Van Der Graaf Generator Scorched Earth (Live 2007)

[stone8man]

VDGG gets the adrenaline pumping, even if you dont turn the volume up, no heavy metal or other rock comes close to the sheer power of this band , imo ^^

PASJONAT51 GOT NEW channel POLSET2.

Peter mixed the lyrics & sang the same verse twice ("He will not be hostage..." instead of "In his wake he leaves..."), but no one noticed due to their greatness!

It sucks to see them falling apart. Thank God they recorded when this song on film in '75.

@ncanino33 Dont Like it-Don't watch! 

[ncanino33]

@PASJONAT51 I do like it because I am so familiar with the music. I saw them at Nearfest 2 years ago and they were the hilight of the whole festival. They did make me nervous. As a musician I know what it feels like to mess up on stage, but fortunately for VDGG, their legendary status excuses them from having a bad show, but only to those who know what to listen for. But I'm not going to live in denial and say that they still got it. So chill out. I enjoyed watching the video.

[Adamboms]

@ncanino33 I thought they played quite well

[lesclaypool0727]

I'm only 27 ,and I VDGG fan in all of my life!

[HammondDER]

much better than the track from live at the paradiso

[plinianguy]

This is awesome. Still, without David Jackson on sax and flutes, it isn't quite the same. :/

[Sirengesang]

will Banton am Ende vor Evans fertig sein?

[denisecastello]

This clip was filmed in Udine, Italy, not on Madrid, Spain

[mirobaldo]

No, it's the Umbertide (small town close to Perugia, Italy) concert, transmit by RomaUNO channel...

[panhype]

Holy crap, Peter @8:40 (jumping up and bursting out with 'Oh yeah')!!!

VdGG always has been one of the most intensive bands. Ever. And this here is probably one the most intensive versions of "Scorched Earth". Fabulous, cause the song is meant that way.

[PASJONAT51]
