Graham Maby; what a fabulous bass guitarist 👏🏻
He is amazing!!!
MOUTH WATERING bass
Yes !!
Graham Maby has got to be one of the [most] underrated bassists of all time
Tight, sophisticated and showing some of the best musicianship of the time.
Totally.
Graham Maby rules... Superb...
Mr. Joe Jackson is the man...
I remember hearing this in my bedroom in Manchester on the John Peel Show (hero of the radio), and I've been a big JJ fan ever since.
That Bass though...
Top flight musicians. Punk Rock energy with feel.
the band was bloody brilliant! there were so many great bands out at the time it's difficult to say which is my favourite.
I saw them at Leeds Uni late on in 1979. They were incredible. So, so tight. Saw them a few times after ( and Joe seperately) last time at the Marquee in Islington in 2002 , i think. That was an amazing gig too ! Maby was the lead instrument : )
IMHO, this was the best incarnation of the Joe Jackson Band - energy, power, groove, simplicity. Fabulous.
!!!
He had the punk drive and edge on his first album...great artist.
Not a big fan of his -- but THIS! Revelation.
Ya wish he’d continued the punk on later albums
@@madophelia4322 yep that was what made me notice him back in 78.. 79..I'm the man..great track!
1st singles & albums❤😊
Look Sharp, one of the best albums of the decade. Wall to wall hits. Sharon Reesburg said he was a dick at the Stone Pony but they did kill it that night if only for a few people.
I'm not saying he was, or he wasn't, but being a dick doesn't preclude him from making great music.
I remember this, it was broadcast on my 17th birthday.
...love the sound of that tom drum in the first track!
Thanks for uploading this session. WOW! forgot how amazing these songs are. The playing is first class and as tight as a camels arse in a sand storm. Atomic Power Pop. The music that came out of the late 70s and early 80s is so real and unique sounding unlike todays bands who sound good only by using studio trickery.
Early New Wave at its best.
LOVED the "Look Sharp" album when it came out... as I do now.
It's a classic, every single track a killer. Though I'm the Man, obviously from I'm the Man 😂
I'm the Man.......one of the best songs ever
Thanks for the upload. Listening to JJ for 40 years now. Always great music.
WOW!!!!!
Great. Stuff
Wonderful....so many memories.....thanks for posting
So gooooooood !
great session
Hey thanks Vibracobra!
love it
still remember only time I've seen him 1979 age 14 me & my mate only two punks there lol he was brilliant.
New Wave Embraced A " Plethora Of " Unconventional Artists " At The Time But There " Overwhelming Brilliance " Was Recognised By " Both The " Conventional And Unconventional Record Buying Public During This " Monumental Musical Epoch " !!! From Adrian Browne 1965
Yeah!!!
This was great thanks for uploading this haven't heard this in awhile I have the CD somewhere
cool...
only seen live once age 14 (my 2nd year into punk me & my mate only two punks there Lol) 1979 Hemel Hempstead (near London) he was Brilliant still love all his early stuff.
Totally agree...the best era. Not too into the jumpin' jive bs. They sure smoked here, tho. Im a sucker for Steppin Out but nothing matches 79 era Joe Jax. One More Time is the best.
First class power pop!
Most of the younger generation has never heard of JJ. The only song I ever hear on the radio is Steppin' Out" which isn't representative of his early stuff. When I play his early stuff, most wonder why is he so unknown today.
if you are saying that Stepping Out isn't as good as his "early stuff" you won't have much company ; and he has a bigger range of styles than just about any other musician.
@@racketman2u bang on dude. I mean, this Peel session absolutely shows that.
I think Steppin Out is a great song, nothing like the early days, but it's a good tune considering it's his "hit" and was after some forgettable moments following the Look Sharp days. He went in some places I wasn't into in between, so I'm sticking up for the hit. Opening track being so great set the bat fr a classic album.
Great shoes, Joe. Sharp (sharp)
Fools in Love definitely has a Watching the Detectives feel but they were both riffing off of reaggae beats so it doesn’t really matter….. it’s all about execution anyway
Steely Dan punks 🤘
3. Fools In Love (5:57)
So fucking dope.
Trk 3 Joe's take on an Elvis C tune?
Track #3 Is not a Elvis Costello Song? Even though it sounds like one? I always wanted to see Elvis Costello & Joe Jackson perform Live In Concert Together!
Nope.
One More Time smokes anything Elvis C. attempted. He was no nick Lowe.
This rules.
@@stevehastings5161 not hearing it. Assuming he wrote this still unnamed song, which one? The "reggae reggae" ish one? Did he invent ragga [sic], too?? ;)
I can see where you're coming from - there's quite a bit in there that sounds like it's lifted from Watching the Detectives.
is she really going out with him?
I thought that about two friends going out with each other. I always that I was a better catch than him.
lol punk-jazz
After this, yeah...this is pretty straight forward stuff. Especially this session...more raw and loose than the lp, even. Lolz!
Chicken in my head?
Love the tune, but the vocals are all over the place. Very pitch. Excellent live, esp beat crazy tour.
Huh? Ive never complained about such trivial music nerd stuff after such a killer live performance. This, imo, is the JJ apex...band was able to "dumb it down" and let loose some top shelf punk/power pop. It didn't last...sometimes less really is more.
You're mad. This is crystal clear music.
