One of the first bands I heard in my life, in 1985 my cousin brought some records to listen to and I was ecstatic when I heard Legal Tender and Private Idaho

[@trinaq]

The opening always gives me chills, I used to listen to Roam and Love Shack on a loop.

[@rhymeandreasoning]

Decades later I just NOW clued in that Fred has no main vocals on this particular track. Nice to see a band that is not uptight/ rigid about who gets lead vocals on their songs.

[@10mortax]

Wow haven't heard this song in ages.

[@zemunusrcu3805]

Great video quality

[@Berrfer]

Respect 🙌❤️

[@rodrigogoncalves5140]

Grande performance ao vivo

[@fabricioalves5195]

É playback, não é ao vivo

[@edicionesinnova4793]

I see comments about the lip sync, but take in account that all these shows (al least in that time) demanded the band to make lip sync/playback.

[@robhws]

Shame it's not an actual live performance.

[@jamesconnolly1201]

I used to play the 💩💩💩 out of "Cosmic Thing" and
The First Album. I WAS IN ❤❤❤❤ WITH CINDY.
Kate Pierson Sang More Though....

[@JimLeonard]

Shame this is a lipsync. But still nice to see a proper 50p conversion of the 25i source material.

Let's Retain Our Cool....😂
