[K4RR4S]

I'm sure I saw the Gigolo Aunts on the Construction tour in Sheffield - You guys rocked! Great support for the stuffies.

[ClintHunt]

This video and song changed my life when I was 13 years old......not sure if for the better. LOL

[thescallywags]

Yeah it was the Gigalo Aunts on that tour. I saw them at the Newcastle city hall. In 93 I think. I remember a screen at the end of the concert which said 'thank you for coming'. This was swiftly followed by 'Now fuck off'.

[Indio156]

AABINVESTIGATIONS contacted me, and sent me an email which I missed out on b/c I was out of the country. WRITE ME AGAIN! He said he used to work on the crew with my husband, The Bass Thing. Today is his death day. Happy Death Day, Rob. You are loved, and always remembered...

[rugshort]

Always loved the Bass thing. He wore my band's t-shirt on the front of a magazine..., Top lad!

[smashsmp]

Brilliant!

[udenjan]

Cheers for uploading. The Wonder Stuff are great.
