Gary Glitter - Live At The Rainbow : 1973

[@PapaSanto1973]

holy crap, i was born in 73...ive been a punk rock drummer for most of my life....never knew about garys other songs....damn this is punk

[@ManchesterChas]

Two drummers,brilliant.

[@mjh5437]

I was upstairs on the balcony at this concert and everyone was jumping up and down and stamping their feet in time to the Glam drum beat and the whole thing was bouncing up and down,I was really quite frightened the whole thing might collapse!!

[@vjmusic.]

so wish i was at this gig MJ... the atmosphere must have been electric... thanks for the story :)

[@nataliebailey1532]

A showman at his best . He did what he did that does not take away his brilliant performances.

[@Mike___Honcho]

and even your support for him allows his music to be used today in movies or other band's songs so he can make millions of pounds. do you think he is going to spend that money on the children he abused ? nope. he's going to spend the money you helped him gather on abusing more kids. your actions have consequences.

[@MarkRichShootingthebreeze]

Outstanding music.

[@patriciaalexander4333]

oh my - just found this - i used to be friends with the Glitter Band - so many times i was back stage - whatever the end result they were fantastic memories - the Glitter Band in their own right were fantastic - thank you for this - Rainbow theatre was an amazing place before it was closed due to residents complaining

[@vjmusic.]

great days..... :)

[@Boleskinebeatz]

Lucky you! saw GG and The Glitter band on their own so many times in the 70's.. despite all that happened afterwards that was the soundtrack to my youth, the reason I became a drummer and eventually had a 30 year career as a sound engineer, so I owe them a lot.

[@lhaaiah2707]

I saw him in Paris 1973 i was 16 at the Olympia ! And in 1978 when he stayed in Paris before he left for Australia for the horror show ! He talk about us in the book he wrote about his life ' Leader ! We were 4 fans following him around Paris ! Having lunch , dinner with him ! I steel have the photos of that time !I have one specially with Gary on my scooter with a bottle of white wine !!! He was very nice with us we were young but he was absolutly correct with us !

[@carlosvelasquez3279]

Good to know he wasn't abusive in anyway

You were too old.

I've never heard of this guy but watching him he reminds me of Freddy Mercury.

3 rows from the front! I was 15 and had travelled by train from Brighton....alone. I believe the concert ticket cost me 75 pence. Great gig, but my how times have changed. Also saw Sweet at the wonderful Rainbow......awesome.

I was there - brings back memories of him in his hay day

[@petealexander4643]

Big part of my youth, GG and GB great stuff. A legacy now ruined.

[@gilliankingston8259]

Sadly, yes, but not for the Glitter Band in their own right. I feel the same way about those TOTP's that Jimmy Saville hosted (him being around youngsters on the show, knowing now what he was up to, makes your skin crawl) and anything including Rolf Harris, he was part of so much childrens TV in the 60's and 70's and now the truth has come out we all realise what we saw on TV wasn't even close to the person he really was - it's a kind of betrayal of trust.

[@insomnialinks]

This is an interesting concert video from the past - just found two quality, live concert video's of Suzi Quatro in Japan and in Eastern Europe, from the same time period - and The Osmond's live in concert filmed at The Ohio State Fair ( USA) from 1972.

[@DeanaBolangirl]

brill love his music xx

[@vjmusic.]

[@DeanaBolangirl]

the music is the background to my growing up years nothings has changed it sounds the same,

[@vjmusic.]

[@keithlavallie6968]

And waiting back stage were a score of pre-teen 8 th grade girls thinking their getting an autograph and a photo. Little did they know they were on the menu that evening for Gary (teenie popper) Glitter!

[@kylegallagher840]

i cant even laugh at tht because it true.

[@Mompfried]

What a modest presentation of the backing band. But Gary always needed the full spotlight on himself, so there was no idea of using drum risers to have the two drummers more visible. This is a shame because this concert included songs, such as Sidewalk Sinner, where the potential of having two drummers was really used. If you listen to some later songs of the Glitter Band (e.g. People like you) one can bring forward that one single-armed drummer would have been enough, while there are sitting two guys behind the drumkit 😂

[@lhaaiah2707]

mine too cheers

[@michelvispress-lay2510]

Obviously, he was the model of Brian de Palma's Beef in the phantom of paradize

[@eltoro969]

Punk rock started here

[@mjh5437]

Us early Punks all loved Glam.

[@luriankosovo8767]

john lydon cited bolan and bowie but never gary, Although curiously John Foxx (pioneer of synthpop, first leader of Ultravox) mentioned it as an influence on Gary.

[@grant666uk]

Whats the name of the song that starts at 4.35

[@alsu7698]

ok !

[@mickbrave8351]

I grew up in the 70s and Gary Glitter's music was OK, but this clip shows him up as being like a strutting, performing Ape. Difficult to see how he achieved the physical appeal he had at the time.

[@Argus625]

Postać sceniczną GG wykreował utalentowany producent Mike Leander. Wspóltworzył repertuar Glittera. Zaakcentowanie faktow pozwoli uratowac muzyke przed powszechnym ostracyzmem na skutek skazania wokalisty Proces poszlakowy zreszta opieral sie na nieudokumentowanych zeznaniach. Paul Gadd zniknie z lamusa glam rocka niczym banka mydlana nadmuchana w gwiazde przez Leandera. Skwitujemy biografie. Wakacyjny wesolek Henryk Golebiewski byl z niego za mlodu. Podejrzany,poznaski pocztowiec wylazł z lamusa na starosc.

[@thomaszadorozny451]

Do

[@RedVynil]

I don't see what all the fuss was about. "Rock & Roll" and the 2 follow-ups were great, but I never heard any of his other stuff and this stuff doesn't do a think for me.
