@MrSlimjimk Every time Eye ever saw him or heard him sing "Cyprus Avenue", Van would stutter through the "...and my tongue gets tied..." part, no matter his mental state at the time.
I saw this in the Free Trade Hall in Manchester,now a bloody Radison Hotel...One of the best concerts i have ever been to....Looking at some of todays music i wonder were it all went wrong ?
I don't know how you got your hands on all this absolutely superb Van footage, but God bless you...It's so freakin' good to finally see some Van video...I can't thank you enough
Excellent!. This is such a great rendition, tour and album. It's Too Late to Stop Now is one of the best live albums ever. Performing live can be the finest expression of a musical artist and his craft, and this is Van at the top. It's Too Late to Stop Now never strays far from my CD player. This is a treasure!
This is just about the best version of the Avenue that I've ever heard. It's great to see how much fun the band were having (like the Cellist laughing when Van misses a line about 3 and a half minutes in). And I love the babby (that's a Birmingham phrase) with the tambourine... anyone who doesn't get goosebumps at the finale (when the band come in after "It's too late to stop now") really hasn't got a clue about music. Thanks so much for posting this - Lee
Thanks so much for posting. I saw a simulcast of this on TV way back - BBC TV and RADIO 2, I think it was. I just wish it would come out on DVD or something. Thanks again - you made an old man very happy!
I saw him live around this time and this is the closest I've seen to that night. He was just amazing and the crowd was in the palm of his hand. Everyone left the show orgasmic.
I've got this concert on VHS, all except this track, which if memory serves me correct was an encore. Thanks for posting. One of the very best live recordings.
GOODNIGHT ! all hale "THE VOSSMEISTER !!" this is hands down the best van video I have ever seen. Van dancing ,cuttin it up , smoking and having outword expressions like knothing i have ever seen. where id you get it is there more?
Van at his peak. It's Too Late to Stop Now is one of the best live albums ever recorded. If you like this video, check it out.

Superb. Saw Shana perform in Belfast last year and unbelievably Van was there watching her. Was like a dream. I met, talked to and touched My Baby.
