59:30 Oh hey it's future Cure member Perry Bamonte making a brief cameo six years before being full time :)
Robert was at his visual physical "best" during this time. He looked great, hair is perfect, makeup, overall look is "The Cure" at its most iconic.
I think you could say that about The Cure anytime 1983-1989 really. Lovecats to Lovesong was the iconic time. I was incredibly privileged to see them on the Prayer Tour.
Ahhh yes! To be 22, again!
Yeah, he was in his prime then. Now he looks like his Grandma. The lipstick looks silly now.
Yeah, he was in his prime then. Now he looks like his Grandma. The lipstick looks silly now.
@@dynjarren8355 I mean, we all can't stop time. He doesn't have to change his style just because he is old now. He will always be iconic.
So powerful that made me feel that I was there in the audience, dancing.
This was the peak of their power. Robert's voice is pristine.
Love the video, but disagree. I miss Simon Gallup on bass and the drummer is - don’t know how to put it - too good. He has groove,but that doesn’t work well with most of the songs. I prefer Tolhurst’s reduced and mechanical playing to that kind of music.
Charlotte as on the live record released the same year is played too fast.❤
@@dirkpehrke990921:47 q😊q😊😊
@@dirkpehrke9909Agreed. The ‘80-‘82 period was it’s own distinctive thing. Like a completely different band, really. The music from that period just doesn’t sound right to me played by any other lineup, and it has very little to do with how ‘good’ or how talented the musicians are. It has everything to do with the personalities that went into making the original recordings, and what they brought to the music with their individual styles.
Before ' The Cure in Orange ' there was ' Live in Japan ' ! If you were ever lucky enough to find a copy of it...
Saw that show at the Orange County Fair. Awesome.
crazy how this footage from 1984 sounds better than concerts from early 2000s.
Tanaka put a lot of care into this production. if only it could get a modern release 😢
Japão
Tecnologia de som avançada...
Toshiba did a great job documenting this show imo Robert's voice is timeless and the band is firing on all 8 cylinders 😊
100 years is amazing here. Andy's a beast on drums and Phil's a pretty good bass player.
The guy they picked up on wavers from the Allman Brothers?
😂 right, Phil Thornalley. Producer and bass player, and a fan of cowboy ties.
Andy was an amazing drummer. Played for so many greats. Died in 2019
@@OlafProtyes, unfortunately. Reason why he could not attend the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame and also why Robert decided to play Shake dog shake on the occasion. RIP Andy. ❤
That One Hundred Years was really powerful!
The Top was a freakin' cool album! Yeah...
RIP ANDY ANDERSON
会場にいました
Although I love Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me and Disintegration, there's a strong case for saying The Cure peaked in 84. They sounded great and The Top was a fantastic album.
A “strong case”, you say? Considering that I’ve been a diehard Cure fan since 1981 and this is the first I’ve heard of it (the idea that they supposedly peaked in ‘84), I’d say it’s more like just a strong opinion.
The Top is an underrated album and first one post Goth albums. They were finding themselves and it was super raw.
@@marmcd2003 Also, it was just Robert, Andy & Lol (a bit) on the entire album. Impressive.
Saw the Cure in 1984 at the Beacon Theatre.in NYC. The coolest band I’d ever seen. Had this on VHS when it came out.
That’s amazing, I love listening to the audience recording from that show
この頃のキュアーは、ダークな影といい完璧
スージーからの流れが良い
Andy Anderson on drums and Phil Thornalley on bass did a very great job, I remember the strange atmosphere ofthe cure’s album « concert ». Thankx for sharing.
God i love the cure so much
Shake dog shake sounds insane
Andy Anderson is a beast
@@JamesNolasco definitely his drumming made it sound amazing
listening to this with headphones, the audio quality sounds phenomenal, especially shake dog shake
I’m guilty of overlooking this band. Not any more. I have really enjoyed catching up with all their music.
Wow they sound so awesome. This is close to 40 years ago and I saw them recently. Thank you for posting.
I just saw them (first time ever) this past summer in Toronto. It was amazing! Simple as that.
Saw them on Nov 17 1984 at the Beacon Theater in NYC. The Coolest Band I’ve ever saw.
Fantastic version of 100 Years.
I saw this tour at Crawford Hall at UC Irvine on October 27, 1984. This really brings back some great memories. Thanks for posting!
A band I overlooked for so long, thank you for sharing this live !
At 47 , I only recently started to actually listen to this band as to me they're fresh and new ......Great Music , very well produced and sounds great on the old stereo.
Sir Nolasco, big thanks. This was another world, I loved it and saw them 5 times in tree different countrys that year, the bests till 1993, but quest of taste I admit. Still great, beautifull sending!
Recordando al gran Andy Andersson
" A Forest" into the heart
I was fortunate to be able to see them for the first time in Seattle during this tour. That show -- 'A Forest' in particular -- cemented me as a firm Cure fan from that point onward.
I have a cousin in Glasgow who played bass for The Silencers for a stint during the early 90s. He auditioned with The Cure early in '84. Had he made the cut, I would have seen him during the Seattle show. Sheer madness to think of what could have been that night.
Nice! That was the second show without Andy Anderson, great to know his replacement Vince Ely pulled it off with minimal rehearsal
Thank you for preserving this!!!! My first Cure concert was the Spectrum in Philly, Kiss me tour! THE best group ever! And you gif a phenomenal job!
Gracias por tu trabajo, se ve muy bien, buen sonido, el mejor que he visto, saludos desde Chile.
The more I listen, this LITERALLY has to be their best performance for a night…ever
Sound quality is really something!
Andy Anderson does such a great job, he also plays on a Smith& Severin (siouxie member) on the unique album : Blue Sunshine. Sad the divorce by health troublen involved. this is a dumming masterwork.
Отлично! Спасибо!!!👏👏👏
The outro to 100 years is insane here.
Great tracks list, and performance. The early songs were so good and still are 40 years later.
Thank you very much for sharing.
Beautiful job thank you
Amazing!!! Thank you ❤
I remember when this VHS vid came out. I had to leave a $75.00 deposit to rent it at Rocket Records in Suagus, MA!
That’s crazy!!! Import fees must have been no joke then
..and The Great Rock n Roll Swindle too plus most of their VHS library..75 bones back then!
@@JamesNolasco Same with The Great Rock n' Roll Swindle and all their other imports!
I remember buying this in 1985 at a record shop on Haight and Ashbury in San Francisco. The video at the time was so Rare that the retail price was over $50.00 ! Which does not seem like a lot, but in 1985 it was....There were many bootlegs of this flooting around over the years. But to ensure you had an original copy. Originals came with a large paper fold out of lyrics and songs in Japanese. I still have my Original copy ...There was also another extremely rare video released in 1985. This was called "Tea Party" . This video contained 9 of The Cures videos. This was a whole year before the release of " Staring at the Sea ". It was a Vap label Japanese release. The video is a sought after collectors piece ! Rare......
Goosebumps!!! I remember that one too!
Outstanding!!!! Keep up the GOOD WORK!!!!
THANK YOU!!!!
Thank you for the upload. 😊
Saw this tour at Numbers, in Houston. Very special
This is the greatest
muchas gracias por compartirlo, suena impecable :)
Najlepsze The Cure.
the cure, много не бывает. спасибо!
Audiophile grade❤
Con el mejor y único guitarrista de los Cure y no existirá otro, el genio de Porl Thompson, que debería estar en los tiempos finales de la banda, por ser un pilar de la música Cure.
Guauuu WAILING WALL... UFFFFFFFF EPIC
excelenteeeeeeee
I stopped listening his/their production in 1987 ; from their album Kiss Me (x3)...but I absolutely love what they did before...funny to realize that I miss most of their career but without any regret anyway.
"Kiss me" was their first massive failure in my opinion as well, it's just a pile of fillers with no spine, how could they not hear that is beyond me...
i don’t like kiss me either as well
I love wish but I do wish that it kept the dreamy songs that are like disintegration
Kiss me is very overrated
Aloy of the songs don’t have the best lyrics and it just feels very weak songs aside from a few
I kind of blame kiss me and boys don’t cry for kind of showing the wrong side of the cure you know
Cause when Robert writes darker stuff it fits and it makes it better and I do like the cute stuff too as well like six different ways but kiss me just it’s just not a good album that album has a lot of problems I just feel like people only choose a few songs and just listen to the songs individually but not the whole and album cause once you listen to it in full you’ll see that yeah this album is not good really
@@reddays8448”the wrong side of the Cure”? Are they supposed to be a one-sided/one-dimensional thing? How boring that would be. You may not personally like their poppier, more upbeat songs, but that doesn’t make them “wrong”. The great thing about the Cure is that they *ARE* multifaceted and they *DO* exhibit several different ‘sides’ to their music. Bands that stick to rigid, codified rules and conventions are the most tedious and boring ones in my opinion. I’ve been a diehard fan of the Cure for 43 years now, and in that time there’s been plenty of material they’ve released that I personally don’t like, but I’m still grateful that they/he at least don’t limit themselves/himself to a singular formula.
For what it’s worth my favorite era just so happens to be their ‘darkest’ era (Seventeen Seconds, Faith, Pornography)… but I also appreciate most of everything else they released up to Wish.
@@Shikta-poobah67 Great point.... This whole idea of a one sided depressed Cure only has always been ridiculous......
@@allowyou9225 Yeah, it really does seem as though most of these so called ‘fans’ would rather they had just kept re-recording and releasing Pornography over and over again. Just absurd. What these people don’t seem to grasp is the fact that albums like Pornography, Faith, Seventeen Seconds, etc were sonic snapshots from a long gone youthful era that came and went several decades ago. Inspiration of that kind only comes once in a lifetime, and it’s fleeting. Time doesn’t stand still.
Robert Smith once famously said (about making Pornography) something to the effect of: “Either I make this album and get it all out now, or I kill myself”. Sorry folks… that’s not going to repeated or duplicated. At least not authentically. Get over it.
Me encanta mi grupo punk, new romantic, etc ..................................... un abrazo inmenso a la distancia 🌹 ...
I was 10 yrs old. Dallas TX
2013 fue unos de los mejores en Chile canto 3 h con 45 m
Amazingly SWEATY forest!
That solo!
He did mention something about a Japanese cold...😅
Si alguien vio a Cerati en su último concierto con Soda se nota su influencia por los Cure, no solo en estética sino en el sonido de muchas de sus canciones...
Is this at the Nakano Sunplaza ? I was there, if so, I took my Sony Walkman with me, recording this from the last row. Lot's of whispers and shouting by me and friends.
Yes it was! I’d love to hear that, also was it a sold-out show?
it's at the 17.10.84 at Nakano Sun Plaza in Tokio. The Sax matches with the one on cassette tape
@@JamesNolasco Sold out, probably yes. We, German students, arrived very late and were seated on the upper balcony. The Japanese people were sitting quietly. Japan was accustomed to sitting at a concert in the 1980s. I'm guessing the crowd was aware of the television crew and was keeping almost silent. I didn't know, until now.
@@gundam1966 nice, I would love to hear your recording if it’s possible to share :) I know a lot of cure fans would love to hear it as well
Is it just me or are the synths crazy loud in this mix? (check Charlotte Sometimes at 1:00:19)
Yes I noticed it on play for today
The Cure like flanger.
And these days we think Dave Grohl is brilliant, well he can't beat anyone at this time!
There's more than a bit of Kraftwork here. Or am I just seeing and hearing things...
Perfume Lagerfeld 💜
👁El ojo
huh
Robert kissing fans after the show!
Who’s the drummer?! That’s not Boris!
the late and great Andy Anderson
thé best cure drumer!!! I ever heared! !!💚Andy Anderson💚
Andy Anderson!!!!!🤛🏿🤛🏿🤛🏿🤘🤘🤘🤘
in tempore memory c´est pas posibile lA mia merde lacan
this must be the most weird cure line-up. is that even simon on bass? who is that?
Phil thornalley who replaced Simon on tour from 83-84
Coming out of the “not-Goth” triumvirate of 17 Seconds, Faith and Pornography, The Top really signalled where Bob and Chums were heading; a beautiful interval before The Head on the Door and massive chart breakthroughs. Always one of my favourite periods this one. RIP Andy.
1:24:38 andy lmao
Lol on keyboard!! That was a short-lived experiment.
And I hardly recognize Simon.
@@thomaskinnaman3167 because it isnt simon :)
Lol's not even playing that keyboard... He spends most of the night humping it.
Not really. He played keys for them from ‘82 through ‘89. Seven years isn’t exactly what I’d call “short-lived”.
Ah, when the Cure still made great songs.
terrible opinion 👎
@@moestavern5181 well, opinions and assholes buddy.
1:10:00 😂😂
Love when he tells the crowd they're not gonna do the one called "Robert". You can tell he's not comfortable with being a pop star.
That being said if it's me and it's a cute japanese girl i'm thinking "so how exclusive is my relationship with Mary anyway?"
Ah Yes. Infamous descent from greatness (pornography) into crap (lets go to bed... My God)
I always wondered what fans must of thought when let’s go to bed released after pornography 😂
“Let’s Go To Bed” was initially written and recorded as a tongue in cheek piss-take on the pop music of the era… and then it charted. I agree it was a very weird turnaround, going from Pornography to stuff like that and “The Walk”, but Bob had made it pretty clear at the time that he was done with the darkness. I kind of get it. I mean where do you go from Pornography? It was one of the darkest and most brutal albums ever made, by anybody. It was the soundtrack to a man essentially performing an exorcism on himself. Lightning in a bottle. That kind of inspiration comes once in a lifetime. That being said I still very much prefer the unholy trinity of Seventeen Seconds, Faith, and Pornography to anything and everything else released under The Cure banner, but I also understand why he did a complete 180 when he did.
great gender fluid artists
Yeah, this is not good. Pop Primary is terrible. It's amazing how the trio Smith, Gallop, Tolhurst just clicked. The real Primary is dark and emotional. This version is just superficial. But maybe that's what gets you the money, mainstream. The average listener just wants something to play in the background and not really listen to the music. Really sad. The Cure past Robert's stint in the Banshees is just the Cure on a fast decline to superficiality. I wish it were not the case. Funny, the same could be said about the Banshees.
