Hitch hiked to Reading from Morecambe to meet my brother and his friends on the Thursday. Couldn't find him till the Saturday. Had been sleeping by people's campsites. Pissing down rain. Fucking miserable. Saturday afternoon saw my brother finally. No mobiles back then. Went to the record fair outside, got tickets off people leaving and sold them to people going in. Made enough money for a ticket. Got in the actual festival finally. This was the first thing I saw. Awesome.
Mad respect for this band! "Underrated" has become a cliche, but seriously, Kula Shaker have never received the recognition they deserved. You can see they LOVE music & performing, this along is priceless
You can't tell it from the video - "Rain" starts shaky because they improvised playing the song when a sudden shower started at the end of "Tattva". Unforgettable moment.
I was at this show and it's one of the stand out memories of the weekend. I turned 21 while at the festival and at the time Kula Shaker were my favourite band so this was a highlight.
The 90s was the last decade that rocked live music wise. I think everything seemed to change around the time of the overuse of portable technology and X-factor.
A lot of it had to do with the change in the way music was consumed too - downloading and streaming replaced buying actual physical copies (CDs and vinyl).
@@johnnycalvino7490 More so streaming I think, there are music consumers that are never away from the internet. When I first started downloading - Napster, Kazaa, AudioGalaxy - I burnt music to CDRs, Even when Mp3 players came out (which I still use when on the move) the process of listening was (is) still without the need for streaming.
@@johnnycalvino7490 Yes, once upon a time it took effort to save money and go to a physical shop to buy physical music and then put in effort to listen to it. Recently everything has been so throwaway. Attention spans have also decreased.
I know that "underrated" gets thrown around a lot but damn. They were so f*xkin cool, and they had the tunes. That voice, those riffs... It all felt so effortlessly perfect. It's really a shame that they didn't get more recognition.
As a musician, it makes feel a bit better witnessing my favorite band relatably struggling with sound guy issues. Definitely know what it's like when a festival sound guy can't give you anything you're asking for. Yet, the sound does sound really good here in the video!

I think this is one of the times one says "Cool Story Bro" but actually means it.
Fucking dancer... Damn good memories bro ❤

Fenomenal band, but evidently not many people can grasp their genius, a trip out of the squared box of ordinary life

Quality. That improvised version of Rain is wonderful.

The 90s at their very best ... ❤❤❤❤

HELL YESSSSSS Love Them. Look at the crowd going crazy. I love their beat/vibe 🤘
Saw them on the k tour in Atlanta GA at the fox theater kick ass live still love them ❤❤❤❤❤ 🎶 🎵
Thanks for uploading Pablo. My favourite band of the nineties and I'll be seeing them again in a couple of months 👍
All of them 100% confident on their instruments, amazing. Loved them since K was released, pure nostalgia.
I was there . Met crispian February this year after a gig in Southampton. Hang out with band , about 8 of us. Humbling experience
Uf!, la mejor performance que he visto, me levanto el espiritu.
I've seen them several times and they never disappoint. Always fantastic live.
When the world was at its best.
Hey Dude! This was almost 28 years ago . . . .
they're only the band Oasis could have been
Nigel gallagher's The Oasis
I agree:Kula Shaker was oasis with muscle. Whatever happened to them??? Anybody???
They are currently on tour and their latest album (which almost broke the top 20 album chart) was released in February 2024.
still going strong
They never stopped.

That sounds aaaamazing.
Amazing and *BEST* song for me 6:20
Say what you will about Kula Shaker...
Was I there? Might of been!😂
Might HAVE been
when music festivals had new modern acts with actual quality… not it’s all just rubbish and legacy acts
