- Order ‘1977’ splatter vinyl here: ashband.lnk.to...
Ash’s debut LP ‘1977’ has been reissued for the first time on stunning black and white splatter vinyl. This spectacular debut release was a defining record for 90s guitar music, reaching No.1 in the Official UK Albums Chart, and going to achieve platinum status. It includes singles ‘Girl From Mars’, ‘Kung Fu’, ‘Goldfinger’, ‘Angel Interceptor’ and ‘Oh Yeah’ which remain staples of the Ash’s live show.
This is the first time the album has been re-issued since its 1996 release.
Released in March 1995, ‘Kung Fu’ is Ash’s paean to martial arts hero Jackie Chan and The Ramones. Eric Cantona’s infamous flying kick dons the cover art. He berated the band, faxing their label, “I spit on your record”.
Written on Boxing Day 1994 at Belfast International Airport, ‘Kung Fu’ is the first Ash single produced by Owen Morris and was recorded using the The Verve’s equipment while they recording their album ‘A Northern Soul’ nearby. The track’s intro samples Close Encounters of the Spooky Kind (Sammo Hung) which Channel 4 had shown over Christmas.
‘Kung Fu’ was also picked up by Jackie Chan himself and the song is used in the title credits to his film Rumble in the Bronx.The track also featured in the soundtrack of the 1995 film ‘Angus’, alongside the band’s debut single ‘Jack Names the Planets’.
‘Kung Fu’ was the first Ash single to feature on the band’s number one debut album ‘1977’, released in May 1996, and has remained a consistent fan favourite in the band’s live sets throughout the band’s 25 year career.
The video was directed by Steven Wells (NME) and Nick Small and filmed at The Venue, New Cross, London.
The single was re-mixed for US release by Rob Cavallo (Green Day, Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance) and Jerry Finn (Blink-182, Green Day, AFI).

#ash #1977 #kungfu

Same but idk maybe its cuz I'm 16
@@BradyRowland hahahah
1996 forever!
Everyone's all "RUMBLE IN THE BRONX" and I'm like "...but Angus though..."
James May's Cars of the People
My all time favorite 'end credit' song.
I know this comment is six years old, but this is also one of my favorite end credit songs. Another is "Don't Call It a Comeback" at the end of "The Hard Way" with James Woods and Michael J Fox. Also, whatever the song was that played at the end of the first Jason Bourne movie with Matt Damon.
Whos here in 2024? My older bros band toured with these 😍
Who was the band?
Me
@@dennisPamungkas my bros band were called special needs... Tracks like blue skies and Sylvia 😍
This used to be the theme song for a local show in my area called "Friday Night Fu" when I was in junior high and high school. They'd air old kung fu movies and give them a variation of the MST3K treatment, playing humorous-yet-fitting music during various scenes and saving the commentary for just before or after a commercial. I'd try to stay up and watch it, but sometimes I'd fall asleep... It was awesome.
jackie chan is a legend ,one of the best stunt men ever .his movies combine kung fu and comedy perfectly
Long before Michael Jackson died, all my life, I've wanted to see Jackie Chan and Michael Jackson together.
Glad to be a teen of the nineties! Go Jackie Chan!!!!
Wish I was in the audience for that gig. They all look so happy
That was the 90s! So angsty and somehow deliriously happy at the same time, take me back pleeeease.
bring back the 90's
I was born in 1994 and I couldn't agree more.
Rumble in Bronx has the best fight scene ever
My favorite fight scene from Rumble in the Bronx is the one where Keung fought Tony and his gang at their hideout.
2023 almost 2024 thanks Jackie chan

I hope this is seen as a complement, but i could imagine the Ramones playing this.
I upvoted you 9 years later...I hope you're still alive to see this.
saw them live in Norwich a few months ago and this was the last song they played in the encore.. i've beeen in some Mosh pits but the place went crazy! magical!
I honestly can't remember the last time I saw so many fans looking so happy.
2024 here💪
Rumble in the Bronx!
My favorite part was when Keung fought Tony and his gang at their hideout.
Kung Fu, do what you do to me
I haven't been the same since my teenage lobotomy
Full on and move to Hong Kong
With Bruce Lee's brother and Johnny Wong
I think it's strange, he's friends with Fu Manchu
And he thinks he knows you, oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh
Oh, Daniel-san, made in Taiwan
Come on, Jackie Chan, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Last night Jackie Chan came 'round
I played pool with him and we hung out
Mr. Miyagi and the X-Men
Called in for a while as well
I think it's strange, he's friends with Fu Manchu
And he thinks he knows you, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, Daniel-san, made in Taiwan
Come on, Jackie Chan, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
This one
Yeah, Kung Fu, do what you do to me
I can't live without my Kung Fu movies
"Shanghai Killers" and "Deadly Road"
My life was ruined when the Green Dragon closed
Oh, I think it's strange he's friends with Fu Manchu
And he thinks he loves you, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, Daniel-san. made in Taiwan
Come on, Jackie Chan, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I think it's strange he's friends with Fu Manchu
And he's in love with you, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, Daniel-san, made in Taiwan
Come on, Jackie Chan, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Still gets my adrenaline pumping every time I hear it!!!!!! Love this song!!!
Who wouldn't want to hang out and play pool with Jackie Chan?
I would. In fact, long before Michael Jackson died, all my life, I've wanted to see Jackie Chan and Michael Jackson together
Hong Kongers
If it wasn't for Gran Turismo...I would have never heard of these guys...Ash you guys rock!
One of my top 90s anthems.
Un francais qui kiffe Jacky Chan! 👍 Cette chanson me rappel tellement ces cascades incroyables qu'il faisait lui meme dans tout ces films! J'ai vu tous ces films de la hyene intrépide à Jacky Chan dans le bronx (rumble in the bronx) en passant par tout les police story et les films avec son compagnon Sammo Hung , cest un grand et il sera le best pour moi toute ma vie, merci Jacky! Merci pour toutes ces emotions!
I listened to this all through my teens in 2K16 and now again I revisit the tune in 2023
Yes that's right. Cracking song. Happy memories. Nearly 20 yrs old.
Fuck, we're getting old... but we're still rockin'!
Brings me back a long way...
I love "ANGUS" soundtrack...
My Uncle Angus loves the Angus soundtrack!
I was on 4th grade when this came out. I didnt heard about them then, neither saw the video. I would listen to it for the first time in 2001 or so. I liked it. And I still like it. And I would have liked it in 1996.
Boys just want to have funと感じました！
これガチで好き
classic 90's rock track, about kung fu and jackie chan we love you man.
Long before Michael Jackson died, all my life, I've wanted to see Jackie Chan and Michael Jackson together.
One of the best song of the album!
I love Jackie Chan!!!

Soooo great, the song is in the LIVE vids even better. 5*
Who here grew up with rumble in the bronx as their first introduction to Jackie chan?
Me 🙂
Rumble In The Bronx baby
Best one of his, imo.
Thumbs up if you still love the movie Angus!
I had a dark red ASH tsirt (which I bought in a charity shop) in the mid 1990s. I was dead cool.
the only shit thing about this song is that it's only 2.17 long and I have to click the repeat button too often to continue listening to it
early ash always reminded me of the buzzcocks
Great song but what is with the compression? The only version that doesn't feel like its in 64kbps is the live version, which is super strange!
@NyYankees1985 I Also ... Great Compilation almost unknown movie, great perform with the first heard also of J.A.R. by Green Day and partecipations of other great semi-unknown Band....Great memories of '90....
According to this song, Fu Manchu found love. Good for him.
Why did the rumble in the bronx end credits turn down the vocals? I liked their first two albums.
June 2020!
Who's listening to this in 2023
It's the 90's!
Damn it's so hard to find their stuff on the internet.
"Whataaaaaaa'
The one guy was saying *Dayum!* not _damn..._
ost of cantona legendary kick
🖤
2015 is still................ :)
What a fu*king song.. Love it!
I've never heard this song but was intrigued after learning that the cover art to this was eric cantona and his kung fu kick at crystal palace which again have only learned about today. not a bad song though.
just seen them live tonight in Norwich and they played this :D
Am I the only one who thinks when he says 'Green Dragon ' thinks of The Green Ranger and the Dragonzord?
Does anyone remember them using a clip of Eric Cantonas drop kick on a rival fan?
I heard this last night on some weird jacki chan film, cracking song!
10 years later and the same thing just happened to me.
being Northern Irish doesn't make you any less Irish than bands from the Republic
That sounds like IRA talk. And I know you hate that.
Long before Michael Jackson died, all my life, I've wanted to see Jackie Chan and Michael Jackson together.
yeah this one is cool too ...
Blew my mind seeing these live at Reading! They played in the tent *possibly* the same year as the Foo Fighters, anyway, what a band, what an album!
I was there too 😁 what a night
Cool.
2018 ,yep. RUMBLE IN THE BRONX is on netflix.now my kids can watch it
Just be prepared for the arsenal holes behind you my friend x
