This has everything from you could want from MES. Carrier bag, jacket removal, early exit, 1 mic, 2 mics, keyboard fiddling, amp fiddling, faulty megaphone. Great song, great performance.

@@colinwilkes8957 it's funny how when you discover something new you realize you can't live without it. Mark e smith's lyrics are just mind blowingly brilliant. Never encountered a lyricist like him❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰
I rediscovered The Fall about 7 years ago. I was in my mid forties and was familiar with the "hits". They're now a constant in my musical diet and I've probably only heard half their catalogue.
I'm a 53 yo man,lol,But I found this band just b4,my 50th, A LOT HAPPENED, in my world, CRASH, BANG,WOLLOP, got a smile today ❤, thanks Mark, didn't no ya,fair'd income mate RIP BUDDY 🙏,I'm a latch key kid,our kid
It dosn't get much better for me this, I put my Dads ashes in the fire box of steam train, (East Lancs Railway) and this track was my 'ear worm' and kept me together that day, I've loved The Fall since I was 15 (47 now!) and feel a tad lost without Dad and Mark E, top fellas!! Thanks for the upload
one of my favorite bands, been together so long, sad🖤 Mark Smith 🖤 who's voice give the band made them special ,. Been folowing since the beginning, great lyrics
This world of ours is going to be a far lot worse with the very sad loss of the genius that is Mark E Smith, what a legacy , what a legend, will be very sadly missed.. God bless. x
He's fucking loaded yet it sounds amazing. Love the onstage antics, fucking with equipment then tidying up his beer bottles. What a guy Mark E Smith was, great young band at the time too!
As a huge fall fan i always wished my mates would love them as much as I would/do or even listen to them but i know know that i am the lucky one who gets them. I think the new generation of post punk bands (i hate that term) like idles and fontaines dc who are clearly influenced will be what people will truly remember the fall for, a massive influence and hopefully people will take the time to listen to them and appreciate them/he truly was, the greatest rock grupe ever
@@badmen1550 I don't disagree with you slightly mate, MES is a f#@kin GOD! No one will ever make music like he did, being so adamant not to change his vision even if it meant less money and album sales?? Well I believe that and I also believe in 20-30 years time the fall will be held in the same regard if not more than the velvet underground as THE influential band without compromise so i think my point is the fall are the greatest GROUP ever bar none, sorry about the rant man lol
@@nwo4life708 correct! The Velvets were so far ahead of the pack that people only realised how brilliant they were when they were no longer around. Thank God I understood The Fall from the beginning.
I pretty sure it was Frank Skinner who said this, but it sums up MES and the Fall sound to me perfectly: There are other good bands about but they are like de-caff coffee, but The Fall are the real deal, full strength. Hip Priest ... you are truly appreciated by those of us who know, ‘and they knoowww!!!’
supe de the fall cuando escuche esa brutal voz en glitter freeze(gorillaz- plastic beach) sin embargo al escuchar canciones de the fall nunca me llegaron a convencer Esta es el que hizo el click y actualmente mi favorita descansa en paz Mark E. Smith
Absolutely ! So wish this was available on CD somewhere or available as a download. I have a community radio program & I'd so love to be able to share this Live In the Basement version MES - Amazing !!!!!
Could go down the route of commenting about how this is real music, but that is too obvious. What this is, is the music of agitation; fed-up, fucked off, and proudly working class. If there is one thing good knows about how many years of tory rule that beckons it is that maybe, just maybe, we get more bands and artists that will be of similar suit emerging. It was said in another comment but it is so true - we need more "scaring folk with hubris" that comes from working class stock in guitar music. Sleaford Mods are the only thing that comes close, but aren't really guitar music in its traditional form. We need that traditional four or five piece who *are* a bit bored, edgy and perhaps even self-indulgent to inspire; bands who just churn it out and care not for appearing on Jonathon Ross, reaching the masses with commercial friendly tat, or what-fucking-ever.
It's Twin Peaks you're thinking of. You know - that series with the dream sequences that had a dwarf with an unnaturally broad cranium, a furrowed brow and a very weathered complexion who spoke gnomic riddles in gibberish - And you know what? That's him on vocals here.
@dreszczu Couldn't agree more! I wasn't too crazy about IMPERIAL WAX SOLVENT really, a shame too as there is some great songs on it but on a whole..less for me than other recent albums. This is an ace version here of "latch Key Kid" though
I was just thinking the same, they all use to be on UA-cam at one time and there was four tracks altogether. 1- Is This New. 2- Wolf Kidult Man. 3- 50 Year Old Man 4- Latch Key Kid. Luckily I managed to downloaded them all as MP3 `s but I`ve lost, " Is This New ". Shame as the quality is superb and the bass on this track makes me balls tingle
It’s great, the band are tight and everything, but not MES’s finest work....give me the raw power of Live at the Witch Trials and Grotesque ATG any day....I fucking worshipped the Fall back then.
This has everything from you could want from MES. Carrier bag, jacket removal, early exit, 1 mic, 2 mics, keyboard fiddling, amp fiddling, faulty megaphone. Great song, great performance.
missing the black leather glove on one hand
SepticSceptic all it needs is coming in after 30 seconds with 'good evening we are the fall coming to you from the long long days....'
hahahah yeah didn't he have that for a glastonbury performance? so good

I've only recently discovered the fall at the grand old age of 49. They've saved my life xxxxx
Never too old Claire I saw them once in 2012, at the grand old age of 54.top

Yes ,certain groups have that effect-sparklehorse and talk talk also do it for me.lately I discovered yo la tengo,better late ,etc.

Good on ya! They've saved countless lives :)
Drummer is totally on it. As is bass player. Tight as. Magnificent

bass player is always a mountain. they continue as Imperial Wax, but there is no harder act to follow than this mutant...
Manchester's best export without a doubt: RIP for eternity MES!'

Wow
God bless you, your Dad and MES
In fifty years time , music critics will cite this band (group) , as the most influential , and the most important band (group) of all time .
They already do
F';';years they are that now , WAY now !!!! ...lol
The Fall and Grateful Dead will get their due
Except if Bill Haley started it The Fall most certainly ended it!
(group)
one of my favorite bands, been together so long, sad🖤 Mark Smith 🖤 who's voice give the band made them special ,. Been folowing since the beginning, great lyrics
Just when you think you can’t find another brilliant live performance on here ......... boom .
2:39 The most artistic exit from the stage ever. We miss his music.
I'm getting my daily dose of Latch Key Kid. It brings me out of the dumps every time.
Probably the best singer in the world without having to sing. Listen ....
This world of ours is going to be a far lot worse with the very sad loss of the genius that is Mark E Smith, what a legacy , what a legend, will be very sadly missed.. God bless. x
I love how he fucks off with his bag of booze 'n' gear near the end! His missus is well fit tho', let's face it
True rock 'n' roll,
every day forever Jesus waits for MES to walk by and hopes he will wave today
Gold gold gold
Audio is mixed so well.
That boy Nigel Godrich killing it
He's fucking loaded yet it sounds amazing. Love the onstage antics, fucking with equipment then tidying up his beer bottles. What a guy Mark E Smith was, great young band at the time too!
Loaded? Nah
Total class! R.I.P. Mr.Smith. You were one of a kind.
'The maestro; a true loss; every time i hear a fall song, I get a lump in my throat
Beyond marvellous!!
We are The Fall
watching MES wander around the stage with a voice change megaphone is a joy in itself
It's a shame I found these too late love to see them in concert
This is incredible.
One day a film will be made about Mark and his life, I hope it will be in my lifetime- credit to whoever plays his part tho top fella !
This is tremendous.
This is just very wonderful in every way.

Aint it just! my house vibrates.

FONTAINES D.C DEFO HEAVILY INFLUENCED FROM THE FALL GOOD BAND THE THOUGH
Idles and Fontaines DC are alright, but they don't have half the wit or intelligence of MES, who was a true poet.

Wotta track! Privilege to have been on the planet with him ... A true chronicler of our time ...
Brilliant comment,so true.
Best fall song ever....for now !!!!! Luv it.....
These days i have sooo much faith in Rock N Roll just by listening this band!!!
Sheer and utter brilliance
The bassplayer, I believe this is David Spurr, has an awsome grunt in his groove. This version is ace!
he's so 100%
The best Fall line up.
Burnden Paddock. No where near best line up. In my opinion
It isn't,
no Steve Hanley for a start
Perfection. Brilliant. RIP Mark. A great loss to fine music.
one wanders off to listen to other great musics, but on return it's like - ah that's how it's done, all over again
that was some surreal shit right there.
It sure is somethin'. Never heard this band before... Some reason I like it but i dont know why.
It Is All The Fall.)
Wow...just found this....great track....miss the Fall...and MES.....
Wow, so happy I get them...
koja legenda!
You can hear why MES stuck with this Fall line up. So, so tight man.
great thanks...superb sound !
MES fucking off with his carrier bag, brilliant!
I pretty sure it was Frank Skinner who said this, but it sums up MES and the Fall sound to me perfectly: There are other good bands about but they are like de-caff coffee, but The Fall are the real deal, full strength.

I don’t know what Brexit is but Mark said he was against it.
There is not one thing wrong with this performance.
Gavin Kershaw Nah, only adds to it.
Perfect!!
Apart from the talentless gurner on vocals. Everything else is sharp as fuck.
@@stuartmack7658 troll.....
I saw this line-up several times. They were mesmerising. I’ve never bothered to check on what they’re up to now MES is no longer with us.
MES... musical fookin genius..
excellent, as usual!
Great stuff - more power to yer elbow Mark E.
RIP Genious!
Kocham!
sick lineup!

This version is so much better than on Imperial Wax Solvent. Can you get it as a live album?
Absolutely !
So wish this was available on CD somewhere or available as a download.

Extraordinary music by ordinary people.
the end was funny as hell! He's like "I'm out this bitch."
I've seen a bassist and a keyboardist hit Smith full in the face for messing with their stuff in a concert! Still, it's all part of the Fall legend!
where was that?
Sean Michael Wilson Liverpool Krazy House end of the 90s. I believe there was a line up change after that one!
how can somebody dislike this??
shame on you 12 people with really bad taste in music!
Which David Lynch film is this?
Not sure but I think Angelo Badalementi's Twin Peaks theme 'Falling' has been replaced temporarily by The Fall
It's Twin Peaks you're thinking of. You know - that series with the dream sequences that had a dwarf with an unnaturally broad cranium, a furrowed brow and a very weathered complexion who spoke gnomic riddles in gibberish - And you know what? That's him on vocals here.
You mean the floor pattern and the velvet curtains?
@@KevTheImpaler Yes, those things, and the whole vibe just makes me think David Lynch, especially Blue Velvet.

Where's the rest of this performance gone ?
Please, please, please.
Can someone upload the other two songs "Is this new" and "50 y.o." ?
yeah...quick...50y.o.m.used to be on......
I was just thinking the same, they all use to be on UA-cam at one time and there was four tracks altogether.
1- Is This New.
2- Wolf Kidult Man.
3- 50 Year Old Man
4- Latch Key Kid.
Luckily I managed to downloaded them all as MP3 `s but I`ve lost, " Is This New ". Shame as the quality is superb and the bass on this track makes me balls tingle
I agree, a bad ass group of tunes
