TVOntario, 1976
Still watching in 2024. Magic!
Saw Nash play with Gary Numan both men are brilliant!
Don't ever let YT take this down. EVER.
I was in grade 7 when I saw this broadcast. Definitely one of the best from TVO!
this was a very defining musical moment for me, at 13 years old. At 60, this still gives me goosebumps!
Man, I was 17 years old when I first saw this on TV. The song blew me away. It took me a while to track down a copy of their album (I once lived in a small market) but when I did it stood out from everything else. it's still a fave of mine. Nash The Slash was an iconic and truly unique musician and performer. Blows me a way that I'm watching this again on UA-cam 45 years later. Cool.
Im with you brother but I think Cameron is the MVP. LOL.
@@grayeagle1000 I am one of Cameron's brothers. Best Bud in High School & we go on from there.
Dito Baby! I was born in 1960 myself. Yes, very cool, isn't it?
Nash the Slash without his band-aids
I remember seeing this as it happened in 1976 on TVO Live
I'm thrilled there is video of Jeff Plewman (Nash the Slash) without the bandages!! First saw this when I was 13 years old, and it has stayed with me 47 years later! Time goes by but great music stands still!!
The only album i ever had on 8-track, cassette, album, CD and digital download
Wow-what a trip. I believe you.
Don't recall ever seeing Nash without the bandages! Thanks for posting.
He actually bought up the rights to most footage with him without the bandages so it wouldn't ever see the light of day. He was that dedicated to his ambiguity. In fact, he would show up to casual gatherings wearing full bandages. Recording artist, Kim Mitchell says that Nash the Slash was completely dedicated to keeping his identity a secret.
@@jayanxiety until his very last show, that is.
I honestly love how there’s no guitars. That mando sounds just as good as any distorted guitar but with a different flavour. Man, I love music from the 70s.
Two thoughts here: One, it's awesome to see Nash the Slash's face; and two, please ,TVO, bring back awesome original programming again.
Or, TVO, please release all episodes of Night Music on UA-cam. And while you’re at it, throw in some of the Elwy Yost stuff.
Man, I was 14, 15, and stumbled on Night Music and it was Nash's black show. Just amazing. I'll bet most episodes of Night Music never got archived. I had a friend that worked in small Market. Around 2000 all the TV stations were digitizing thier catalogues, but it was time consuming (someone had to sit there playing all this video into the digitizer) so it was expensive and ridiculously time consuming. So one or two people would go through the crates and crates of tapes and go "toss, toss, toss, toss, ummmm... keep, toss, toss, toss, ummmm...nah - toss, toss, toss, keep, toss, etc. Because Nash did so much at the TVO studio they probably kept a few of his just as an example of the show. Sigh. A few years later they came out with Night Moves. A guy with a camera would sit in a car, and a second guy would just drive around Toronto at 3:00 in morning. That show was apparently popular with convicts, because they could "go for a drive" by watching the show. Then TVO took that concept and created Night Walk, and the same crew would just walk around Toronto late at night. Go on the subway, and just walk all over the city. All 3 were great shows.
There are such beautiful moments
Saw this when I was 15 years old and thought it was absolute fantastic and Nash was great and Cameron went yard in the TVO program! This is by far the greatest version of this album live, and left a lasting impression on me and affected me way of playing music and influenced my approach!! Will miss Nash great musician!
45 years! nanoo nanoo and may the fouth be with you!
This is an incredible video. You rarely get to see bands in their early formative years. Amazing performance by two guys.
Greatly appreciate this! Most clear images this I have seen. One the best spacial music duos. While Black Noise disc is epic; the fact there only Cameron and Nash doing the show is classic!!
First saw these guys at The High School of Commerce in Ottawa in 76. Absolutely brilliant! What a lovely memory! Thanks for sharing this.
Wow!
Thanks for posting this nugget.
This is amazing,Never knew it happened,Pre Martin Dellar but such great songcraft
Does anyone else recall seeing this rebroadcast late night / early morning Saturdays / Sundays in the late 80s / early 90s on TVO....? I somehow recall seeing it while zoning out after late nights out in Toronto around that era...
Geeze, how can the level on the synth start out so well, and when the vocals start its gated and compressed as all hell???
Dude - THIS is bigger than history!!! Thanx for posting :)
just simply incredible to see these videos nowadays. sure wish they were available when the band was playing back in the day, better late than never. these guys were awesome 👌 and I still listen to them all the time.thanks for posting!
So great! TVO at its best - those Nightmusic shows are legendary especially the ones with Nash/Fm - why do so many innovative Canadian musicians not get the full worldwide acclaim and success they deserve?!?!?
Thank-You for posting this. It's much higher quality than any other version I've seen on here.
Saw them at White Oaks Secondary School in Oakville around 1976, 1977 (with drums... ie full band). But first saw them on this broadcast. I liked this program.
I loved this show. Rainer Swartz hosted. I particularly remember the Rough Trade episode. This was prior to them going pop.
...I remember this.
the real FM
I still remember when Reiner Schwarz hosted Night Music on TVO. He was tossed off when the Canadian comedy duo McLean & McLean made some very improper jokes and Schwarz didn't bring it to a stop. Thereafter, the program no longer had a host. But it was a great program featuring progressive music. Thanks for the memories.
TVO had a long established reputation, and track record for killing every single golden goose, time, after time, after time.
@@maximilliancunningham6091 l really liked Reiner Schwarz as host. He was doing some very far out, psychedelic stuff. Unfortunately, and perversely, McLean & McLean decided to use the Holocaust as their subject matter. The following Friday, Schwarz was gone.
@@nsnopper As I said, they were lucky in attracting a lot of talent at TVO, only to in many instances terminate those assets,
id deference to their socially conservative dogmas. I saw this go down, several times. Quite immature, at the management
level.
Anyone else find the narrative introduction very cool? I found it somewhat puzzling as a kid, but knew it was artistic lol! Today, I’m fascinated by it still. Everything thing in this production is great. I even like the VHS tape stretch lol!
Great quality! Thanks for posting this very inspiring concert. I, like Mortimermamto below, saw this broadcast as a kid when it was first broadcast. Staying up late at 14 years old, I was channel flipping when I saw this show just starting. Needless to saw, I watched it to the end completely mesmerized. That day I became a Nash the Slash fan for life! Cameron Hawkins’ keyboard skills are even more impressive to me now! Great band.
You're looking at VHS, but the original masters would have been on 2" Quad.
Thanks for uploading this!
Hawkins on keys also is a great bass guitar player too.
spacerock 4ever🤘
Great video. Not sure if this was the same performance that played on "Night at 11" but it sounds the same - I think we wore out 7 or 8 cassettes of that broadcast.
I first heard Jeff & Cam up at York University - I think it was their second performance. One of my friends said we should go and see "Nash The Slash and Cameron Hawkins"... and my response was somewhere between "huh ??" and "who ??". I don't think they started performing as "FM" until some time later.
To this day it's still perhaps the best concert I ever had the privilege to attend.
There aren't many good recordings of Black Noise or Phasers on Stun - this may be the definitive recording for both tracks.
The intro sounds like it's going to go into straight to hell by the clash. Amazing
Pretty cool ! Nash the Slash without bandages and FM without drummer Martin Deller too.Gee I wonder where Slash got his name and look from?
I doubt Slash has even heard of FM or Nash. He certainly didn't see this before he became famous. Slash stole his look from southern rock bands. who tended to have at least one member who wore a big hat.
you mean the great Martin Deller :-)
Loved FM the Black Noise album left a lasting impression on me as I bought this as a 12 year old. So many great Canadian bands back in the day and some vintage recordings. Thanks for for this!....was it Martin Dellar that played drums on Black Noise? Who was the producer
Martin was the drummer and I think it was self produced.
Make sure you familiarize yourself with the Surveillance Album too IF you have not done so already. It is NOT TOO LATE!
Any other suggestions? Literally just finding FM today in the infancy of my investigation of 70s Canadian prog; I’d heard Phasors to Stun before, but Black Noise just blew my mind. Musical archaeology is my favourite.
have you encountered something similar as Black Noise?@@richiejackson9321
This is awesome but where are the drums?
At this point, Nash and Cam were only performing by themselves (backed by one of Nash's drum machines - possibly a Mini Pops, given their ubiquity at the time); Martin wouldn't come until mid '77.
Nash isn't wrapped up like a mummy?
Play Psychotic Reaction or I'll have to hurt you.
