Its a live accoustic set from Arab Strap circa 2001, over an hour long so get some horse derves and put your feet up. Enjoy, the quality is excellent for youtube

You knew it was just a matter of time.

"...origination is just instinct... not intellect"

[Immo]

If Uncle Joe and the boys are already posted....

Long-form.

It's the future.

Dedicated to Monshewer Jimmy 'The Gent' McGrory.

The true beating (musical) heart of the board.

Not wunna these dilettante mofos like Test that drop in when they can be bothered.

[Immo]

Rock 'n' Roll....

Let's go!!!

The live footage starts around the 10-minute mark.

Wee mini-doc at the start's not too bad... good stock footage.

Commentary's a bit breathless and cliched mind .

Gig's a belter tho - as those of you who have been collecting the wee YT snippets of same will already know.

Embdy lightin a joss-stick?

[Immo]

This is how I remember these gigs soundin when I was nowt but a pup.

Of course now, as a 50-year-old, I'm a hopelessly decrepit and unreliable narrator.

Not to mention the fact that I'm drunk as a fukkin Lord.

Ye pays yer money...

[JimmyMcGrory]

Thanks Immo, trying to work my way through these!

[JimmyMcGrory]

Having a few of mother russias finest on my one night off this week, just sticking this in for future listening. Up the rasta

[JimmyMcGrory]

Crumbly, covered in cobwebs and its not my Betamax version of this early 80's Stones video release. Worth a look for the nostalgia but your toes may curl

[JimmyMcGrory]

Seen this threads been such a resounding hit with you ungrateful fuckers, here's another offering. Its the Way They Were, a collection of early live punk and new wave performances from 1976-78

I taped this on my Betamax once upon a time, no sniggering at the back

[JimmyMcGrory]

Seen I'm on a roll, here's Punk The Early Years a documentary from the late 70's




Ok you've got me, its just a ruse to play God Save The Queen as many times as humanly possible

[APOSTROPHE THIS YA CUNT!]

If yees havnt already done, find a copy of this and give it a birl, excellent book, i,m reading it now for the third time, if you do get it, theres a "glossary"? Is that the right word? Of. All the folk in thebook who have contributed to it, gets a bit confusing when people you"ve never heard of are telling you of their experiences. Anyhoo damn good read.

Read and enjoyed it hugely Sev.

A beaut.

Currently reading the Kurt Vonnegut Letters and this wee belter...



I also finished reading The Kite Runner recently - shamelessly late to the party i know, but there it is.

If you haven't read it yet you should... gripping from start to finish... easy to read... but brilliantly insightful, beautifully/simply expressed and with a genuine "OH FFS!!! " moment towards the end of the tale.

Been thinkin about it for weeks after finishing it... which is usually a good sign.

Oh yeah... a track.

That Jimmy goes pyoor Tonto if ye dinny post a track.

[APOSTROPHE THIS YA CUNT!]

The "when england dreamed" bit is a tad offputing, but i,ll hae a look, im on an old ipad so cant post vids, sorry jimbo.

[JimmyMcGrory]

went to see this fella at the weekend, finished early as some cunt set off the fire alarm but it was a fine night
