Loved this band. They appeared in the late 1980's and disappeared after that (at least in America). Cleopatra Grip is a timeless album. Sounds great even today.
I'm sorry, but ‘Vertical Smile’ was extremely disappointing, veering towards banal, unoriginal rock, whereas ‘Cleopatra Grip’ was and remains an absolute masterpiece.
@@francisbroka9471 Each to their own, but I found the album quite innovative and I would rink it number two up there three major albums. Perry Said and Love Is are amazing with the entire album providing decades long replay value for me.💯
thank you so much for uploading this...still love their music, perfect not only, but especially for meaningful autumn and winter evenings now to come...
In 2020, literally 30 years after it happened, when I had no way of seeing it at the time, I just watched an interview and unplugged session with the Heart Throbs. Entirely unironically, what a time to be alive. Person who originally posted this in 2016: you have made my life demonstrably better in a year which sorely needs this. Well done. Peace, love and wellness to you and your family.
Wonderful to see this. Cleopatra Grip is one of my favourite albums from my teenage years. Beautiful, romantic, epic, otherworldly. Still love this band
Thanks for posting this great video. Never seen this before! Got their 3 albums in prob my late teens early 20s, first two especially great. Remember seeing I Wonder Why and Dreamtime on TV, probably on The Chart Show on Channel 4 when they did the Indie chart run-down. Such a good and underrated band although one of my housemates at college used to ask me why I was listening to that wailing woman again. But they had no taste obviously!!

Absolutely superb. Still love this band today as much as I did in the early 90s. Rose's beautiful voice is music to my ears.
This is THE most under-rated / under-discovered band in history. I STILL listen to all three albums and their bootlegs regularly.

Very, very underrated, in my opinion...

I'm the person that posted this.. many thanks for your kind comments. It was fantastic at the time and even better now! hope you are keeping safe!
@@graveme6165 The Heart Throbs are literally my favourite band ever. Everything after them is just trying to make up for their inadequacies xx

Lovely, I've never seen this before. One of my all-time favourite bands.
One of my eternal favs. Have no idea why they are nit better known. Great songwriting, production, etc.

i think first live Heart Throbs video on UA-cam...thanks for that Dave...
Some of the best 80s is the least known.
Wonderful.
Wonderful. Too clever to play the game, I saw them live several times. First two albums are girl power without the pose and all the content.
"Give me shameless lust that never grows old". Great clip, thanks for posting.
Beautiful
