Classy stuff on YouTube

[Uncle Ants]

Only just discovered YouTube, but there is some seriously classy stuff on there. Check this out:

The Jam's last ever telly appearance on the tube.

Setlist - Ghosts, In the Crowd, Town Called Malice, The Modern World, Move on Up, The Great Depression, Beat Surrender, Precious

and some kind soul has uploaded the whole lot for our pleasure.

YouTube really is a great resource - enjoy it while you can. I can't imagine the lawyers will let this go on too long

Its good isn't it. Its a real goldmine. I found that rather than thinking in terms of band names - thinking in terms of old pop telly shows (American too) brings up whole lists of stuff.

So if you are a sixties fanatic do searches on shindig, top of the pops, beat club or if you like your classic sixties pop leavened with wild go go dancing Hullabaloo. Its really quite amazing what's on here.

Ian,

Don't know much about Krautrock stuff (big Kraftwerk fan though).

I was particularly taken by this one by Neu!

what's worth lpoking out for.

The footage of Ralph and Florian before they were Robots was interesting too.

Uncle Ants, you need to get the first 3 Neu! LPs (Neu!, Neu! 2, Neu! 75). They're classics.

I remember watching that the first time round - I'd always thought The Jam had the dynamics but where musically dull until I saw this. Pity the RnB influence turned into wishy washy white soul.

 

[RickyC6]

Indeed - some early Style Council was actually quite promising (Moneygoround particularly) but it lacked direction - bit of jazzy tinged stuff here, bit of soul there etc......

Might have to dig out The Gift tonight for a spin.

Cheers

This you tube thing is gonna be bad for productivity.

The sound etc. is rough as old boots on this one - but just how rock and roll is this:
