I saw this live on TV that day. KJ was very rare to see that days and i was so glad to see this when i was19 . Today i'm still a fan an visited a concert years ago in munich.🤘🎸One of my most favourite bands!!!
I saw them a few times 1980-82 - as i thought their first 2 lps & 'turn to red' , 'nervous system ' , 'change ', 'pssyche' were great & i think the best post-punk live performers at the time. I didn't see them again until early 2012 ( because they had the 4 original members) & I was surprised at how good they were ...
He just realized he loves us way too much! When you have to drive 10 hours to the next gas station, you too will be glad of the homogeneity when the next meal becomes predictable.
I've loved KJs music since the 80s. Had I seen this interview then, I wouldn't have. I really hope Jaz doesn't still feel this way. He is a brilliant musician and lyricist, but he seems to forget that without our men shedding blood on THEIR land, Europe would look very different today. We may be redundant, but don't ever doubt our feilty to the European people.
Watching them at Rockpalast 85, who could blame him. It was an amazing show and the crowd wouldn't even clap. I don't think they were alive. It's like WTF? Why were they even watching? I'd would give up a testicle to see KJ live. Not really but you get the point.
Are you even capable of understanding the chaos the US has brought on other countries? Hell, Obama bombed Syria until they ran out of bombs. We invaded Iraq over "Weapons of Mass Destruction" that we've YET to find, Killed Saddam Hussein, Killed Gaddafi FOR NOTHING! A lot of US bloodshed has been a self inflicted wound, make no mistake about it! Jaz loves the American People, but Hates the country. You might not think he's right, I think he's 100% right!
People can change their minds as they age; nothing wrong with that; nor is there anything wrong with playing for fans wherever they may be irrespective of one's original feelings, which as I said can change as you get older. We can't be angry young men all the time!
A question.....Does anybody know if Jaz Coleman did an lp based on the music of Led Zeppelin? , I know he did a 'music from 'The Doors ' & recorded some interesting records with Anne Dudley during the '90s & some Ambient / Eno / Philip Glass style stuff No-one I know has heard of a 'Jaz - Led Zep ' record , so I could be wrong ... Thank You
When your records don't sell ('Brighter than a thousand suns') or don't sell & aren't any good ('Outside the Gate') it's somebody else's fault..... But they did eventually 'comeback' - 'Absolute Dissent' , '2012' ....
Er..should be ..' MMX11' (not '2012' - I couldn't remember the Roman numerals !! ).. Have they done any other really good records from the '90s to present time ? As I've only really heard 'Pandemonium' ( thought it was 'ok') , 'K Joke 2005'(didn't like it), 'Pylon' (not bad) & a few 'nu-metal' type tracks somewhere ( f*****g dreadful ). Thanks .
@@fredharvey2720 Yep. He didn't translate the comment, either. It looks like Alan Bangs, whom you can see here on TH-cam introducing The Police and a load of other bands on "Rockpalast".
What did Jaz mean by saying that Germany is an occupied country? In 1988, Germany had not yet been reunified. There was a cold war, we were on the brink of the Third World War. There was West Germany, part of NATO, which was controlled and protected by the allied western powers USA, Great Britain and France, and there was a communist East Germany, part of the Warsaw pact, which was occupied by the Soviets. So what was the point of Jaz? Without the protection of the US, there might not have been a free Europe because Europe was divided into two blocs.

The year after this they played in US lol! Just checked their tour history. 14th April 89 LA.
"I don't want their money", he quickly changed his mind
@@carljules3123 He didn't change it too quick. He's scheduled and cancelled so many US gigs it isn't funny.
They're still playing the US.
@@fredharvey2720 Cancelled a show in Dayton Ohio out of the blue due to "illness".

Still the best now..gazz the gatherer!...
Jaz plays kaliyuga...from the brilliant extremities album...definitely the most relaxing track on it ...joyous 👌columbiagatherergazz!
What a catharsis it is to watch him play! I tend to grimace like this whenever I listen to Killing Joke. Delightful!
what an awesome piece!!
you've clearly looked into this, good show
Thanks for this!
Sounds to me like an early version of 'Kaliyuga' which later was on Extremities, Dirt & Various Repressed Emotions.
figurehead1971 That album was Killing Joke's best album as far as Iam concerned!
Geez... what changed? I guess Jaz needed the money

@@froggy556 And Trump out-droned him.
But did you notice jaz had alcohol… in the glass he possessed . Music is Music … forget about the interviews
Jaz had a huge ego problem at this time. As a result Big Paul Ferguson and Paul Raven were disgusted with him and had left at this point.
People can change their minds as they age; nothing wrong with that; nor is there anything wrong with playing for fans wherever they may be irrespective of one's original feelings, which as I said can change as you get older. We can't be angry young men all the time!
They played the States 10 months after this lol!
And he was getting vaccinated last I heard too.

Yes! with London Philharmonic Orchestra called Kashmir: The Symphonic Music of Led Zeppelin.
Sounds to me like Jaz Coleman is an international vagrant! A journeyman without a home in this world!
I like this Sylvester Stallone hairdo
Press those switches Jaz!
Fuck me this man is spot on.. 4 decades later the same thing is going on

Most intelligent mucician ever
before Money became Jaz's & kj God.
Jaz was anti-NWO.
His occupied Germany comment is interesting and the German host IMMEDIATELY changed the subject.

As a European? Only 3/4 European, buddy.
