Taken from a cassette tape bought at London Record fair in the '80's, KZEW broadcast, fades in and out a bit, fragmentary but of historical value to fans. If anyone has a soundboard quality tape of this gig then please upload.

taken from an old vhs tape made of the BBC programme shown later that year, please excuse the usual vhs tape deterioration affecting picture and sound in some places. enjoy.
Can U believe Willie Thorn was 28
My son is 25...Willie looked 50 minimum
Since when did they have women commenters in 1982 overdubbed shit it wouldn’t be so bad if they actually knew what they were commentating on
That was Vera Selby who was the current womens world champion at the time, also was the women's world billiards champion. She died in march last year at the age of 93 so a little respect is due don't you think ?
The Eighties was a great era of Snooker. So many great players to watch. My favourite players of that era were Alex Higgins, Jimmy White, Kirk Stevens and Willie Thorne, really exciting and attacking players who gave me so much enjoyment. Thanks for this upload.
White is the most natural snooker player of all-time
Beautiful
Wonderful Thanks man
Reardon sat smoking his fag like a a real tart. Loving it up so funny. Probably sponsored by embassy fags at the time ? Good player to . Can Learn a lot from watching these old players cueing stance etc to fast now!
If a young Jimmy White was playing like that nowadays the majority of young people wouldn't be interested in or talking about Ronnie O'Sullivan.
This is still the biggest upset in history of the world championship at the crucible. Strange that Davis was so off in this match! I wonder why he was so bad in this match. He made up for it in the rest of the 80s though didn't he?
Probably the most shocking result in snooker history
I loved Fred David too.
Yes !! Steve Davis was always my favourite. They didn't come better than him.
Wtf happened
Reardon was a cool dude
Without doubt if Jimmy White had beat Alex Higgins in semi final1982 he would of won final,,That sitter of a black Jimmy missed a rookie player would of got,,Jimmy claimed he rushed it,,well,he seen winning line,,Jimmy has to be ultimate unlucky loser of final in world championship,,was it runner up 5 times???amazing,,times he only needed that one frame having such leads,,I'll rest there, j8m,cvw
A Reardon, White final would have been very interesting. Reardon would probably have to have been somewhere near his very best to win but im sure his tactical game could have got to Jimmy
6 times runner was jimmy
Davis was sick for that match but Barry Hearn insisted he play of course.
1:05:47 I don't think snooker technique can get any better than this.
This must have been the best time of the hurricanes life then it all went to shit after.
The standard was so poor compared to modern players.
And? You expect a guy from the 80’s to be a fast as Usain Bolt? The clothes were thicker and there were a lot less professionals then. All sports evolve.
How on earth did Jimmy miss that red with the rest
This video is a treasure. Thanks.
As a huge snooker fan fo 50 years…1982 will always have a special place in my heart.
Wish so many more early shows like this were recorded and filmed.
First saw the band in 1975. Again many more times. He’s so great!!!
5:19 6:50 9:45 11:45 13:33 19:00 30:00 55:48
Very cool. He was born in november of 1954 so maybe he was just 19 years old when this was recorded.
Steady Eddie the comb-over king!
Alex higgings potted every ball like is life depended on it, wow wow wow
STEVE DAVIS THE GREATEST SNOOKER PLAYER ON PLANET EARTH IS DISIPLINE WAS EXCELLENT
Great tracks! If you have a spare copy for selling I'd be interested. Rockin regards
Sorry I don't, only have one copy left now.
@@vmax4steve524 Any idea how to get one? Would be great!
@@dschangodurango7596 Sorry but no, you can download this as an MP3 file, that's the best I can offer you.
@@vmax4steve524 Thanks for the offer, but nothing's comparable to a spinning n crackling vinyl ;-)
hi ,i was the double bassist for the prairie dogs,i still have some copys left ,i kept a few to see if they increased in value,be happy to sell u one
its not just a video but gem in #TH-cam... thanks a lot for uploading sir !
Worked there in 1972!
I find it interesting that they used mismatched rests in a semi-final of a world championship. In the Reardon-Charlton match, Charlton eyes up the rest at 56:29. You'll notice that it has one of those cheap, white plastic rest heads. However, about six minutes later in the same frame, Reardon uses the rest from the other end of the table (102:23) and you'll notice that it's a proper brass rest with the black plastic feet. You'd expect something like that on a club table, but not at the Crucible! Kinda strange. Great video though. Thanks for the upload.
The plastic headed rest was Charlton's own, he prefered them so took his own to tournaments.
@@vmax4steve524 Great info
Steve Davis came back from the shock first round loss to dominate the rest of the decade. Won/Won/ R-Up/R-Up/Won/Won/Won
Alex in the wrong seat at the semi.
Fred Davis...as if!
These days the crowd wouldn’t be allowed to ramble on while a game was in progress on the other side.
Who the hell is the female over dub who wasn’t privy at the time in 1982,,,!,,,, It’s not good enough,,,/ Pc bollocks as ever in today’s society
That's Dreary Vera I remember my Dad named her that.
Vera Selby. She was women's world champion at the time
@@chrishearfield234 I'd totally forgotten how she cropped up. I see shes only just passed away in March @ 93.
@@chrishearfield234 Who was Vera (the announcer? ) and why did she get called dreary?
Vers Selby was great. She recognised talent when she saw it.
"... This may be the break of the tournament" Wrong. It ended up being the break of a lifetime.
Wrong. It was the greatest break of all-time.
Gutting to see Alex in later years....My fav...
Great upload. I enjoyed the music. You might want to pop the file into Audacity and slow it down a little bit. The voices of the KZEW DJ sounded a bit too high pitched to me. I lived in the Dallas area during this time frame and I don't recall any of the DJ's sounding like they did on this. Not your fault, the original cassette was probably running a bit too slow and now with more modern playback it just sounds a bit high pitched. Thanks again, I wish I had been there that night. I went there mostly during the 1972-1973 time frame. Great nightclub!
Thanks for the heads up James, just downloaded and will give it a go.
It doesn’t get much better than Higgins v White. Incredible
They don't make Commentators like Ted Lowe anymore in an era which the BBC in all sports were superb.
@SavageArfad Ted Lowe was known as the "Voice of Snooker" which says it all.
Indeed though i equally admired 'apprentice' Clive - both of them had unique nuancing in the voice that cannot be repeated.
Sound is fine for me and synced fine? I was looking for the issue to hear it but for me everythings great, good upload mate. I wonder if the guy saying the sound is not synced realises that there is a game next door to this going on and he is hearing those people hit balls and not this match lol I dunno, you take 8 hours to upload something and we take 8 seconds to try and find something wrong with it. Thanks mate, enjoyed it a lot.
The audio isn’t synced, unfortunately. Please could you fix and re-upload?
This was copied from a vhs tape to dvd and then ripped to my pc, transfered the dvd file using Nero 2017 to a formatt acceptable to youtube and then uploaded. It took nearly eight hours to upload, why the audio isn't synced I don't know because the file on my pc is fine. If I knew why then I would fix it and re-upload, but I'm not that computer savvy I'm afraid.
Vmax4steve That’s a shame. You’re not the only one who’s had this problem. It’s quite well known on the internet, it seems. What did you use to do the upload?
@@pondermatic I didn't use any programme in particular, simply selected the file and clicked the youtube upload button. It is quite common on youtube, yes, I've watched several videos that have this problem, usually the longer ones, it seems to get progressively worse the longer the video is. I'm not using high speed fibre optical cable broadband, maybe that's the problem.
Vmax4steve I wonder if it’s the file format.
@@vmax4steve524 Anyone can download videos from TH-cam and then use one of the many video file player tools to align the audio for playback - if I can do it - then anyone can.
Reardon enjoying a twilight to his career in this final having been so dominant in the 70s. Steve Davies was to dominate the majority of the 80s. What a talent Higgins was and 2 world titles to his name was to be proud of and perhaps would have won more had he not has his troubles off the table. Hell of a player and entertainer.
@David Robinson try to ignore the stick you get, stay with what you believe, criticism goes with the territory. I'm with you if that's any consolation. Alex was a snooker genius, brilliant, showy and controversial, because of his temperament, but it can't be denied, that was all a part of the amazing package that was Alex Higgins and it won him two world Titles.
@David Robinson You'd be right, yes. I was born 23rd December 1969, the last week of the sixties and the year of the moon-landing. The 70s for me were fine, nice memories, but the 80s were horrible for me personally, a horrible childhood and bad memories, and it's only now that I've been able to enjoy the great music and movies and everything else from the extraordinary era now that times for me are much better. Nice to know another 1969er! Gerard Butler was also born that year by the way, (huge fan, Angel Has Fallen, Geostorm) a month earlier than me.
Welcome back! The early 1970s were ugly and angry in my house and I didn’t want to experience ANY of the media from that time for a long time.
Reardon was quite an attacking player in his time. He faded very quickly after 1982.
Eyesight problems had to start wearing specs from around 85
He was still ranked 6 at the start of the 85/6 season. thats when it all fell apart for him. His marriage collapsed and as said here his eye problems started. He hardly won a game in the 85/6 season
@@dlamiss By '84 he was a shadow of his former self. It's always sad to see a great player decline, he gave us some great entertainment in his day.
@@rayjacques8850 Still got to the semi final of the 1985 world championship though including beating Parrott in the last 8 but yes maybe the decline started in the 84/5 season and seriously escalated a year later
Reardon is the most complete snooker player of all-time. He's the only player who has EVERYTHING.
Thanks for the amazing upload!
Griffiths knew exactly what he was doing so as to miss the blue... that's why we have the miss rule now...too many players taking advantage back then... the miss rule needs modifying now .... 3 or 4 consecutive misses should result in ball in hand...that'll teach them
Wow!
