Best live performance by the Pulse I ever seen. They strayed a while but back in 2015 I got to see them, expected nothing, and they played all the oldies and really well. This is on another level I wish reggae was still made with this kind of inspiration.
I was there on a beautiful day in August. The concerts at the Vondelpark were free. Was my first Reggae concert with many songs of Handsworth Revolution that was released in 1978.
Ik was pas 7, maar luisterde de platen van mama helemaal plat, en zij staat ook in het publiek... De liefde voor Reggae komt van mijn moeder, waar ik haar eeuwig dankbaar voor ben, wat een muzikale educatie ik heb gehad.... zou verplicht moeten worden... van jongs af aan luisteren naar echt GOEDE muziek.
I have seen these brothers live 4 times in Chicago starting in 1979. That they could perform so close to the album recordings means that these men played CONSTANTLY, nonstop, eery day and night. This is whats called a work ethic.
R.I.P. Grizzly! One of top drummers in Reggae! Handsworth Revolution, Tribute To The Martyrs and True Democracy albums are the definition of modern roots music.
@@lawrencenjawe1935 100%...I always say to Basil (founder & lead guitarist) I wish I was around in this era!!! Never get bored of watching them! Pure vibez ❤🖤💚
00:00 Uncle George 06:18 Harassment 11:00 Soldiers 14:32 Babylon makes the rules 19:41 Heart of stone 25:10 Sound System 28:42 Jah pickney 33:30 Caught you dancing
One of the best live performances I've ever heard, regardless of genre. Wish I coulda been there in the flesh, born at least 20 years too late, but the music endures
"Stepper" McQueen on bass left the group after the "True Democracy" album and moved out here in SoCal and joined a local short lived band called Mongoose. Sad to see him go.
I've seen Steel Pulse live and I've been to Vondel Park. Very cool setting for a cool band, would loved to have been there but I was 10 years old at the time and was more interested in the Incredible Hulk than reggae and european travel
My lovely yes you've tricked me My lovely you disowned me Music that you're dancing to The music that you're dancing to QUE FINAL PARA MAS BRUTAL DIOS MIOOOO,ESA ES LA BANDA QUE LE GUSTABA AL GRAN BOB MARLEY
I saw steel pulse at the Brixton academy in London with my brother Phill and he's mate Ian in 1982 85 with my brother Phill and he's mate Ian very good gig and a good night's outs nice one one love paulas long live steel pulse. Rasta
Ik was er jammer genoeg niet. Wel ze gezien in Edenhal Amsterdam vele jaren terug. 1 van de weinige survivers uit die tijd. David and bandmembers stay alive. Augustus op Reggaelake Amsterdam
Amazing how good they were able to sound outdoors. But didn't this set include "Prodigal Son"? I'm looking everywhere for a very particular live version. Love the way Grizzly finishes the percussion at the tail end of the bridge in that version, though it may not have been the one in this set. I thought it was part of this set marleyarkives.wordpress.com/2013/01/12/steel-pulse-live-at-ritz-theatre-nyc-august-13-1982-feat-al-anderson/?unapproved=102844&moderation-hash=facff63694ebf65a969809243ecfbf36#comment-102844 but apparently not. Very unique rendition, really miss hearing it
Stepper screwed up! He moved to California and played with a local short lived band called "Mongoose". I saw this Steel Pulse lineup in Chicago in '81". The best!
hellobiafra, have you found out the reason? I would like to know too, Stepper`s handwriting was so distinct and so exceptional,.oh gush, his basslines defined the Steel Pulse sound.

The original steel pulse. When reggae was real reggae.

It could also just be that they're simply excellent musicians.
@@salubriousit's because it's for the Luv of Jah🔥
Me too. The Quiet Knight and The Riviera. Moved to SoCal in "82" and lost count of how many times I've seen them. I still preferred the early "Pulse".
@@salubrious- They are excellent musicians for sure and the best I have seen live on stage.
Beyond cool & gifted. Steel Pulse, thank you for such beautifully woven music & lyrics!
I saw Steel Pulse with Herbie Hancock in the early 80s Steel Pulse smoked Herbie's band and I am a huge jazz fan
This is the original steel pulse, we want back our original steel pulse!!!

Ziggy Stardub rest in power grizzly
Who of us has the same energy they did in their youth? Musically or anything else? It changes..Appreciate the fact they are still doing it.
Perfectly well said my friend.. Bless!!
instaBlaster...
the period 1980-1985 was Steel Pulse at their very best !!!!!!!!!!! with this line up they were incredible
78-85
As of 1978 with Handsworth Revolution till about 1985.....and beyond!!
D'accord avec toi.
@@tubafats100 yesssssss
Not sure their new drummer is incredible
El Reggae me gustaba pero cuando descubrí a Steel Pulse empecé Amarlo.. Los mejores de toda la historia!🔥
❤love reggae music for all the nations and around the world 🌍 Jah Almighty
echt ik zat achter het hek maar hoorde alles top music thanks xx jeugd sentiment oprecht
I always loved the baselines and drummer. In fact this was one of the best lineups Steel Pulse has ever had.
One of the best? I'd say the BEST lineup....Bless!!!
@@lawrencenjawe1935 100%...I always say to Basil (founder & lead guitarist) I wish I was around in this era!!! Never get bored of watching them! Pure vibez ❤🖤💚
Yes, that's the best line up. I'm so very glad I got to see them many times during this period 80-84. Steve and Ronnie held down the RYTHM.
Youthful Steelpulse live, as good as ever.
Ik had dit concert op cassette opgenomen van de radio maar kwijtgeraakt. Gaaf dat het hier weer te zien is!
So nice to see that every year the songs can be changed and played differently. thanks for sharing

Ik was 16 jaar oud toen ik daar was. Na Bob Marley 1 van de beste live bands. En Steel Pulse was legendarisch in deze bezetting.
Hallo Freddy, ik was toen 17 jaar, Revelation Time..!!
ik heb dat net gemist,was iets te jong,maar 4 jaar later wel gezien in jaap eden hal...samen met aswad GEWELDIG
I've spotted you!
Again next Saturday in Amsterdam. Respect from Switzerland 🟢🟡🔴
One of the best live performances I've ever heard, regardless of genre. Wish I coulda been there in the flesh, born at least 20 years too late, but the music endures
My band for life
They're some my deepest inspirations on a few levels. The presence, the style, and the consciousness.
Original Steel Pulse. Again, wishing they would go back to this style or something similar at least
I was lucky to see them with this band lineup on their first Chicago concert in 1981. Saw them twice and this was the best "Steel Pulse".
steel pulse unas de las mejores bandas de reggae indicutible... imposible son unicos en ese rico son!
Te gek, daar ben ik ooit nog bij geweest.
Super om Steel Pulse in de originele bezetting te zien.
YESSSSSS! BIGUP YASELF STEEL PULSE! Thank you daddy for keeping me connected to the Culture 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
I love that UP AND DOWN HIGH STEPPING they do on stage. Miss that vocal mix of David Hinds and the other guy playing percussion.
Este es el auténtico Stell Pulse. Sin duda la mejor banda de música reggae en el mundó.
Respect to the great reggae drummer Steve Grizzly NesbittRIP.
La mejor banda de reggae del mundo 🔥🔥🔥
tijdloos live Amsterdams vondelpark geweldig ik was daar! was 15 jaar lang geleden! tanks.
"Stepper" McQueen on bass left the group after the "True Democracy" album and moved out here in SoCal and joined a local short lived band called Mongoose. Sad to see him go.
Lions: Knowledge ... Wisdom ... Resistance ... Freedom from ALL forms of shackles. Never let another person own you.
Stepper McQueen is sublime on "Caught you dancing to"....!!!!
Great performance from a great band. RIP Grizzly! Maximum Respect!
One of my favorite bands
I've seen Steel Pulse live and I've been to Vondel Park. Very cool setting for a cool band, would loved to have been there but I was 10 years old at the time and was more interested in the Incredible Hulk than reggae and european travel

This is a TV broadcast, so the likelihood is that they played for longer. At the end of the broadcast, it looks they weren’t finished.
😊 Classic Music

The Best Band In The Land
The reggea band that stayed together for forever

Wow! Wat een fantastische opname. Heb je het destijds van de televisie opgenomen of zoiets?
Lekker man en bedankt!
Mighty pulse! Stepper Damn its a shame he moved on.
Stepper screwed up! He moved to California and played with a local short lived band called "Mongoose". I saw this Steel Pulse lineup in Chicago in '81". The best!
I know he resides in Cali Laguna Beach. What do you mean by Stepper screwed up?
Robert Carvalho.
They were never the same without Stepper.
Sweetest basslines.
wonder why he left
hellobiafra, have you found out the reason? I would like to know too, Stepper`s handwriting was so distinct and so exceptional,.oh gush, his basslines defined the Steel Pulse sound.
shit shit wat een happy geluk bof konten zijn de lief hebbers die van hun genieten nooit gewetn dat ze daar waren hahaha greetzzzzz and happines

Brave and active in their own professional career
Love Steel Pulse
The PULSE was alive. Bless
Geweldig. Ik heb begrepen dat het nog gratis toegankelijk was ook?
In that time lot of reggae bands with name performed in the vondelpark,Amsterdam. But that period is long time ago behind. Unfortaly

George Jackson Prison Letters should be in the Smithsonian recognized as the best non fiction from the 20th century.
