recorded from tv in 1990. transfered from VHS tape 31.3.2012 with the same VCR ! this machine is now 25 years old :o) well, I did not want to post this without the stereo hifi track ! there were many dropouts and I went through the whole music track to cover them up. sometimes it's not easy when a dropout is 0.7s long so you can still hear them during the interview as I did not bother to interpolate speech, too difficult.
For all the Underworld MK1 fans out there, this concert seems not to be available anywhere else.
enjoy !
Oh man I thought I was the only one who jammed to them back then! I wore this cassette out!
miss the old Underworld sound
what a gifted band. They deserve their sucess, rock or tekkno, doesn`t matter
Wow... LOVE IT! Can't believe someone posted this. One of my favorite bands since the Freuer days. Have never really seen much in the way of live work from Karl, Rick, etc on UA-cam. So many people in this world have NO clue the great stuff they're missing by never being fortunate enough to stumble on these guys. These guys should have been FAR bigger than they were! Thanks for uploading this!!!
Very '80's but you can see how talented they were even then! Hyde is a good guitarist and Rick Smith can certainly tinkle the ivories!
Wow. Underworld were the soundtrack to my young adulthood. Amazing albums. So far ahead of their time, even before the techno transition!
I know underworld since about 1995. Later I learned that they started as Synth Rock band. But since I found this video I fell in love with it. Especially in "Rubber Ball". I think now I heard this tune for about 200 times. And Underworld came much closer to my heart. I love their music from their first album till today.
This is a pure treasure, it won't happen again
WOW!!! Massive band pulling it off live flawlessly!!!
One of the best things to have ever listened on youtube, thank you for uploading it
icant count all the time i danced on the disco to underneath the radar
have been to the 89' munich concert - what a great show!! One of the best live-gigs I've ever seen :-)
tschiwi you are lucky
Oh wow! I came from loving "Doot Doot" to finding Karl H in Underworld. I LOVE this video and all of these songs!! These songs are awesome! Definately my favorite video. thanks for posting!
Thx so much for this upload. I zapped into this by chance back then. Didn't know the band, was hooked immediately and punched record on my cassette deck. Played the tape up and down for years, lost it, forgot about it. Remembered it years later, found that Underworld had become something else. Searched for a recording of this show from time to time with no luck. Now here it is, just as glorious as I remember it. You made my day, sir!
Turning 50 in a few days and have seem them twice live in Japan but to this day thought i picked them up in the 90s but in reality when i was 23 and this song fuck fuck fuck love it
I saw them during this tour in Salt Lake City. Top 5 concerts ever! Thanks for the post!
I live in SLC and still regret missing this concert 30 years later.
As a fellow Utah fan who wasn't able to go to the show, what was it like?
Lucky mother
Lucky 🥲
Thank you for this! Stand Up is one of my all-time fav songs... This is the first time I've ever heard a live version
same here, there's just something about it with a lovely fusion of underworld's style, rock and new wave in general
they still have it
this video made my night. my favorite band like i've never seen them
We are strong!
Thank you! This became one of my absolute favourite U/W live recordings.
So sooo far ahead of their time indeed.
The interview with Karl make me happy every time I listen to it. Thankfully you have retained the original speech in the background.
Awesome! Loved them since Freur, which was one of the signatures of my youth….
I sought so long for this fantastic gig. Now i found... Thank you, urfanorependra, thank you, thank you, thank you !!!!!
wow KARL 😍
Oh my! Karl Hyde really touched my heart ♥️ on the song, 'Pray!' Beautiful and much needed!!
Good Job .... Thanks !!!
this video made my night. my favorite band like i've never seen them
I never knew! Amazing! First time I heard them when my dj friend from Germany played Born Slippy for me. I was hooked since! Thank you so much for posting this!
Brings back memories of the concert they did here in Perth in 1988. Thank you so much for uploading this. Wish UW would do some remixes of their old yet better work.
Thanks for this!! I have a promotional CD Single of Glory Glory Live and have always wanted to hear more of the first two albums live. You made my night.
cool! I saw it on TV when it was broadcasted furst time. I was very big fan then, when I19 years old!
Thanks! I have never seen this, nor a gig by Underworld.
I saw Freur a bunch- same band, with an extra keyboardist on this, but never like this.
Big fan since Dubnobasswithmyheadman (MK2 i guess 😆). Never realy listend to earlyer stuff. Should have done. Great video, superb quality. Thak you!
This is awesome! Thank you!
Really cool! I have been there. Unfortunately, they didn't show the whole concert on tv... Funny: Underworld played "Doot Doot" as encore :)
Playing Doot Doot......Thats fking AWESOME!
I saw them twice - once on this tour - supported by The Name. 2 of the best concerts I've EVER seen!
Outstanding upload, my friend!
I loved this album when it came out.
THANK YOU so much for giving me this version!
Awesome upload! Knowing a group of rather famous 80's bands/singers who still tour (such a fucking great era) where they STILL don't behave then it's always a crack up seeing the 80's footage....it's a game of "guess what drug" lol.
Karl is either stoned or I simply missed he always looked like that ;- )
I ran into them around this time. I offered Karl something and he declined, saying something along the lines of "You know what I'm like. Can you imagine if I was stoned?" ;-)
Ja, das ist Spitzenklasse, was Underworld kurz vor Techno am Start hatte - das zeichnet ihr Können aus! Syntie-Sound noch direkt vom Keyboard Comp eingespielt - da war ein genialer Weg in die 90ger vorgezeichnet! Heute machen sie wieder ähnliche Sachen! Eben einer der besten Elektro-Veteranen der Welt...!!
Absolut. Ich liebe die Band! Insbesondere seit ich dieses Video hier entdeckt habe!
😍Wow! Great!
Thx for uploading ❣️
This is a amazing. The seeds.
We are strong!
we are invicible
@@irishofling2300 We’re a rubber ball!
Gigante, geant, great many thank's for sharing
Drums sounds great!
ha, thought so.my father used to play there in the 60s with his band and every time i now go to play in Hamburg i walk down Große Freiheit to see it (although the street itself kinda scares me haha).
50yrs! WOW!!
This the beginning of one the best dance acts to come out the Uk it sounds they and indie band before they become big look at Karl Hyde he looks really different
Outstanding !!!
Farrrrrrk!!
thank you.....
i saw them out in the sticks in sydney in 88.. a room of about 100...
I had the album UTR so knew all the songs... Most the 99 there, or so, were there for the only song they knew, introduced by the UTR single.
I guarantee, after that concert, They bought the album...
Im a Muso myself, and there a few concerts out go the very many, that were just more than special....
When a band transfers their music to you... work backwards from the FOH.....
not many concerts ive been to got it all to perfection....
But UW1... Was/Is one of them...
Not many bands ive seen, with a production , a Pub production, have transcended beyond my critical expectations....
To put it in context..... one of the best live bands... wether a 100 capacity room, or a stadium, is Midnight oil.
Tight, so tight... But loose...
Energy, conviction.
Ive heard them do songs, sometimes better than the studio recorded versions.... i shit you not....
That gig.... I put Underworld in one of my top all time live gigs....
Sad they didnt get more support from the industry and labels...... but UW2 was their "Fk You" to it.
Like a dish best served cold........ I bet some labels are still waiting for their ice cream desert... while UW are still heating it in the microwave.......lol
check out the Fixx (other videos on my channel)if you like totally underrated bands. approaching 40 years, original lineup, one of the strongest live bands I know
yes, the Star Club on Große Freiheit 36 in Hamburg. next week on friday 13th of april 2012 will be the 50th anniversary of the club ;o)
Smashing!
LOVE IT!!!!!!
awesome!
Great band
Danke
Bit of trivia - Karl smashes that very guitar he's using into pieces, Paul Simonon style, at the Zap Club in 1994, one of Underworld mk2's earliest shows. He was described as later sitting in a chair, cradling his poor broken guitar, murmuring repeatedly "I don't know what comes over me..."
love it
wow!! it is great to see me and the band 'rocking'! Been waiting a long time to see this! Thanks:)
It's cool to see you commenting here. I know Underworld for about 26 years now. But I heard the first album about 10 years ago for the first time. Three days ago I watched this concert. And since then I'm in love with the band. And especially with "Rubber Ball" and "Pray". You all did a good job. Thank you!
@@stevewilson20 hi there, thanks for commenting, lovely words thank you - yes great songs and really great to play! Take care :)
@@PascalConsoli Can I contact you somehow for questions about your time with Underworld?
@@stevewilson20 my contacts are linked in the "about" section here on my channel
Love the songs featured here, my favorites out of Change the Weather and Underneath the Radar.
WOOOOOOWWWWWW
Baby Rick is so cute 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭‼️‼️‼️‼️❤️❤️❤️
What they were then and what they are today 31 years later (2020)....I never really liked them when they were just another rock-band. A bad copy of tears for Fears. So great they changed path that brought them to become the greatest techno-number of the world.
this is Freur right before Rick and Karl dropped the band and really BECAME Underworld....... so that isnt a fair comparison over the 30+ years.... but there is no denying the drastic change in musical format..... even as Freur, they were nothing like TFF.......
I dont agree. Freur and Underworld Mk 1 were never just another rock group and were not TFF. I am not saying in a patronising way, but listen ...okay lyrically but that was the eighties and thats what sold records. Underworld as of today was always in their sound. The way Underworld compose their pieces are directly from the skill and pure talent they were then...as they are today They are unique and very very talented in every genre. They are a progression. This is Underworld Mk 1 The Funk within is always amongst them 😊
they still have it
nice to see that good old concert! :-) who was the 2nd keyboard player back then? rick was one... but the other one? was it really still bryn playing drums there or somebody else (pascal)...?
Max
Is that Brian May on keyboards..?😅
haha, yes
Wow he's a hell lot younger.
maybe you should read the video description ? just an idea ;o)
Забавно посмотреть на монстров танцевальной культуры в таком зачаточном состоянии!
SENDUST я бы не стал называть это состояние "зачаточным". вполне себе мощное звучание в духе Depeche Mode, мне очень нравится. да, сейчас они уже гуру танцевальной музыки, бесспорно круты. но в 80-х они мне нравятся даже больше. приезжают, кстати, в Россию на Alfa Future People 2015
This looks like the Star Klub in Hamburg...Anyone?
Shame they didn't perform Doot Doot even though that was under the band's previous name Freur.
Who is the second keyboardist/pianist?
Max
@@PascalConsoli merci Pascal. Je ne vois toujours pas qui est ce Max, mais je suppose que c'etait un musicien additionnel de circonstance...
@@fabriceguisiano1510 Exactly. Yes Max toured with us in Germany, Canada and the USA for a year as a second keyboard player. Prior to that we toured without a 2nd keys in Australia 1988. Max was a nice guy but I have forgotten his surname.. salut
You mean Pete Townsend style..?

А мне тоже больше нравится их ранние альбомы конца 80-х, люблю этот жанр музыки и похожие по звучанию коллективы тех лет - такие как INXS и Information Society. Хотя мне их музыка 90-х тоже нравится, я как раз начал слушать Underworld с тех пор как посмотрел их концерт 1999 года. В 90-е группы со звучанием популярным для 80-х встали вдруг ненужными, поэтому многие коллективы из рок-музыки стали переходить в электронную музыку, то же самое можно сказать о таких популярных на рейв-сцене в начале 90-х группах как The Shamen и Sunscreem, которые ранее играли рок-музыку.
