Even though Blackie seems to disown the whole Inside the Electric Circus era, that's my favorite album and lineup this band ever had. I'm probably in the minority on this one, but it's still my favorite.
I remember when Circus came out and how people just fled the WASP camp and went all in on thrash and death metal bands instead. That album was such a let down for the fans after The Last Command, WASP never really recovered from it. Not to insult your taste dude, but I was 18 at that point and I remember how WASP almost disappeared over night. My guess is Blackie remembers this too and that album brings back the bad memories of being on top of the world one day to the next being back to playing in clubs.
@@eltoro969 well.... W.A.S.P. never quite got on top cause they were just to....serious maybe, or too hard without comprise. They were always catching up, but had great traction for a spell in any case. A band without widespread commercial success in the 80's will morph and falter somehow eventually. Blackie on the cover of the Circus album, 'glaming out' and slicking wasps sond was a move.. but a death knell to be sure. Great band, great idea, great vision, but a stubborn mission statement in Blackie and never really quite broke as a band the way he would have hoped.. the band didn't really have "songs" But I remember the blurbs and the tiny black-and-white mentions in the Hit Parader and Circus magazines in in the early to mid eighties and I was always absolutely in and I was always absolutely intrigued. I just loved the rip saws in the body suits and the Gray streaks!
its criminal that bands like poison,twisted sister motley crue and others get more recognition than W.A.S.P do in all those programs on mtv/vh1 and even on compilation albums when it comes to 80's rock/metal....W.A.S.P material has stood and continues to stand like a giant middle finger to the test of time...went vand see them 2 weeks ago on the 25th anniversary of the crimson idol tour and it kicked fucking ass!!...W.A.S.P forever!!!
In the big picture, WASP actually had a pretty short peak of success between 83 and 87. Most fans, like myself lost interest for them when Inside The Electric Circus came out. I was 18 and I remember how every WASP fan I knew hated it. Back then it was a constant flow every month of new bands and genres, so if you failed on ONE album you were quickly yesterdays news. And in 1987 WASP was sadly enough just that. The Headless Children is a great album but it got completely over-looked and still to date is a highly underrated album. But it proves my point about having to keep up with hit albums in the 80s. The competition was INSANE back then and WASP was never able to bring back their old fans after Circus. But they got a lot of new younger fans and many black metal heads loves that album.
@@eltoro969 i think the other problem was they didn't have a big power ballad hit....that's what kept every 80s metal band afloat and made them giant stars. It's the same reason Ratt never got as big as Motley Crue, they never had the power ballad. Motley would have been over too if it werent for Home Sweet Home
It's all about imagery and marketing, the path of WASP wasn't mainstream success even they were good, girls and partying were the route, as for a power ballad to success you can ponder on Iron Maiden for how that's not the route, WASP couldn't keep a solid band together as well, Blackie is all thats left
Steven Harp.I was lucky enough to see their first ever gig at a club called the Woodstock in O.C. one of my at the time was Fu**ing Blackie and The bass player was Don Costa.
I have been impressed all videos in the album since watched video tape in the past and I hope this 'First Blood Last Visions' album will be re-release also on DVD & Blu-ray remaster in the near future. 😊📀

Dude it is not playback, this is a compilation video, but I got intrigue; what was your experience with WASP doing playbakc or lip synch or whatever? I always thought that they were a live band as well and I have seen many concert clips and videos that look that way
Eduardo Ravelo Yeah they have allways played live. I have seen them at least five times and it´s totally live i´m 100% sure because you can hear mistakes if you listen carefully... Still love them even i´m sad chris didn´t handle that lifestyle good enough to survive...

I liked the electric circus but be the last command was a hard act to follow. But really is it just me does anyone reading this think like me he had the idol planned or at least brewing in his head probably even back when he put out the the circus album?
Personally...i loved Blackie hammering on that BCRich tarantula bass..i thought it was the perfect fit for him fronting the band...fuck yea..WASP was so raw on their 1st couple albums and Tours....i saw them open up fo Maiden in 84 i think was...at UNO Lakefront Arena....New Orleans...man as a 15 yr old i thought that was the fuckin greatest thing Id EVER witnessed...still do..back then bands actually brought a badass stage show...imagine that!!!!
( Leave your comment in English ) WASP music ain't bad . But the problem with the band is that they don't have Nice Musics-Songs tbh What do ye say guys ?
I do not think that anybody is saying that the content of the upload is from 1993, the video is called first blood last visions and was released in 1993 that is all
That lead guitar on L O V E sounds he had a knife to his back. I know it would taken at least that to get me to fly over this very bad song. One in many they had. I don't blame Chris Hole-inums so much.
Even though Blackie seems to disown the whole Inside the Electric Circus era, that's my favorite album and lineup this band ever had. I'm probably in the minority on this one, but it's still my favorite.
Al Fiend no man I love that era and line up, live in the raw is still one of my favorite albums of all time and I got it back in like 86 on cassette
For sure, it rocks dude

2023 and Hold on to my heart still hits me hard.
one of the greatest band ever , Shit how much i love Heavy Metal ,that brings me back to the golden 80`s and its great

Thanks for this! Wasp and Blackie are legends and I still listen to them now 🤘🔥💯

No habra otra decada como los 80s para rock-metal, quiero un D'lorean para ver tan gloriosa epoca.
Trust me don't count on that being true😉 next gen is coming 🎸🎸
I would Love to see Early (Live)Shows/(Troubador Club) 1982-1984🤟☠️🤟
best line up in wasp history
Blackie, Chris, Randy and Tony.... best line up, hands down.
aluka stalker BlackieLawless,RandyPiper,Chris Holmes,Steve Riley Was Best Lineup 84-86
But Tony Was Good Too
I’ve loved all the lineups but Blackie, Mike Duda, Daryl Roberts and Stet Howland wasn’t a bad lineup either.
'Headless Children' and 'Crimson Idol' lineups was great w. Johnny Rod.
Steven Harp.I was lucky enough to see their first ever gig at a club called the Woodstock in O.C. one of my at the time was Fu**ing Blackie and The bass player was Don Costa.
good memories brings! Thanks for uploading! goosebumps!

My ol time favorite
KISS AWAY THE PAIN AND LEAVE ME LONELYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
the best !!!
2019... still listening baby!
I saw WASP last weekend in San Antonio. Really good show. Michael Schenker and Armored Saint opened.
best voice and singer in metal, end of contest.
Great live band. Saw them on The Last Command tour. I wanna say that Krokus and Fastway were on the bill and the tickets were $12.
metal music should still be like this, less special effects and more good stuff...
with assless trousers included or not?
optionally, ofc
in this kind of music, who cares about the trousers ,when music is awesome !!! wasp forever ,
I really don`t want to be THAT GUY but there is a LOT of effects on WASP albums after the first one. It`s just hidden in that WASP wall of reverb.
Exelente .
Era, the year when the sunset is still decorated with GLAM metal people ...
I love blakie lawless
genial
That Bob Kulick lead is so awesome!
wasp and the last command the best albums
Holmes' guitar is the classic definition of "road-worn".
I love wasp
Bringing back Johnny Rod to do the touring for The Crimson Idol is like one of Blackie's best decisions.
genial wasp forever lml
Best band ever
Só tenho uma coisa a dizer: wasp forever.
KILLER!!!)')

I saw WASP open for Kiss back in the 1980's, they kicked ass .Raw and nasty.
I like Blackie’s bass work better than Mike’s and his own guitar work
All the way up to Headless then :(
where is arena of pleasure video!that should of been added from crimson idol.
LOVE MACHINE VIDEO.....The 80s were great, lol. What was the point of the girl in the aquarium ? Lol....crazy ass video..
It was the creators era in music videos for sure and they went all in lol. Great times.
Incredible solos by Chris Holmes what a f****** underrated guitarist he is it's so f****** badass it's not even funny
They must have had really good recording equipment for these wasp videos because you can hear 👂every pick hit from Blackie's pick
やっぱデブじゃないブラッキーはカッコええ
Don't you love this song hail Blackie
Fucking coollllllllllllllllllllll
He was soooooo handsome for a while, without makeup
He never should have dropped Randy Piper from the band. It was all downhill for WASP after that.
fucking playback hell yeahhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tie you down, down I come, steal your love
I'm on the prowl and I watch you closely
I lie waiting for you
I'm the wolf with the sheepskins clothing
I lick my chops and you're tastin' good
I do whatever I want to do ya
I'll nail your ass to the sheets
A pelvic thrust and the sweat starts to sting ya
I fuck like a beast

Tie you down, down I come, steal your love

1:38 Backing track?
Every "live" video has overdubs on it
Yup. Blackie likes them to replicate studio harmonies. Kind of odd in metal, but that's what it is.
I liked the electric circus but be the last command was a hard act to follow. But really is it just me does anyone reading this think like me he had the idol planned or at least brewing in his head probably even back when he put out the the circus album?
The idol was in his head in the late 70’s man
Not 93 Holmes left the band in 90
And then rejoined again later.
must know more.............Monster86
Holmes didn't rejoin until 1996, besides Blackie is playing bass here, so it must be before 1988.
