A thousand of my favourite songs from the 90s. I am trying to stick to official vids but may add fanmade ones, definitely no stills,
Finley's album Maverick A Strike is a personal favourite.
So I’m not the only one looking at this in 2023
@@dixienormouse1441 nope lol pulled out hat great album this afternoon and got wondering..wow I had no idea
He played that riff for about 30 mins; a lot longer than the 2 mins shown. He's notorious in the industry now. Sad because he's talented but would never risk spending money to see him play. Always cancels last minute. He's finished.
(I know it's a long time ago) I thought it was going to develop into something 'eventually'.. Apparently not. >.
@@benjaminsavage4204his one good album was nearly 30 years ago. He's done
Finley looks like he has no idea where he is.
Finley Quaye was to play a gig in The Pavilion Cork City Ireland, he was so Coked out of it, he was getting into Fights with customers at the Club, appalling scenes....Hope he works out his Demons 🙌
LOL more " demons "
@@edkramer5592 Sounds like you have them in droves. Why don't you work on yours instead of just trolling the comments section on youtube videos
Everyone defending this guy is just sad.
I do agree with it not being the band's fault but god damn
You prawn for promoting him
I feel for the drummer & bassman - they are not just "session musicians" as quoted. They are well respected session musicians who have and do play with well known and well respected international artistes - who personally ask for them. The onus on this story is on the leader - Finlay Q who led this alleged sorry performance. As good musicians do, I can only guess that they followed his instruction. Watch them with other performers and judge them wisely then.
agreed.... the supporting band were all fine musicians hampered by a disastrous situation.... by far the worst gig i've ever worked..... and that includes the punk gigs I worked back in the 80's and 90's
dellasoulfood Yes Indeed. RIP Dredy Rockers (drummer) aka Carl Tomlinson. A great man and great musician/ producer who deserved better respect than this. 🙏🏿
What do you mean? How are they "not just session musicians"? A session musician is a session musician. Doesn't matter if they played with some nobody on the x factor or if they played with Dean Martin. All they have to do is keep their shit together. It's their only job! That, and deciding on who to play with, obviously. People shouldn't feel bad for musicians really.
THE MUSIC INDUSTRY IS BEAUTIFUL!
meaning
@@edkramer5592 Irony I think. Music IS beautiful. The music industry rather less so.
Hey dont blame the musicians its finley.
Totally get this guy's point, but he was too harsh on the band. Those guys don't get paid a lot and they put their entire lives into their work. The promoter feels bad he hired Finley, imagine how they must feel having to work with him..
'.....and they f**k my stage.' Missed that bit...
Did you see how they played in the beginning?
Not looking at the audience
No singing just playing like that
Imagine nothing but that for 30 minutes
He didn't turn up in Dublin either
Damn 😮
I used to live with Finley in Manchester many, many moons ago. He was a tricky & troubled person. Talented as well but I don't think he has ever worked his demons out.
He was a Tricky & Troubled Person's uncle, more like!!
er demons? wtff?
@@edkramer5592 it's a commonly used figure of speech for a persons deepest troubles, insecurities and fears.
@@edkramer5592 basically a drug or drink addict
@@paulsmartialarts I saw what you did there, you conjurer.
Hooray for Matt Roberts.
BOOOOOOOOOOO for Finley Quaye.
He was almost this bad when I saw him back in his prime. The single worst artist I've ever seen live.
Try Donovan - you know that Guy who sat on toadstools in the 60s. I saw him 4 years ago. The dullest live act ever !
Had they really been playing like that and not singing for 30 mins prior ?????
Yep
Was the performance as disjointed as the editing in this video?
Do you want me to smile?
Well, I'll try.
Saw him in the 90s, biggest load of crap ive ever seen and heard.
😂😅
"The music industry and live music is beautiful" - How drunk is this guy?
It's called having passion mate
Sm0g - He’s a renowned alcoholic; the promoter, that is.
A deeply embarrassing thing to say
Live music is still alive and well. But it only works if you have the heart, and he obviously has none.
There’s only his girlfriend in the crowd of ‘beautiful people’ 😂
Wow that presenter wouldn’t of liked the sixties much when there experimentations went so far silence was considered music or just tapping things and getting the audience to tap! He shouldn’t of sent him off, he can play whatever the fuck he wants it’s up to the people to leave when they want!
Facts
Newsflash. It's not the 60's anymore.
If you pay to see a performance you are well within your rights to expect a performance not a piss take jam session from an artist who is notoriously difficult to work with, was late and disrespectful. You want to jam? Fine. Do it in your own time, not in front of a paying crowd.
FQ never seen since? Now homeless outside Lidl?
Not the first artist to be an hour late, yet this guy felt he deserved to kick him off? Sounded great the 10 seconds, not much of a sound check needed by the sound of it. Could of easily let him play on. I would of been fuming if some randomer got on stage and ended the gig like that. I would of Boo'ed you straight off mate.
he wasn't an hour late, he was something like 6 hours late , Load in was due 2-3 pm, Sound check and video set up for live and broadcast was due 4-6pm, dinner at 7-8, show at 9 , FQ arrived , from memory, after 8 .... with no back line, no drum kit, and no clue..... Venue managed to get together the relevant items , get the stage set , and engineers managed to get a basic balance on FOH and broadcast , and he still kept the audience waiting over an hour ..... utterly refused to engage with them, kept wandering off stage for some :"special herbal tea" , then wandered around stage pointing the mic directly at the monitors, in some weird tripped out game of cat and mouse with the monitor engineer..... .. and yes, I was there.... and no my name is not Matt Roberts, but I applauded his handling of the excrement on stage,. whereas this lot were very good th-cam.com/video/wbJxWaE5NM0/w-d-xo.html&frags=pl%2Cwn , just to show that the venue was capable of better....
Back to the audience. Just acting as if he is having a jamming session. Finger to the customer really.
@@sm0g-810 CUSS TOMER? Jamming? sound check jamming? well kinda
Dom Rendell your post is idiotic .
It sounded like a half assed blues jam in A. If you thought that sounded great you have very low standards.
I thought that was rather uncalled for, what a rude cruel person to talk to poor old Finley like that, it’s shameful
Seriously? I hope you're taking the piss, if not you're probably on as many drugs as finley was that day.
He only played two songs on his dreadfull t in the park performance many years ago before the crowd started boing and throwing rubbish at him on stage 👎
Why was some of the sheep clapping? Why didn’t they leave if they wanted it stopped? Why was they waiting for someone to stop it? Everything about this shows how pathetic I’m guessing there all middle class and students are! People with no balls!
Butt hurt presenter. Emotional performance by him, overshadows the alleged ineptitude of the singer.
maTT ROBERTS = the joke promoter...
