- Full performance of 10,000 Maniacs on The Tube in Newcastle upon Tyne, England, March 1985. This performance of My Mother The War would make it onto the band's 1990 video release Time Capsule.
Can't Ignore The Train
He's 1-A In The Army (a cappella clip)
My Mother The War
Saw them 3 times in Portsmouth and London. A brilliant live band in this era. Natalie is a mesmerising frontwoman and the rest of the Maniacs were the perfect partners.
So much energy from all the band, such a shame the audience didn't realise that they were witnessing greatness at the time.
Philip Yau I went out a bought the album the next day in Newcastle. Secrets of Iching is still one of my fav albums.
@@garrycraig2095 that's great, that earlier material is brilliant, with planned obs, tension, etc. I love the jangly guitar as Andy Kershaw once commented!
We knew, we were just polite and quietly listened to the music, rather than screaming a shouting, to the point you could hardly hear the performance.
Agree 💯
I remember this as we recorded The Tube every Friday on our VCR back in the 1980's.
My mother 40 at the time thought they were fantastic. Merchant can only be 21 or 22 here.
Fell helplessly in love with Natalie seeing this. Nothing changes!
This show introduced me to the band...loved them ever since. Only saw them live once in Edinburgh, Scotland...Natalie solo several times. Much prefer the bands material...no sound like Rob Buck on guitar. Genius !
I can not believe this was recorded on a Hi-Fi VCR back in 1985!
This recording is such a gem.
Natalie is a mesmerizing enchantress, Great front woman and dancer !!
God !
I really miss Natalie Merchant's Dervish Dancing
Superb
Like listening to heaven itself
i miss the tube. sadly music on british tv doesn't really exist apart from the jools holland show, it was always an exciting experience
I couldn't comment on the B-52's introduction... So... I'll just say that 10,000 Maniacs is one of the greatest bands ever... Prove me wrong.
REM ... But you're not far wrong.
In fact very very close indeed.... yeah i went there lol
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Is John Lombardo playing bass on My Mother The War while Steve Gustafson plays guitar? Interesting.
Yep, both John and Steven would trade off from the beginning of the band til John's departure in 1986.
When the Roland JC-120 ruled. Robert Buck!!
Wow!
Everyone was doing the REM thing back in the alternative mid 80’s scene
Steve Albini once said that Nirvana was just REM with a fuzz box so yeah, mid-80s through the early 90s sounds about right. But I’ll take Merchant/Lombardo/Buck over Stipes/Buck.
@@anabasis3144 They complement each other well, they toured together as I recall, what a great double bill
Nobody else was doing the Natalie thing.
@@annieanonymous1624 so true!
Of course, Natalie is wonderful, but the band are good, too
My grandmother was there?
“My Mother The War”, but maybe your grandmother was there?
steve on the ric!
I just noticed they have two bass guitars. There is a live Samhain video of them playing Archangel live with two bass guitars. I probably would have not noticed the two bass situation without your comment
