This is from when a music TV show could change your life.
It changed mine when it was originally shown
Absolutely, I still remember how blown away I was when this aired!
me too@@metalfuryskulls
It changed mine at the time.
Did me. This, the C90 copy of 'Ten' I got given, the soundtrack to the 'Singles' movie and a healthy diet of MTV US Top 20. But mostly this. This came first.
This programme changed my life.
What a great nostalgia trip. I still have this whole episode on a vhs somewhere at home
Hehe I got it too somewhere on Hi8.
I stole this on VHS from a girlfriend
Snap
Mark Lanegan what a voice
This programme shaped my musical youth.
I recorded this on vhs when it aired for the first time. Such good times
Not only did I record it onto vhs, I then connected a cassette recorder up to the tv audio output so I could copy it onto a tape to play on my walkman!
Same
@@davidfear8411think i did that for the "unplugged" albums. Awful quality but being younger it wasnt an issue
A perfect programme capturing a genre at its peak. What performances!
I watched this when it was aired 23 years ago.
No Nirvana it sounds perfect to name a band,but for sure a few Nirvana covers would rock anytime,I do many Nirvana covers with my electric guitar,it rocks...
I thought I was the only one.
Me too dude, aged 15... Remember it all like it was fkn yesterday, crazy! So good
still have it on vhs somewhere lol
Me too
every time i buy new chorus or phaser pedal i think im still subconsciously trying to get Billy's clean guitar sound from this performance. So shimmery! So nice!
I think that was the guitar that was stolen from him after they played a show a few years later. He eventually got it back but he said he could never find the same tone from any other guitar. There's actually a TH-cam video of him talking about how it was stolen and how he got it back.
@@FlameFlickers i’m pretty sure it’s another guitar
@@alexmalch Nope, same one I think. Just most of the hand paint job that Billy applied had been removed when he got it back.
@@FlameFlickers no it’s a different guitar. he had two painted guitars a red-blue one and a yellow one. the red-blue one is shown in the video.
@@alexmalch Aha didn't know he'd hand painted two of them. Fair enough, I bow to your superior knowledge. But seeing as this is the TH-cam comments section, I feel like I should call you a prick or something..!
I remember taping this on VHS in early 1993 great to see it again some really good tracks. Saw Jane's Addiction about 3 times 1989 to 1991 and Donnelly in Throwing Muses same era at Newcastle Riverside for about 3 quid a ticket. Great times !
❤😁🇬🇧 my DVD copy wore out. Thanks.
Seriously i thought this was gone 'cos of the capricious ways of our state broadcasting apparatus. The BBC. THANK YOU so much. It lives!❤ 😁😁😁🇬🇧❤🥳. Did i say thankyou enough. ❤
My first live concert was RATM at the Royal Court in Liverpool supported by Tool and a band called Wool. My friend who bought the tickets had this on VHS and we watched it continuously, that gig was certainly a baptism of fire for me, never experienced anything like it before or after, the only thing that ran it close was Pantera at the same venue!!!
I was there; that was a brilliant gig. Never left me.
@@revolutionaryspirit6115 I'm so glad I grew up in a time with no smartphones, but part of me wishes there was some footage from that gig! Would be amazing to look back on!
See, with the missing RATM footage...they were the one band that meant business! I love most of these bands. But Rage was hardcore!
I swear the Screaming trees look like lumberjacks plus they got the longest hair I’ve ever seen on a band! Wow!
I had this on videotape ❤️❤️
Love that 'Where You Been' Dinosaur Jr. backdrop.
Tanya Donnelly. ❤️😍
This show as pretty much ground zero for the the last 30+ years of musical curiosity.
I would love to see the RATM footage from this show. I had it on VHS and RATM and Jane's Addiction were my favourite acts, but RATM really blew everyone away.
Hiding in plain sight all this time th-cam.com/video/ZmgNZHCoPWI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Ebs5jDI4udumPuZK
I'm sure there was RATM playing Bullet in the Head too :(
There was. It was a great version, too - uncensored (naturally, because it's the BBC).
Earlier that year of 1993 Bruno Brookes was nearly fired from his position as presenter of the BBC RADIO 1 Top 40 countdown show after he had played an uncensored version of "Killing in the name of" by accident which contained the infamous explicit outro that goes...well you know!
Yes, there was and this changed my musical life. I'm certain I still have this on VHS back in Ireland...going to fly back and find it :)
My Google-fu is strong today: bit.ly/2eIgY51
You're welcome. :)
@@hux2000 thank you so much :-D
Absolute classic !
There is nothing better than a Rage song being cut and replaced by a Pumpkins song!
You got a Bullet with butterflies in yer head !
As with many of us in the comments, this program was life changing for me. The first time I saw smashing pumpkins and rage against the machine.
I remember that program a lot, sometimes I would go to the house of a friend who had cable since he had that channel and the program ... great
The day TV caught up with something that was massive for people - but in a timely manner for a change!
Not a single bad performance. Classic.
Cannot believe it's almost 30 years since I watched this. I'm still taken in by the haircuts - Screaming Trees' tangled mess to the drummer in Sugar who looked about 20 years too old for this youth show, and Billy Corgan and Michael Stipe with hair, Billy going full King Charles Spaniel.
I bought a few CDs off the back of this, but I'm glad I stayed true and never got into Pearl Jam.
Janes Addiction. This show was captivating then and now.
Still got this on vhs
Snap.. 😁👍
From back in the days when MTV actually played music (yes, I know this was from BBC2!) and seeing one of your favourite bands on TV was such a rare treat.
And, if you were lucky enough to know in advance they'd be on, you'd record it on VHS.
And, if you wanted to work out a song on guitar, you had to put the time into trying to figure it out as opposed to just clicking on a TH-cam video!
People listened to albums as opposed to playlists. And you could usually tell pretty quickly from looking at one of your peers what sort of music, if any, they were into. Nowadays, they all seem to look pretty much like they were mass produced on the same blandly inoffensive assembly line! Damn, I'm getting old!!
What a wonderful compilation!
I agree with your choice of edits.
wow this was all from 1 show? neat.
I'm remember watching this the same night
I recorded this on vhs at the time. Pretty much wore it out before I lost it
The definition of iconic.
What genius did the title sequence? Probably closer to the mark than they realised with the Jane's one tho, roflz.
Thanks for the upload
Still an absolute joy
REM is definitely not grunge 😂 but they are still amazing and iconic nevertheless.
they were best buds with Cobain and then released Monster....
RATM, by most of the former and current band members, have all stated they were a hardcore punk band and followed punk's ethos, anti-consumerist, anti-commercialism, left-wing aegis, concept of music writing and musicianship. Zach de la Rocha was even the lead singer in a L.A. hard-core punk band in the late 80's meeting Tom Morello and forming the core of RATM.
Strangely enough, when Metallica first burst upon the L.A. music scene in the early 80's when excessive, glam metal was booming, their loud, fast, aggressive, thrashing sound was considered by many L.A. promoters, club owners, other rival bands as being "too punk". L.A. wasnt ready for Metallica then, and thats why they moved to S.F. in mid-80's. If one listens to some of Metallica's early demo songs, recordings and Kill Em' All and Ride the Lightning, their pace, overall sound, fast, aggressive time-signatures which were considered a bit radical and advanced then, they came across like an American Motorhead.
@@davidroberts7282 thanks
FUCKING LOVE THIS !!!
Year zero for me. TV don't make it like this anymore! Plenty of good stuff around now, just need the channels!
I have this on video somewhere, probably wore the tape out at the time. Great thing to share but why chop the absolute best bit where Rhinoceros kicks in? RATM was good on this too as was the Pearl Jam song - Sonic Youth and Sugar wouldn't have made my cut. Sonic Youth are amazing but not this performance. I don't actually believe that anyone really liked Sugar even then, but a few journalists at the then NME.
I liked them a lot. But they sound very tinny now.
don't believe anyone liked Sugar? I barely even listen to guitar music anymore but Copper Blue and Beaster still get spins!
Sugar win if its battle of the bands.
Jane’s Addiction for me 😊
Rage have been cut though.
Shame the only version that's around is the one with the half length Rhinoceros song. I have the full length one on VHS somewher - if it's a copyright issue, just cut Sugar and JA, nobody would care.

Stunner
Here's the Pearl Jam missing from this: th-cam.com/video/0unH11yjklE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=omvrH_Him0aAhZVg (Don't forget, this show is a compilation of previous clips so Kirsty Wark originally introduced PJ.
REM.... amazing
GOLD
I have this on VHS, I just watched it but there are some 'glitchy' bits. Pearl Jam playing Alive and Rage Against The Machine playing Bullet in the Head are on my recording. Pearl Jam and RATM are missing from this version I see. Was it a copyright strike?
Yes correct, for copyright reasons the programme is edited unfortunately.
Is theyre a full version of this anyplace?
Yes, in my VCR... But I wonder if there will be a copyright strike if I digitise and upload? Plus, my copy is a bit dirty and glitches out a few times.
Better than nothing!
Billy :-)
Rage Against The Machine's "Bullet In The Head" was by far the best performance on the show so bit of a shame that it's been edited out.
Thanks I clicked on this looking for that, I thought I was having a false memory.
Was a bit of a game changer when they rocked up. Why is it not on here? Is it anywhere else?
Think this is it , not seen this since way back, WOW ! th-cam.com/video/i6dcdBTGyO0/w-d-xo.html
@@rockstonemedia found it, they were the standout to me too. Still remember they stole the show!

Hey!! RATM!!
RATM are missing from this
I think the bbc have edited out all the black artists as bbc means something rude? And they are confused, like Jimmy savile and Jill dando.
Janes 🙂
wtf I only came here for RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE 😮 so disappointed
Where did Pearl Jam and RATM go to?
Not true, I'm afraid. I have this on VHS and have the full performance of Bullet in the Head. Pearl Jam have also been edited out of this video.
yes, sadly, its true .. this is the censored version ! lol ..
Phil W most likely cut out due to copyright...the uncensored version of the music video for Bullet in the Head is on the 1997 RATM VHS.
Corporate America
Wait, where the fuck is Rage?
Gail Greenwood please marry me
Why is Pearl Jam cut out of this?
copyright most likely
and rage against the machine
Where’s Rage Against The Machine???

Why does it say no nirvana?
if my memory serves right Nirvana was supposed to be on the show but cancelled, and Nirvana was so massive they then called the show No Nirvana
My memory was that Nirvana was SO massive at that time, that they based the whole premise on showcasing other bands and not them 😅
@@Katy-sh3ru Yes, this was what I understand. I actually thought the show was called: "No Nirvana, never mind".
@astronomenov99 I don't recall the nevermind bit, but would be funny 😊
WTF is going on wif billy corgan here?
Hit me
The Sugar song sounds like shit compared to the studio version.
