Fantastic audio quality. You can really hear their superb vocal harmonies and musicianship. Lol Crème is a master of cartoon voices and exaggerated accents. They're hilarious!
I posted recently that my dad and I were going to see 10cc in April. Sadly we have recently lost a wonderful man. I am now in charge of the music for his celebration and the music of 10cc will honour him
Thumbs up for the honour. Thumbs down for the circumstance. My condolences to you and your family for your loss.
Thank you. Some evenings I may look at family photos and have a smile and other times I listen to music that we both loved. Miss him? Yes ,but forget him never
I fell in love with this mini-rock-opera the moment I first heard it. And now, what a surprise to find it live!
No other band could pull this off live! Thanks for the post!
This is proof that 10cc can do fantastic and difficult song live with all singing parts included, amazing band!
hdrake1000 lacked the precious falsetto in some parts but still great
The first time I heard this, I sort of tuned out and ignored it, after having a bit of it stuck in my head somehow I went back and replayed it, it's one of my favourite tracks now! So bizarre but so brilliant!
They were 5 on stage. An extra drummer (Paul Burgess) was needed because Kevin was occupied with vocals. I saw them in Norway 1976 and Une Nuit A Paris was the highlight of the concert.
paul burgess also plays drums on deceptive bends
This is my favorite band of all time but I've never heard one night in Paris live.
Do you mean see it live? Neither have I. I keep looking though.
Saw Eric and Graham's version of 10cc (5cc?) live shortly after the split. Wish I'd seen all 4 original members together but this is the next best thing! Thanks for the upload.
Beyond what anyone else was creating - and performing - at the time. Would love to see a video of this, but this audio is superb. Much thanks for posting.
10cc was one great band
My dad and I both love music and 10cc in particular . They have been with us for over 40 years. We plan to se them in April 2017 so let's hope that happens. If not then the group ,in various formations, has been an inspiration and comfort to both of us and long may good music continue
saw them LIVE in Hamburgs wonderful Musikhalle I think 1974 or 1975 and I freaked out, they were so brilliant
Thank you so much for the posting! I have never listened to Live version of this song. Fantastic! Dramatic! How beautiful their harmony is!
Superb!!! Only a Super Group like 10cc could make this track live. Sadly they don't perform anymore (the original foursome)
What a band !!
Genius.
Oh to have been in the audience to witness this, I'd have waved my leather umbrella :)
Haha! We all would!
I love this! It's the first time I Hear the song live and thst's prettig amazing they did it with four!
The original song on the record and this are so much alike..so not much twiddling with the knobs to separate them. Class and class all the way.
coming back to this album after a short break.....45 years....oh I how adored 10cc. What an absolute fantastic live version of this utterly brilliant slice of genius. Many Thanks for the upload
In simple words. Quite a brilliant group ...
This is amazing. All hail the King Biscuit Flower Hour!
Saw 10cc in the seventies at the free trade hall Manchester.
My fav band of all time.great voices lyrics and just superb
Agree with the Induction vote too. Would be about time.
Marvellous incredibly talented band brings back memories of listening on 8 track !
Glad to be of service
Fantastic recording! The memories! Saw the Glasgow Apollo leg of this tour in '75 and heard the tracks from "The Original Soundtrack" at the gig before I'd bought the album, fan though I was. Jaw-dropping show. Thanks for posting.
Nice one my grandpa loves this
Just superb!!!
You made my day by posting this track. The blueprint for queens bohemium.
As I have been saying since 1975, If Queen was as good a band as they could be, they would be 10cc. Except that 10ccc had a sense of humour. A very well-developed sense of humour. Sly and subtle.Plus they were some some seriously good players and singers.
Absofigginlutely awesome
Thanks for the upload. My only other opportunity to hear this live is the knebworth concert recording but their audio equipment had been tampered with by the Rolling Stones roadies, so it sounds naff. Saw them do it live at the Liverpool Empire in 1975 - f n brilliant. It gets overlooked because of INIL. The first side of Original Soundtrack is just fantastic - UNAP, INIL and Blackmail - beat that anybody - I Dare You !
Fantastic band and "Worst band in the world" is one of the best records ever made and so underated and never played on the radio shameful!,!!
You're right. Three completely different tracks, but absolutely brilliant in their own way. A superb side of music.
Blackmail my number 1! ...Those voiceloops halfspeed. amazing done for that time
I was lucky enough to see this show in Philly at the age of 17. It was till then the best night of my life
Just heard this at the end of episode 1, series 2 of Amazon Prime's Marvelous Mrs Maisel.
great
wow
Whatever happened to real musicianship in pop music? Nothing like this exists anymore.
Wow Live? They were so good man.
When 10cc were good
I had a ticket to 10cc in Germany 1980. The Army told me I couldn't go, it was for something really stupid I can't even remember, I gave the ticket to Ted. He says, "10cc whats that?" I said shut up and GO. He right near front center stage and said it was one of the best shows he'd ever seen! I said OMG that was supposed to be me!!!
Roy Thomas Baker, the pop perfectionist who had produced all the Queen albums up until then, later recalled his time working with Freddie, listening, mouth open, as the singer demonstrated on the piano an “idea for a song” that he had. “It was going to be a brief interlude of a few Galileos and then we’d get back to the rock part of the song,” Baker memorably recalled years later.
“When we started doing the opera section properly, it just got longer and longer.” Days went by with the recording. Every time a perplexed Baker thought they were done, “Freddie would come in with another lot of lyrics and say: ‘I’ve added a few more Galileos here, dear,’ and it just got bigger and bigger.” There had famously been long songs on albums before; tracks identified by their construction from seemingly disparate elements that built to a towering crescendo. Also, most recently in the mind of Freddie Mercury, the three-part pop operetta Une Nuit A Paris from 10cc’s summer 1975 album The Original Soundtrack.
10cc Graham Gouldman Is Convinced Rockers Queen Took The Lead From 10cc When They Wrote Bohemian Rhapsody As He Had Performed A Three-part Pop-opera During A Joint Concert With The Band.
The structural similarities of the two tracks prompted suggestions Mercury had been influenced by the earlier song, and now 10cc member Gouldman reveals the band had earlier performed Une Nuit A Paris during a show with Queen in Liverpool, England.
He tells Mojo magazine, "We did a gig with Queen in Liverpool - I'm sure they heard it. We were quite like them in terms of production values and song construction."
OPERA!!Hit me at this time
Glad to be of service =)
As if anyone could attempt this live and actually pull it off. Speechless!! Anyone know of any other versions? Seems to be very little live stuff available.
This is such an incredible piece of music. The whole catalogue of Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd doesn’t compte to this.
When we talk of Super Groups, how are Gouldman, Stewart, Creme and Godley not mentioned?
Paul Gibbs because they are not a super group they were an original band that produced brilliant music
A super group is made up of individual artists coming together from their respective bands to do something new and exciting hence the word super
