The Long Ryders - "Looking for Lewis and Clark" (official promo video)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 лип 2016
- Filmed in London the Summer of 1985 to accompany The Long Ryders' first UK hit single. The Long Ryders play before an assembled crowd at the Mean Fiddler, get the law called on them in Harlesden (not shown), and have tons o' fun in the process. Stiff's Dave "Robbo" Robinson intersperses all of this with archival footage of uniquely American historical imagery. Meant to be played loud!
Their signature song originally appeared on 1985's State Of Our Union, and it's track #1 on Disc 2 on Final Wild Songs.
Final Wild Songs - THE definitive Long Ryders’ collection - is a career-spanning four-CD box set released January 22nd, 2016 on Cherry Red Records.
Over two years in the making Final Wild Songs features the original albums as well as demos, singles, and rare live recordings from The Long Ryders. Re-mastered by Andy Pearce, the 76 track box set contains song-by-song comments by five Long Ryders, many rare photos and memorabilia, a fold-out poster, and an introduction by longtime friend and supporter David Fricke of Rolling Stone. Full track listing, 2016 tour dates, and more information may be found here www.thelongryders.com/Final-Wi...

Absolutely fantastic song & a personal soundtrack of my college years. Syd Griffin is a treasure to the Americana music scene. This song is like CCR & The Clash being mixed together.
Found an old diary with records i meant to buy...this was in it!
Ironic i was just researching Clark's daughter,Huguette ,172yrs from her father being born until the daughter died,got to be a record,and i also discovered,the GRANDSON of the 10th US President(Tyler) is still ALIVE (USA was only 14yrs old when he was born),absolutely nuts! :)
Syd, a University of South Carolina Grad. GO COCKS!
Hell yeah!
Definitely like The Blasters
One of the best songs from the 1980s.
The most underrated Americana band!
AWESOME ! Underrated band, they had everything... HATS OFF !!!!
Their new album is very good
Fantastic band--I totally agree pal--as a Brit ere in Britain it took me a while to get my mates to see America music--Along with Jason and is merry band of scorchers ---still playing this stuff at tiny gigs, but still Rockin.
It's been 35 years since I last listened to this song which I had recorded on a VHS tape. I came here after watching an interview with Joe Strummer and Sid Griffin. Great song from my teenage years!
I have this single, bought in 87ish. Brilliant
Truly awesome
Was belting this out in the car earlier
Great band
This song slays me every time I hear it. Should be in the dictionary under "rock and roll."
Great song I hadn't heard in years.....
Sure takes me back to my high school days, when you found good bands on MTV.
Gig in London May 2023 for any UK based fans (fans from other countries also available) I'm up in Scotland but definitely having some of this.
wow what a beauty
Everything rock should be.
Saw them back in the eighties. This was their encore and I'm fairly sure that is the loudest I have ever heard a crowd cheer and scream. These guys were awesome live.
So many underrated bands then,Jason and the Scorchers were great too,but never became a household name!
They still are!!
Pure “balls out” sweet rock n roll glory
Just watched them play this tonight live at Newcastle...still brilliant and focused.
I went to the Leeds and Manchester shows roughly 5 years ago. I flew from Baltimore Maryland to see them. Well worth the trip.
Brilliant
La primera vez los vi en directo fue en Madrid en los 80, me gustaron mucho
Used to be an end of night floor filler at my now defunct local The Stamford Arms....Air guitars at the ready......
Love the hat tip to Gram Parsons.
With the mutton chops and all that,looking quite retro for the time.
underrated band . unappreciate band. out of time band. Their music is not for all people. All this made of The Long Ryders a band for iniciated people. Enjoy it if you can. Jajajajaja(smile)
Can you say that again ?
@@tex2344 could be
I saw them!!! I can die fulfilled
I saw them in Sweden
I think it was in the 80s
Great band
They were fucking ACE
We mean it... maaaan!!
Seeing Sid & Peter Case in London in June. Cant wait. Stephen's solo at the end sounds different fro the album version. Feel like seeing the band again in June now at Chelsea
Viddie well dear Brother, Viddie well
THE get-out-of-bed-song😃
Ace
The Long Ryders I can say without exaggeration are one of the 5 best bands of all time. I put them in there with the Beatles, U2, Steely Dan, and Radiohead. Their songwriting and their sound were tops.
Hey dude
Apart from the beatles.....the LongRyders were in a class of their own
U2🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They are in a class of their own!! Comparisons don't do them justice.
Brilliant tune ,nonsense lyrics.
I wonder if Oasis was fan of these guys.
Brilliant
