Had no idea these guys were on Arsenio back in the day. And have no idea why these guys never exploded like RHCP or Living Color. They weren't hitmakers but they rocked. And the onstage energy? They invented it.
there was a lot of personal turmoil amongst these guys, the guitar player became a religious zealot and they tried and failed to save him, that and their music was incredibly leftist/liberationist in nature and far too uncomfortable for the conservative mainstream of the '80s and '90s
Jet here nailed it almost completely. A black band along with those ideals, no way the music industry would have or could let that by. We live in a shit country, folks. Time to accept it.
I feel like I am last of a dying breed. I went to a Fishbone show and I was the only youngish dark skinned person there. I love the idea of soul, gospel, funk inspired energetic rock, but it seems liek I am the last adherent
Yes I did, many times over the years actually. Last time was at the Stone Pony where they were playing an after party for one of those huge, bloated 'festival' abortions that Asbury has. They were off the fucking chain, I think that Angelo had just discovered the theramin as an instrument, he was all over it. Amazing set to about 40 people.
@@jfmax2000 Gotta say, after listening to this, the energy level was so high it made me want to crash through a brick wall like the Kool-Aid guy. Then, all of a sudden, the trumpet plays and it's such a beautiful sound I go from feeling all pumped up to suddenly having tears in my eyes.

Great band. One of the best live shows I’ve seen - NYC in 1990. Under rated. Their sound is still fresh.
Man... Fish is F**king Killin On Drums Here ☺☺😎👊💯💯 (What I Wouldn't Give for a Network Broadcast Quality Copy of This Performance)
best band ever
The only band on my wishlist to have seen live.
Amazing performance.
LOVE THEZE, BROTHAS THEY'RE SO UNDER RATED
When FISHBONE RULED THE WORLD
Shit ton of talent on that stage..
Ain't it The Truth... Wheewww !!!! 😎👊💯💯
Simply EPIC!

Was in the audience
I was sitting right behind you
Man They Killed It !!! Right On Arsenio... That Audience Wasn't Ready for Fish and The Crew (But They Loved it)

..Yeah... I Can Imagine.. Not The Greatest Feeling... Especially With Talent Such as Fishbone 😢😢
Thank you for posting this video. I saw this when I was in high school.
These guy were too much for this audience. I love them. Miss the mosh pits
Fishbone leapt from a great height. Did you catch them?
Yes I did, many times over the years actually. Last time was at the Stone Pony where they were playing an after party for one of those huge, bloated 'festival' abortions that Asbury has.

Awesome performance, does anyone knows how's the name of the song?

Why does an extra guy come out to play trumpet for ten seconds? They have a trumpet player in the band already.
That's Sam Mims.. He Was Part of The Additional Lineup on Their 3rd Release The Reality of My Surroundings
