"Scroll down for a few hours". That's great. I have watched many of your videos and they are excellent.
RIP Karl, you inspired true greats and brought musical joy to millions
Vale Karl Wallinger
Karl Wallinger was one of the best and greatest musicians/ composers / producers and collaborators in music history.
Sadly the great man has died aged 66.
He passed away peacefully at his home.
My throat is tight and my eyes fill with tears.
Karl's music holds a very special place in my heart and soul.
RIP mate you were a genius of the music world.
Always in our hearts.
He was amazing!
Chris Whitten on the drums. Superb drummer. Went on to tour with Paul McCartney later in the decade. Song is a belter. Only recently discovered it.
“A Pagan Place” live in 1984. The album had just been released. Those kids had no idea they were listening to perfection....
Glad you enjoyed this, thanks for commenting
Genius at work
Perfection is not an idea! 😊
Yet, it's perfect in not being perfect. The paradox of great art. @@pencilcase46
Amazing!
Blood sweat and tears, right here. Absolute artistry. Perfection, synergy. Confidence. Fire. Forevermore a Watergirl ❤
Thanks for watching and commenting Jennifer
Just shed a tear for my lost youth! Beautiful, just beautiful.
Im glad you found and enjoyed this, I think
...And the vulture of the soul laid waste...Good to see Karl Wallinger and Roddy Lorimer on stage with the band.
Thanks for watching and commenting, much appreciated.
0:17 A Pagan Place
4:53 A Girl Called Johnny
9:39 Savage Earth Heart
Simply epic. The Waterboys early material is the best of the time.
Glad you enjoyed this Stephen
Roddy Lorimar, Karl Wallinger and Anto!!! I love this. One of the best songs ever made. I love this song. I’d love to see this live. Along with Rags of course.
Im glad you found and enjoy this Peter
god we had great music in the first half of the 80's THE BIG MUSIC
Yes
Just really good (soul refreshing good) to see and hear Karl Wallinger in this live recording from 1984. I've a lot of respect for him. Also appreciate The Waterboys. Been listening since 1986. But DAMN those percussive keyboards!! Good stuff 💖
Thanks for watching and commenting Suzanne
Fantastic! I saw them supporting U2 in Manchester shortly before this. Still the best gig I've been to! When I saw the Waterboys I thought 'Wow - they are great!' and instantly became a fan. And then U2 were mind-blowing.
Cool!
U2?....puke.
I imagine it was the "unforgettable fire" tour? I saw them at Wembley and thought that they were amazing. I was already familiar with some of their songs.
Man, I loved the Tube. 5:30 on a Friday evening - what a way to start the weekend!
Thanks for watching and commenting 🙂
The Tube was the show that launched so many bands to success. Who would have thought it, a programme on Channel 4 at 5.30!! I watched it religiously every Friday.
Yes
3 twelve -string guitars, 2 acoustic and 1 electric. Brilliant!
A girl called Johnny the first Waterboys single I bought Still here all these years later it's a passion
Pure perfection. A pagan place blew my mind and continues to do so
This. This. THIIIIISSSS! The dream time line up, great sound, great coverage, 3 fantastic songs, captured a perfect moment in time. Videoed it in 1984, played it to death. So good to see and hear it again after all these decades. Thanks for uploading STV.
I'm glad you found and enjoyed this Guy and thank you for taking the time to comment.
One of my favourite invocations of Mike Scott's lifelong musical odyssey (there have been many more since) but this band and this musical vision is just superb. Thank you for posting the full Tube performance STV, so brilliant to be able to see it in it's entirety. Glad that Mike continues on his musical quest - long may he do so.
I was first introduced to their music in 1984, when they (Waterboys) opened up for U2 at the Civic Center in San Francisco. A few years later I joined the Navy, My first command was in the Persian Gulf and to my delight the BBC played their music, which helped make my time there more tolerable. Great Band. Thank you for posting the video.
Thanks for watching and commenting William. I hope you enjoyed a good long career in the Navy.
@@ScottishTeeVee Thank you.
This is great, I just happened upon it, the image quality is excellent, great camera work , I can’t believe this is 36 years old, it feels so fresh, showing my age😉
Glad you enjoyed it
It helps that ScottishTeeVee gave it a MOT too !
One of those times (as a 16 year old) and you go "WOW!" thank you The Waterboys, and Tyne Tees for showing live artists. 3 x songs... so varied and brilliant. I bought A Pagan Place after this. Wonderful album.
Jetzt ist es an der Zeit auch mal einen Satz in deutsch zu schreiben, schließlich haben die Waterboys viele Fans in Germany. Ich kenne und liebe ihre Musik seit vielen Jahren. Viele tolle Songs die ich gar nicht alle aufzählen möchte. Jeder hat seine eigenen Favoriten. Empfehlen möchte ich den Auftritt in Rees Haldern, eine tolle Liveshow, ansehen und vor allem HÖREN
I saw them in concert about a week before this! They opened for U2 in San Francisco. It blew my 15 year old mind
Amazing!
THANK YOU ! Scott + Wallinger + Thistlewaite + Lorimer = fantastic
Oh my god this is perfection. Shivers down my back
Glad you enjoyed it
Rip Karl Wallinger
This was the first time I saw/heard the Waterboys and they instantly became my favourite band. 37 years later, they still are and I am booked in to see them twice later in the year. This is a fabulous video, thanks for posting.
Thanks Dave. Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for uploading this! It was a life altering album for me when I discovered it in '86.
So glad you enjoyed this, thanks for taking the time to comment
Simply superb and their best line up!!
Iconic and beautiful band, and performance 😊❤️🌹🎶🎼
Masterpiece. Saw them on the FIsherman's Blues tour in Toronto, one of the best shows I've ever seen.
Amazing, blown away! I love everything about it! This is an antidepressant 🖤
Thanks for watching and commenting Sarah
Truth. This music is like medicine. Better than any.
This is got to be the best footage ever. Let's just honour Mike with the benefit of the doubt. btw thank you scottishtv😋
Glad you enjoyed it Daniel!
So Nice to see Pagan Place !!! Fantastic Song
Thank you for this, precious artifact.
I am glad you found and enjoyed this 🙂
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing these. I love love love Mike Scott - Waterboys.
Always love this performance. Never realised it was recorded on the 21st December - that was my 15th birthday.
R.i.P Karl. Diamond
This is the Big Music.
Yes
not quite yet, but you can see where they're heading
Karl and Mike were a really great combo
Some of the best lyrics in a song that you'll find. Really wish I knew the story behind them.
Thanks for watching and commenting Daniel
Mike Scott has a book !
@@StratsRUs does Karl Wallinger have a book, too? I gotta read Mike Scott's book. What's it called? I'd like to read both Wallinger's and Scott's perspectives on their experience of this time. ✌️💖
If you read the lyrics of Return of pan he's telling us about baphomet or pan the god of music...if your into the devil worship stuff in the music industry you will understand such as pagan place..girl called Jonny is pan that comes in woman form making a deal with the devil for fame power money..sure pan appears in body's, animals etc..to get us to worship them and not Jesus Christ and son of God...pagan place is earth and sons of men...we are sons of God the one god..do not be decieved...vulture of the souls etc..return of pan describes it more...they say the gods are just a myth well guess who I've been dancing with...the devil is very much alive..great stuff
...i love the lyrics of This Is The Sea, helped me through really dark times...
Milton Keynes bowl 1986. Upstaged Simple Minds 🌴

I saw this lot at town and country late 80s. Astonishing
Dios ! Que barbaridad, qué bonito, esto es directo…………………….
Gracias, por ver y comentar.
I saw The Waterboys several times with this line up and on the U2 tour. When I saw them at B'ham NEC they blew U2 off the stage.
My first ever gig. In ‘89
@Rick B. That was my first gig too...The Moore Theatre, Seattle, WA. They had an Native American Chief open up the show doing a traditional Indian dance.
@@Roark66 He could of done ‘The Earth only endures’ that would of been cool as well.
I am french and I love Scotland.
Hope I come to see you again !
I hope you make it back one day, spring time is best
Perfect! 💙
Saw these guys at The Marquee, pretty cool sound, venue, live stuff and overall mood of the club that night, I remember looking up to the vocalist, the guy looked like Mick Jagger more than Mick himself. LOL
Thanks for watching, commenting and sharing your memories of good times
wow! savage hearth heart so powerful ...I guess the audience is stunned
The first thing on my recommended when I opened the app...very fun to see!
Thanks for watching and commenting Sarah
Nice video A Pagan Place is the 2nd I bought of the band. They were ace back then with Scott, Karl, Anthony...
4:53 Best song ever ! A girl called Johnny
Fantastic- thanks for uploading this- such great quality. If you’ve anything else from them, would be great to see it.
More to come! I have a full concert from 2000. I just had a look on UA-cam and its not been uploaded by anyone, so I might upload some of it.
ScottishTeeVee Now, that, I would love to see! Any idea where it’s from?
ScottishTeeVee
Also, please upload all of it, if you can! I’m a member of a few Waterboys groups and know a few people close to the band, who would all love to see that!
@@Lorrico14 I will but I try to prioritise uploads going by previous views of videos by them, if this video gets more views, then more rare waterboys video will follow.
ScottishTeeVee Fair enough! Will try to send some traffic your way.
Yeah i have this on VHS as well, I must say though I don't miss the hiss, I heard Seventeen going under by Sam Fender and was trying to think what it reminded me of and it was A Pagan place, I know they are different but the strumming and the sax definitely a touch there.
I can hear the similarity, with each, I can only guess Sams parents played the Waterboys to him as a kid.
Great stuff.. Thanks from Eire
Glad you enjoyed it!
Watched them blow U2 away in London on that tour.
Thanks for watching and commenting Robert
Ha! Ha! Were you like me?You used to watch the Tube on Friday and note down what you would tape on the Sunday repeat? I had this taped but the quality didn’t survive like your collection. thanks. Keep it up.👍🏻
Yeah, initially I would watch and record bits of the show, bands that I was interested in, then by 86 I found it easier to record the full thing complete with commercials and like you, I'd note down what I recorded, so each tape has an insert detailing exactly what's on it. Do you still have your tapes or all long gone?
Amazing 🤩🤩🤩
Thanks for watching and commenting Fiona
This band - The Waterboys - came out around the same time as U2 did and even at one point both bands performed live together. They both went their separate ways and now history is made based on countless albums full of songs written over the many upon many years since the early 80s. One band has have millions upon millions of views to their songs while the other has not but… there’s no doubt that the second band called The Waterboys is equally as great as the other. It does not matter your following count but rather what you produced and it’s quality
To me, the Waterboys are way better than U2. Far superior as time passed
Karl!
RIP.
This was great to see.Love this line up.I know Mike,Anto + Karl but the drummer is very good too.
It’s Chris Whitten on this gig
Karl still on board at the time.
4:52 Amazing!
Thanks for watching and commenting
R.i.p karl wallinger!
❤
Fantastic footage thanks for sharing this 👍. I've just subscribed cheers .
Thanks and welcome
i reckon if you were there, heard this, you'd just know...
I saw them at Parkhead I think? Lloyd Cole was playing too. Early 80’s? I doubt there’s any footage of that but I think it was on the old grey whistle test🤔
I have the full Whistle Test show on video, I'd just bought a brand new video recorder that day and tested it by recording that show.
Mike Scott didn’t write lyrics, he wrote Russian novels.
Soar on Karl Wallinger RIP.
dang Mike look how young
Hey, love what you do and big fan of the channel and am a subscriber. I have a pretty large playlist of music videos and live performances, made from a few digital playlists put together, to play on the tv. One of my favourites by these guys is Church Not Made With Hands. If you have a live performance of this song I would appreciate you posting it very much. It currently stands as my favourite song not in the video playlist. Thanks, best wishes and success.
Woooo
You liked this? 🙂
@@ScottishTeeVeeYeah followed the waterboys since ‘86
@@juliepolk9796 Thanks for watching and commenting Julie🙂
@@ScottishTeeVee The video is great
After watching this great moment ...I think I like digital over analog
pearls before swine on this tv show....hey ho...
Not really, since we watched it on TV.And followed them ever since
Karl was there 😢
What became of the odd Scottish lassie who introduced them here? Forgotten her name.
She has lead a very diverse career en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muriel_Gray
Do you have the interview Scott Walker did on The Tube and the video of ”Track 3” from 1984?
I don't have it. I Don't have much by Scott Walker, other than a 19 minute VHS EPK (Electronic Press Kit) tape sent to me by his record company, if its not already online, then I will upload it.
Should have played church not made with hands...
Do you have The Smithereens on the Tube from about 87ish?
I was a big fan of The Smithereens and I have already uploaded that performance, you can see all my Smithereens uploads, so far, via this playlist ua-cam.com/play/PLMe0CUMuSN6Gure9uZXcZc-qnjJN7D-44.html
Anyone know the name of the girl host who gave the intro?
Muriel Gray
@@ScottishTeeVee Thx!
Man the audience is not doing the Scots any favors. They all seem dead to the amazing groudbreaking music they're being exposed to. Except for a few people in the back letting loose. What a waste of amazing talent, and an amazing band. So sad I was not old enough to see the power lineup of Scott, Wallinger and Thistlethwaite
Can’t blame the jocks! Newcastle isn’t in Scotland 😂🤣😂
@@marshallh9 sad thing is, I grew up in London, so I know that. I totally went braindead there when I wrote the comment... it's in the title.. duh! :)
Audiences on The Tube were always like that. Too cool for school 🙄
Mind you, live tv recordings can be intimidating.
Now that Karl is gone, I'm hoping he had patched things up with Mike.
Who's the funky trombone player? 😎
Not Irish X
Karl Wallinger went on to write much better songs than those here. Mike Scott was the weaker partner. Pagan Place has little going for it musically, no modulations, borrowed chords or surprises and is really just folk music.
I forgot how annoying she was!
ScootishTeeVee have lot o f great videos, But seriously annoying with his logos so appear periodically. So the videos are not for me
Life must be hard for you
A Pagan Place
A Girl Called Johnny
Savage Earth Heart
RIP Karl
I could never get into this.
