Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Long Time Man (Live '86)

From the days when the Bad Seeds were still a three-man proposition (Cave, Bargeld and Harvey).

This is an excellent live performance and recording of a song, co-written by Cave and Mick Harvey, from the YOUR FUNERAL, MY TRIAL album.

Honestly, how can the Bad Seeds exist without Mick Harvey?

EDIT - Someone has correctly pointed out that this is actually a cover of a Tim Rose song. The credits threw me off.

By the way, is this with Barry?

[EuchridEucrow1]

You know, I have no idea whether Adamson is playing on this or not.

Sorry!

The Bad Seeds have never existed without Mick Harvey. It's Blixa Bargeld who is no longer in the Bad Seeds

[EuchridEucrow1]

I'm sorry to break it to ya, man. Mick Harvey has left the Bad Seeds as of January.

[EuchridEucrow1]

Wow, I'm not sure where those extra 3 minutes came from.

Now it's Nick and the Yes Men

@cowboystitching If it was 1986 then it would have been Cave/Harvey/Adamson/Bargeld.

Is this from a whole concert? I'd love to hear the rest.. where/when is it from ?

Saw the Bad Seeds do this at Brixton in 2001 at the best show I've ever been to. Can't believe it was 10 years ago! Love this tune.

[DrWGONZALEZ]

did Nick write the song or did Tim Rose

@DanielJensen20 and Poison and Keane ..... eww shut up

[gsh73la]

@DanielJensen20 says a guy who likes Simple Minds lol !

Guys, I doubt Nick is railroading anybody. They're all getting older, doing other things, and may be feeling the effects of years of tour dates and substances catching up with them.

Euchrid, the extra 3 minutes are very interesting. Nick says, "Tulips... I've had enough". ;) This sounds like Oct 18, 1988, Utrecht, NL. Great show! Thank you for uploading. Since someone asked, Barry Adamson is no longer with the band at this point. The Bad Seeds line-up from 1986 - 1989: Nick Cave, Mick Harvey (bass), Blixa Bargeld (guitar), Thomas Wydler (drums), Kid Congo Powers (guitar) and Roland Wolf (RIP) (keyboards).

Barry and Mick's bass and guitar playing sounds pretty interchangeable so it's hard to say.
