Would have been great to attend this concert they had. They produced some good tunes this night. Great Band - The rest of the band seems to be down to earth and good peeps. Keep up the good work. Still had a blast with all the So. Califiornia bands that played back in the early 80's. Best time of my life.

[baxzy]

Thanks OP!

[mickeybaumann]

i still watching this great live performance at tv !! i was 17 years old..

[markiemarqueUK]

This is their pinnacle, out strips eveything else because it's the tune I always replay in my head

[spilopbob]

I remember watching this concert in TV from Rockpalast, someone said 1981, so that's right I guess.. Wonder if theres other stuff with Undertones from that concert.

It was a fantastic energized show..

Thanks for sharing it..

[Dartos714]

Saw them a few years ago at a Cleveland, Ohio gig- outstanding. New vocalist sounded great. Hope they come back to the States sometime soon.

The punk elite laughed at the the undertones, when in reality they had more talent in their little fingers than most of them put together.

[teslagirl1]

@ajp55a agree so absolutely. but wasn't there always something a little wrong with there being a punk elite in the first place? Jeez....if ever there was music where they should have to check elitism at the door...

[diedahero]

@teslagirl1

That's always been the fatal, doubled edge sword the "punk scene" has whipped around their heads like Conan the Barbarian.

Everyone is welcome, so long as you agree with everyone else.

[fiona1ification]

days of my youth terriffic

[ajp55a]

@fiona1ification a briillant band blow my mind still at 44 10 months anda couple of days

[ohtom1967]

@ajp55a There never was a thing called »punk elite«.

[DiamondDoggz]

A voice like that is truly a gift from God. Glad Feargal decided to share it with all of us.

[beautybo]

i have had taped this fully concert on casette tape .. and has lent it our for many years ago.. but this was a high point in life of undertones. i have all records .. and nearly all singles + eps too.. :-)

[emiliejanex]

IF FEARGAL WATCHES THIS I AM YOUR THIRD COUSIN proof; my mums dad is james sharkey and james mum is hannah sharkey from donnigaul but hannah is dead.

[cirro1]

I love the part at 3:04...HAUNTING! :)

[cirro1]

What an unique voice this man has! :)

[LotaRed]

That was recorded at the 9th "Rockpalast" Festival, shown live on West-German TV (WDR) back in 1981...a great concert, I remember watching it on TV, aah..

[Hanoi247365]

Beautiful song - always loved it.

[annabellwells]

one of the best punk bands and vocals

[chrispravda]

enchanting !!!

[tsetao]

Fantastic....

[fenderclassicplayer]

Brings back fond memories of seeing these 1982or 1983 at Durham University, walking up to the gig Fergal was just coming out of the pub & give us directions, I presume the rest of the band were still in there, happy days

[reyes3277]

Brilliant!!

[marsfieldmusic]

Think the best version is the single. The band aren't loud enough in this vid.And heimdall is right - Positive Touch is their best album. The songs, the guitars, the arrangements are all wonderful and strange - as if Television were a pop group and not a rock band. There is nothing else like it.

[heimdallhinfrode]

To me the Undertones were a one album band. Nothing else they did compares to Positive Touch for weirdness, inventiveness and quality.

[doggonads]

Had the dude given up smoking by this recording. Was chain smoking when i saw them.

[Aragon2k8]

Real music.

[feargal75]

nice song, as always an EXCELLENT Feargal Sharkey, but I prefer him with his shirt ....

[seacow1970]

or in his parka!

[feargal75]

hello seacow1970 - thanks for your reply ....

always glad to see that, with shirt or with parka, Feargal Sharkey is still in our minds ! must not forget a so special singer !! Still love him

[therealsoulproduct]

My favorite Undertones song. The album version is the best. Short, sweet, and to the point.

[tonyingalway]

Great memories great post Thanks

[rampop1]

Awesome remember buying The Positive Touch LP when i was at school this song is quality!

[anne241163]

Me too! I'm on holiday at my mum's and found that LP,lol. All I have to do now is to find an old record player!

[tjafternoon]

just brilliant.

[GothikaCro]

great to find this song at long last. Thanks for posting

[PatsyS3]

Beautiful song!........I'm not a big fan but this is Beautiful!!

[Poehr]

Superb song (the first verse especially always gets me :)). Prefer the LP version to this one tbh -- Fergal's over-emoting here, which messes up the subtlety of the sentiment a bit. Its the restrained way he sings on the studio version that makes it the affecting recording it is. Still great to see, though. Thanks!

[dermot51]

fuckin ethereal

[theaceface]

Top Drawer.

Thanks.

[Karolmoz]

Many, many thanks for this video. Have searched for ages for anything from Positive Touch, a fantastic album. Julie Ocean... John O'Neils finest I think.
