Depeche Mode - Puppets - late 1981 - RARE! Posted by: JohnAdrenochrome
Video duration: 168 seconds Dave Gahan was only 19 in this! They were on Saturday-morning TV in the UK. A "first-and-last" appearance really, the first time I saw them all in leathers, and the last time with Vince Clarke. Love the old TEAC reel-to-reel for the drum track....

A Flock of Seagulls - Space Age Love Song - Live, 1983 Posted by: JohnAdrenochrome
Video duration: 264 seconds This performance by A Flock of Seagulls was the opening track in their concert recorded live for the "Sight and Sound" TV program. This was where the show was broadcasted live on TV, and also simultaneously on an FM stereo radio broadcast. Very high-tech for the time! And a great gig!

A Flock of Seagulls - I Ran - Live, UK TV 1983 - RARE! Posted by: JohnAdrenochrome
Video duration: 207 seconds This performance by A Flock of Seagulls was performed live in a UK TV studio, during 1983, about a full year after the single release of "I Ran". I think that the band had a very nice live sound on this particular rendition, with a great vocal delivery by Mike Score.

Cocteau Twins - Musette and Drums - Full version, Live 1983 Posted by: JohnAdrenochrome
Video duration: 263 seconds This performance by Cocteau Twins was recorded live on TV in the UK in late 1983. (They played "From the Flagstones" too, which I may upload later). This rendition of Musette & Drums was their best-ever TV performance, in my opinion. The band were at their best creatively too. There's a couple of small sound drop-outs, but those were on the original TV broadcast, so there's nothing I can do :-( Related: 1983, and, cocteau, cocteaus, drums, fraser, live, liz, musette, tv, twins |

Talk Talk - Today - UK TV 1982 - RARE! Posted by: JohnAdrenochrome
Video duration: 181 seconds This appearance by Talk Talk was recorded on UK TV in 1982. "Today" was Talk Talk's 3rd single, when they were still in their electropop phase. (This track was produced by Colin Thurston, who also produced Duran Duran's 1st album). Their drummer kicked-ass...reminde d me of Keith Moon! A great track, and a great performance!

A Flock of Seagulls - Transfer Affection - Live, 1983 Posted by: JohnAdrenochrome
Video duration: 343 seconds This performance by A Flock of Seagulls was from their concert recorded live for the "Sight and Sound" TV program. This was where the show was broadcasted live on TV, and also simultaneously on an FM stereo radio broadcast. Interestingly, this track is introduced as "Transferred Affection" by Mike Score.

A Flock of Seagulls - Telecommunication - Live, 1983 Posted by: JohnAdrenochrome
Video duration: 187 seconds This performance by A Flock of Seagulls was from their concert recorded live for the "Sight and Sound" TV program. This was where the show was broadcasted live on TV, and also simultaneously on an FM stereo radio broadcast. Don't know what's with the "Woo woo" synth sounds at 25 seconds in, maybe the sound engineer was a bit drunk! (You'll know what I mean if you watch it...)

Robotic Dancing Competition - UK TV, 1983 - RARE! Posted by: JohnAdrenochrome
Video duration: 192 seconds This feature was broadcast on Sunday evening TV in the UK, at the height of robot-dancing's popularity. Viewer's of this show were predominantly middle-class complainers, (the whole point of the show was to teach viewers how to moan and complain about services). So robot-dancing was a strange feature to have! A great nostalgia piece though :-) Related: 80s, 80s, bbc, dancing, eighties, electropop, esther, fotostat, life, new, rantzen, robot, robotic, romantic, synthpop, thats, wave |

Depeche Mode - The Meaning of Love - 1982 - RARE! Posted by: JohnAdrenochrome
Video duration: 171 seconds This looks like the school disco, :-) but it was actually filmed on UK TV during early 1982. Today, the dancing style of the kids in the audience looks very strange indeed!

A Flock of Seagulls - The Traveller - Live, 1983 Posted by: JohnAdrenochrome
Video duration: 214 seconds This performance by A Flock of Seagulls was from their concert recorded live for the "Sight and Sound" TV program. This was where the show was broadcasted live on TV, and also simultaneously on an FM stereo radio broadcast.

Goth discussion. Late night UK TV - 1997. Posted by: JohnAdrenochrome
Video duration: 330 seconds A discussion about goth, on the Jo Whiley late-night show broadcast in 1997. Jo Whiley, BBC Radio 1 "alternative" and indie DJ, was reputedly a bit of a goth in her youth, & something of an Ian Astbury / Death Cult fan. In this she admits to crimping & backcombing, but nothing more. The curly haired guy knows his stuff! Bit of a closet goth I think... :-) Related: brian, crimp, cult, danse, goth, gothic, jo, leeds, manson, march, mercy, molko, of, phono, placebo, sisters, society, uk, violets, whiley |

Fotostat - Brave New World - UK TV 1982 - RARE!! Posted by: JohnAdrenochrome
Video duration: 155 seconds I think that robot-dancing duo Fotostat, were hugely underrated. This performance of their single, "Brave New World" was recorded on UK TV in late 1982. I think it's a classic performance, and just so early 80's :-) :-) Related: 80s, 80s, brave, dancers, dancing, eighties, electropop, fotostat, new, photostat, robot, robotic, romantic, synthpop, wave, world |
