Unbelievable to see these guys still performing. Have all their Albums since I discovered their music in 1987. Think they still deserve a bigger stage. Keep rocking Mark

With so many bands splitting up ie Hall and Oates or not even speaking (Spandau Ballet), how awesome to see a band still performing together, sounding great and clearly enjoying themselves. Thanks for posting.
I really can enjoy even more when Michael David Lindup sings Starchild with his dreamy voice and as great keyboard player too. He is a very important part of the typical Level 42 sound.
Fantastic capture quality! 📽️🔊 The sound - which can be hit & miss on here- is exceptional. Fantastic job.👌Oh yes, and L42 - pretty damn good aren't they?? 😊
This is too cool. THANK YOU x 1000 for sharing this. It's wonderful for an American fan like myself who can't get over there to see Level 42. They were here in 2010 and I'm grateful I not only got to see them, but I got to meet Mark and Mike after the show. They sound fantastic; Thanks again Christopher...peace!
Fantastic !!! Brings back so many great memories !!! A coach load of us went to watch them live at the Birmingham NEC, UK, back in 1988 at Christmas and they were just brilliant !!! They still sound as good now,,, LOVE IT !!! 😍😍😍🎸👌🔥🔥🔥
@@sirgaryo Surprised with that ´many a younger fans´ remark. They go hip-hop these days mostly, mainstream, rock, at least here in Slovakia a "jazz-funk" is almost dead. But the Czechs still have something. Even if you dont understand the lyrics: Its great. ua-cam.com/video/PrNUaT0ZtaA/v-deo.html
Nothing original about Thunderthumb…. maybe because he is white you thought that his bass playing was mistakenly superior to others that came way before him….. 🤔
One of my first favorites in ‘70, still Bas(-ic) strong and well. Pete Ray is (incredible) straight. 30.00 min. Favorite song and Some more. Thnx for the video
What a start this morning, been watching this fantastic concert, perfect sound and pictures, couldn't do better my training in the gym for 60 minutes, thanks so much! I haven't been able to see the boys live on stage for ages

Hi !! so much years a fan ! enjoy those tunes.. and livin'it up ! thank you for your footage C'N'K - thank you all the fans and the Band.. always Sir Lindup King ^^ [ missing Kansas City Milkman from my childhood v=CLbkJ4mDyWk - thank you 🙂 ]
Thank so much for posting this, Christopher!…I've listened to MANY Level concert vids over the years and this really does the concert justice. Amazing sound quality.
Omg....Level 42 r still spot on!! Since i played @ my 16th(1981) several instruments, we played these songs also with our band back then, mostly from the album starchild....now @ almost 60, i play these song still with our oldie goldie band hahahaha.......still rocking!🤣🤣🤓🤘💯 Thnx for the uploading, wish i was there.....
Never mind the musicianship I always loved the combination of Mark's voice with Mike's distinctive sweet falsetto. Seen them quite a few times over the last few years and I've only one criticism and that's the setlists. I do appreciate they are now a ' legacy ' band and lots of people will turn up expecting the the pop hits epitomised by the Running in the Family album. However, I'd like a few deeper cuts from the earlier days as there is so much more to them. Of course it's well known the Gould brothers didn't like pop direction they went in despite it being commercially successful.
The best funk band to ever come out of the UK. Please make a live album of this performance. Other performers; look and learn from outstanding musicians!
This recording IS The best what I've heard by Many ways! Firstly, you can hear every Instrument clearly! That drummer IS a bomb dropper, what a touch! Mark has always Been a very technical player but in this Set he's playing IS somehow More warm, They are playing a bit slower than before? This sound IS perfect!!!!!❤❤❤❤
At about the last note of the guitar solo the engineer managed to get it loud enough - 20 minutes - some could say guitar was loud from the stage but what about Mark King vocals ???
Unbelievable to see these guys still performing. Have all their Albums since I discovered their music in 1987. Think they still deserve a bigger stage. Keep rocking Mark

Good, so chart kids like me don't have to search forever for "Lessons in Love" among all these completely unknown songs...
🙃👎
Level 42 one of my favourite bands, remember going to see them at Wembley Arena in 1987. Still listen to them to this day.
one of my favorite bands back in the 80s
AND TODAY!
Pete Ray on drums is some kind of x man shizz ...jesus Christ.. a born funk magician.. incredible 😍

And not to forget, he's back to Jaydee . . . next step is getting rid of Markbass and return to Trace Elliot.
It's nuts, Mark and Mike have been touring now for over 40 years, that is quite an achievement.
I really can enjoy even more when Michael David Lindup sings Starchild with his dreamy voice and as great keyboard player too.
He is a very important part of the typical Level 42 sound.

A.M.A.Z.I.N.G bass and drummer on a different planet
That's a huge number of views within a couple of days for this brilliant concert !!!!!!!!! More new Level 42 albums please !!!
This is too cool. THANK YOU x 1000 for sharing this. It's wonderful for an American fan like myself who can't get over there to see Level 42.

INSANELY talented. All of them! DEFINITELY on a MUCH higher level that us mere mortal musicians. They are, after all LEVEL 42!!
Fantastic !!! Brings back so many great memories !!! A coach load of us went to watch them live at the Birmingham NEC, UK, back in 1988 at Christmas and they were just brilliant !!! They still sound as good now,,, LOVE IT !!! 😍😍😍🎸👌🔥🔥🔥
Are they adored in UK?
@ they were massive in the mid 80’s and 90’s and are still loved by us “older” guys 😂, although they have many younger fans too !

I saw them live last week in Leverkusen.What a great show it was...!!!🔥🔥🔥
Keep in mind that Love Games was written in the late 70ies. I'm glad that the band is still around, more or less intact.
Amazing! After 43 years they are still playing, while many of today are already forgotten after a year...
But there are only Mark and the Pianoman!! We had Listen live to Mark and bis Original guys 1983 in Würzburg !!
No kidding. Right NOW!!!???!!! Gotta watch and listen. Made my entire week. LOVE IT!!!!!
One of the best bassists ever to grace a stage. On guitar 😉.
Frost!!
@Tutor2KMC The instrument that the best bassist in the video is playing is not a bass guitar.
What the hell are you people talking about ? it's Mark King playing bass guitar .. you must be smoking some deadly meth
Agree! Going to see them for the first time this Saturday.
Nothing original about Thunderthumb…. maybe because he is white you thought that his bass playing was mistakenly superior to others that came way before him….. 🤔
Without doubts betwen the best band in the history. A huge job since the groove until the rythmic.🎸👏🍻💯
Mark sounds great. Gotta plan a trip to the UK next fall for the World Machine 40th tour!
This amazing quality in every way. What a great post! Thanks a million for this! ❤
Good for Mark and the boys. Kudos on a wonderfully long career sharing great music.
One of my first favorites in ‘70, still Bas(-ic) strong and well. Pete Ray is (incredible) straight. 30.00 min. Favorite song and Some more. Thnx for the video
Wow....the little bass break near the end of Heathrow...the strummed chords is stunning!! Seriously so good!!! What a band!!
What a start this morning, been watching this fantastic concert, perfect sound and pictures, couldn't do better my training in the gym for 60 minutes, thanks so much! I haven't been able to see the boys live on stage for ages
I literally saw them 4 days ago in Cancun. What a badass drummer.
that's the great Pete Ray Biggin!
@@leonardowelles5580 arbeitet der nicht auch für Kool & the Gang im deutschsprachigem Raum / EU ? Glaub, hab ihn bei denen in Leipzig gesehen.
Guter Mann !
@@alexanderbaars1690 ich weiss es nicht - finde dazu keine Hinweise im Internet. Pete Ray spielt schon seit 2010 bei Level 42
Literally?
Their drummer Pete Ray Biggin is a monster!
I noticed.
But can he play Bloodclock?
Brilliant show with the Legends Mark and Mike, plus a superb band. Once warmed up Mark completely rolled back those singing years, bravo too Mike.
Mark's brother, Nathan on guitar. Both are incredibly talented and very funny !
I don't think he gets the accolades he deserves, he's also an amazing bass player!! Just watch him on Andertons all about the Bass!
@ yes that’s where I saw him 😉👊🏻
I actually worked with Nathan around 40 years ago on his demos. Lovely (and talented) guy!
One of the first real music i bought listend 2 and loved soo much and still do✨Amsterdam the Netherland ✌️😎✨ps: thanks so much for sharing✨

Whole band is on fire, drummer is a beast, as you would expect to keep up with Mr King!
Who’s the drummer now ? Gary husband ?
Pete Ray Biggin

Thank you for this 🙏🏻
👍🏻 Saw them in Southampton in 2008 or thereabouts. A colleague introduced me to them in the early 1980s.
Wonderful show. My dream is to see one of their shows live.
😀
Mark is the best! His bass playing has a stand out quality which sets him above so many others
Yep:

Cut my music chops to Level 42 back in the 80s!! Great to still see them getting after it!!
42:12 I'm 54 Japanese guy． Lessons In Love is my ever green song．
Nice
Of course it's great to see them play all of their great songs, but will they ever record some new stuff? THAT would be awesome imo.
super recording ! tnx dude !!!
Love these guys!
My favorit band makes me remember when im colege was am young
Merci 👍👍 je vais le voir a l'opera de Monaco le 27/09 👀👀👍👍❤❤🖐🖐😎😎
Semplicemente Fantastici.Top 🌻🌻🌻
I always wondered what the bass and drums setting was on my electronics. Did I not hear their biggest tune? There's something about this.
What a great show 🎉!
At about the last note of the guitar solo the engineer managed to get it loud enough - 20 minutes - some could say guitar was loud from the stage but what about Mark King vocals ???
Best classic song by Level 42
Awesome, tnx 4 posting Christopher!
Did you cut out “Something about you” in between Starchild and Lessons in Love?
