This Heat (77 - 82) was an Experimental Rock trio between Charles Bullen (Guitar, and various other Instruments), Charles Hayward (Drums, Lead Vocals, and various other instruments) and the Late Gareth Williams (Bass, and various other instruments). This channel seeks to preserve their Studio and Live catalogue, - THA
This Is Not This Heat Live | Live at Cent Quatre, Paris | 15.3.2017
Fine quality bootleg. Amazing performances from all members, especially Hayward's Lead guitar continue to blow me away with the sonic landscapes; truly mesmerizing. That quick slide into Rimp Romp Ramp from Makeshift Swahili is absolutely killer. Please, enjoy this tape; even if it is not from the 80s, this is still a fantastic tape with an even greater setlist and sound, - THA

This Heat - Reference DEMO 1976/77
มุมมอง 7482 ปีที่แล้ว
Reference was a tape This Heat had recorded incredibly early on in their life, often thought to have originated from around the bands initial year in their rehearsing/recording space, dubbed 'The Cold Storage,' this tape is phenomenal and has the only known studio recordings of 'Rimp Romp Ramp',' 'The Rough & The Smooth' and the rather drousy 'Aerial Photography,' nonetheless, RRR is a wonderfu...
This Heat Live || At the screen on the Green, 01.26.1979

What an amazing performance; early 79 concert with a mid-range audio quality tape to boot. Honestly, despite its off quality, this tape is one of my favourite alone for the solid performances on Horizontal Hold, Triumph, and Makeshift Swahili. Oh, and that Triumph performance? You gotta hear it, - THA 26.01.1979: Live at The Screen on The Green, London UK 0:00 Testcard 2:32 Horizontal Hold 10:3...
This Heat Live || At The ICA Club 12.27.80

A unique setlist for, but a common one for their 1980 sets around this time. Early versions of Paper Hats and many other 'Deceit' era tracks are heard here; a pretty stellar sound for sure, very tense sound on Horizontal Hold and Paper Hats. I really enjoyed this bootleg. Hope you will too, - THA 12.27.80: Live at The ICA Club, London UK 0:00 Horizontal Hold 8:09 Paper Hats 14:05 SQPR 18:42 Mak...
This Heat Live || The Scala Cinema, 12.20.1979
มุมมอง 9773 ปีที่แล้ว
The Scala Cinema is a big venue, many seats but slim stage with a projector. Bullen did a lot of the tape working for this concert, and his handy work certainly shines through. The venue allows for heavy compression and loud acoustics; and you can hear it. I really enjoy this setlist, its a nice line of their Debut Self titled work and the new Deceit stuff. I particularly enjoy the performance ...
This Heat Live, Last Concert 1982 | S.P.Q.R Undocumented Release/Bootleg
มุมมอง 1.2K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Wonderful performance and conclusion. We hear a lot of what would become Camberwell Now, early drafts of Working Nights and Greenfingers sound terrific here. Charles Hayward at it again on the vocals, giving outstanding performances on Percussion. Bullen once again blowing it out of the park. Hill and Goronwy contributing their upmost for this conclusion. One of my favorite Bootlegs, hope you a...
How did you find this?
Faust and This Heat
Triumph is insane. And they didnt become as popular as PiL and Joy Division
Unlike pil and joy division.. They didn't stick with one or two ideas. They sometimes had a hundred ideas in one song. Which wouldve been a little bit hard for the average person to get there head around.. Amazing set of musicians
@@Wrestoktwellayes, exactly!
The venue was a (celebrated) arts cinema most of the time, but occasionally put on gigs by left-field bands (a few weeks after this performance, Throbbing Gristle played). The end of the concert was played with an out of focus horror film projected onto the band. Note that at this time, just after the release of their 'Health & Efficiency' single, there were not three, but four members.: Charles Hayward on drums; Gareth Williams on bass and keyboards; Charles Bullen on guitar; Peter Bullen on mixdesk, and tapes and effects. I suspect the recording is by his hand, too.
this is the first post-punk recording 😮
Pere Ubu - 30 Seconds Over Tokyo (1975) Brian Eno - Third Uncle (1974) Red Krayola - Dairymaids Lament (1968)
I wonder if This Heat ever met Joy Division.
Thanks for sharing this recording !
Thank you for listening! - THA
Aerial Photography is just so peaceful
This is the best recording of a This Heat concert I’ve ever heard. The performance is amazing too. Health and Efficiency and Makeshift Swahili sound top tier here
Happy to have provided! - THA
Love hearing these songs during their gestational period. I think this version of Not Waving might be my favorite. It basically predicted Radiohead’s sound lol
Thank you so much for this upload! This Heat are my favorite band and it’s so wild to hear them play live, especially during this era where Deceit had yet to be released. This version of Horizontal Hold is insane too
Ok so what exactly is The Rough With The Smooth? Every live performance seems to begin and end with the same recording as the version from the demo but the middle part is always different. Is that how they actually played it live? Like are they basically sampling themselves for half of the track?
Ah, yes. The Rough and The Smooth is an oddity. It is a track off of their first Demo around 78-ish I wanna say? Hayward and Co would frequently use live samples to perform the track. Like most of their early tunes, they would typically improvise and tweak stuff on stage that wasn’t put on tape yet. Apologies if this doesn’t help with anything, or answer any questions. I really couldn’t say. It’s a weird one. - THA
I think the song at 18:23 is actually an early version of Cenotaph
I’m gonna be honest, sounds closer to an earlier Health And Efficiency, but I do hear Cenotaph there. - THA
Yeah I think it’s very likely an early version of Health and Efficiency
Working Nights sounds nothing like the version from “The Ghost Trade”, maybe there are some similar ideas but it’s hard to say that it’s the same song. Green Fingers is really different too but rhythm and lyrics make it more recongizable
If I recall, the setlist would list the song they performed as ‘Working Nights,’ it’s entirely possible Hayward later reused the title for another completely different song. It is worth some digging into, however. - THA
still ahead
Even though it's not actually stated in the tracklist, is Diet of Worms being played after Makeshift Swahili, right before The Fall of Saigon? I just thought it sounded familiar.
Yes, I do think that is ‘Diet of Worms,’ I noticed that too but the bootleg didn’t have it in the track listing so I didn’t bother. - THA
that they never put out the studio version of "rimp romp ramp" really speaks to their selectiveness, supposedly it's an early version of "paper hats" but i still can't hear it, sounds totally original. thanks for this
That was always speculation, I don’t know where people got that idea from. Maybe I missed an interview or something, but I honestly think it was just a fan suggesting as to why RRR never got an official published recording and it just spread like that. Regardless, I agree. Especially when their first record is filled with soundscapes and ambient pieces, it makes you wonder why they skipped out on RRR. Maybe in their heads it was just a better live piece then in the studio.
I mean, there is a studio recording of it; the one on Made Available, which was recorded, mixed and edited in John Peel’s studio. The production on that is great. But as for why it never appeared on an album, I have no idea. It’s one of their best songs. Maybe they felt like they couldn’t top the rendition from the Peel sessions. Also I can fully believe it evolved into Paper Hats in some way. There are similarities between their structures and bass lines, although if Paper Hats did emerge from it those elements definitely mutated
really tuneful singing here
absolute mania, sublime
Really wish we got a good recording of The Rough with the Smooth
It’s such a wonderful little song. It has the immense aura of sadness to it
Incredible
Had no idea this existed
The sudden cut between Not Waving & Diet comes from the fact that you’d flip the cassette to its B-side at the end of Not Waving, causing it to be a very abrupt ending.
this is very cool. i’m new to this band and i am all for preserving their fantastic works. you’ve got a subscribe from me. godspeed.
Fantastic. You happen to have this bootleg for download?
I'll have one up by the later evening of today, thank you for the support; means a lot! - THA
