This is too good to forget! Real music Ok i m 56 now but the man is so underrated Genius artist! He deserves better!His music still rocks on now in my opinion! Love it🥰🔥💃
Absolutely Blinding can never understand why Ligotage was never released played or on even included on Dirk!??? It's an absolute Banging track..So much more worthy of just being a fricking B side!!
I followed them all the way, it got silly, they were sold, but you can't ignore the early days, its just sooooo much better? Where did it all go wrong?
@@TimmyAndTammyScumbag indeed, even better sometimes. I’ve got a Peel Sessions of The Adverts doing most of Crossing The Red Sea and it’s better than the real album release!
Two singles with an option on an album. The second single was going to be Zerox (version 2) b/w Kick, both recorded at RAK Studios November '78 with Steve "Snips" Parsons producing and a flyer of the Antmanifesto packed in with every copy. (A-side not to be confused with the Broadhurst Gardens Decca demo of Zerox from Aug '78 as featured on Madam Stan and In Bondage.)
@@kurtvanderbogarde8402 I didnt know that. Thanks for the info. I wonder if they'd stayed with Decca if Dirk LP would have been different...or even released
@@lastoftheurgents1965 Well there are the Decca recordings and they're a lot more like the Ants at a live gig than Dirk was, with a big heavy dirty Matthew guitar sound and stompy drums rather than the trebly tappy sound on Dirk. Dirk was a failed attempt at doing a soul/funk/disco styled album. The late '79 SGS demos (Secret Art, Killer, Henry & His Baby etc) are a rather better attempt.
@@kurtvanderbogarde8402 You're right. I guess I'm using Young Parisians as a starting point which seems a sort of throwaway gimmick song in comparision to say Red Scab. Its not always easy capturing a bands sound in the studio form what they sound like live as anyone who's listened to the Southern Death Cult LP will hopefully agree. cheers
@@lastoftheurgents1965 Young Parisians is a song about voyeurism ("just to see what the French Boys do to you"). It got played live for a while in mid '78 and there are at least two versions on live tapes. Adam wanted the band to be unpredictable and putting out a 3 chord fast punk song would have been too much what people expected from the Ants.
Yeah, well last Grand National I went well deep with it. I had these 2 horses I was going to put £5 on to win and £2.50 each way on as well, and put £1 each way on like 8 others to balance it all out. I forgot to put the £5 too win on the horse that won because too occupied by the others. They both came 1st and 2nd. I threw away my £50 I should've won. So angry about it.
Never back two horses in the national, some other one will win and you waste twice as much money, unless you were going 50p E.W. then I'll let you off John

Jesus that version of Animals and Men
When Adam Ant invented hardcore.
the Real Adam & the Ants one of the best 1970's Punk bands...
+Lyndsey Franklin A particularly violent version of Animals here. I've said that before haha
Peel about 'Tabletalk': "That's pretty mellow stuff!" 😂
Loving hearing the Peel sessions again!!
John was responsible for discovering some of the biggest bands of the 70's & 80's....sadly missed.
My favorite version of Adam & the Ants.🐜
Nice to hear Peel’s comments. Over the years he had good things to say about the Ants. He even had a copy of the Madam Stan bootleg in his collection
This is the Adam and the Ants that we love...much much better than the later 80s stuff
Matthew Ashman ❤️
The Ants at their best IMHO

Brilliant song. Didn't hear it till '91 Strange Fruit Records. Blown away.
Oh and the tune was too bright for the lp, like Zerox was. Yeah Ligotage.
One of my absolute faves
This version of Table talk 👊👊👍
Utter Brilliance.
ADAM ANT As A Punk Rocker! Looks GREAT 👍 👌 😀 👏 😊 🙌!
sounds so fuckin good!
It’s a Godd@mn shame that this only has 29K views. People need to hear and know about this sh!t
I love this!
RAW.LOUD.BRILLIANT
"Ligotage" sounds as though it inspired Blur a fair bit..
Yes - Dirk era must have been rinsed round Damon and Justine's (Elastica even more blatant).
Yup
yes I thought Blur took influence in a major way@@hpjr2013
THAT version of Animals and Men
Animals and Man

Although I completely agree with you- I rather like the latter albums too. He’s just so good even his “bad” stuff is great.
Fuuuutuuuuriiiiist. Manifesto!!!
New Romantic 🖤
still..my favorite song is a compromised title treated as a throwaway..
The soho shuffle ✨🎼
Brilliant proper Antz

Is this really a live Peel Session? sounds so Dirk wears white socks, well produced
In my experience, most Peel Sessions were pretty decent recordings and mixes.
@@TimmyAndTammyScumbag indeed, even better sometimes. I’ve got a Peel Sessions of The Adverts doing most of Crossing The Red Sea and it’s better than the real album release!
cool
Released from contract with Decca. They only signed for a 1 single release deal. From the label who turned down The Beatles
Two singles with an option on an album.

Would like to have heard Boil in the bag man, Day I met God, Lady and the original version of Kick here
"Never Trust a Man with Egg on his Face" seems to me a sort of punk reimagining of songs like Genesis's "Harold the Barrel".
would you believe the two songs are exactly the same length? 3:00 exact

The real deal.
HEY MATE HOW YA DOIN...

who was playing the guitar in these days ? pironi or ashman ?
PuNkAdElIc
Last thing I brought was Xerox.after that was pop shit

Adam looks like a right Hoolie nowadays after he got scalped!
What does this even mean
