INXS - Live in Hamburg (Rockpalast, 8th May 1984)

[@user-du9ko1fj1h]

At 52. I still like this band,was part of the "soundtrack" of my youth. Whatta time!

[@gdubsterz1238]

These people had no idea they were witnessing one of the soon to be biggest bands of the next 10 years.

[@TheRooster881]

Indeed. This is their best material though, the songs they wrote from 1980 - 1984.

[@kelbell9312]

This is the INXS era I knew, grew with and danced for hours with. So good to find here.💓

[@tjocus43]

These people didn't even realize the greatness they were witnessing.. that first song "To Look At You" is still one of my favorites from them, such a haunting feel to it.

On the day of my birth!!!!!....great music great time..i m a great Fan after all these years.. .

[@briankennedy1192]

Can't get over how amazing we had it as youngsters. Used to see INXS every Tuesday night for about 6 months in 1980. Only 15 and 3 bucks in. Pleasure to watch them put out great album after another.

[@seanmaher2987]

Sometimes I freak out at how quickly life is passing. I can imagine being there (sadly, I was in Sydney at the time and 9-years-old) , but my big sister used to see them at The Hotel Manly etc back before 1984 and I knew and loved them from her record collection. Anyway, all this time-shifting, it dawned on me - could you imagine knowing then, what would happen? That in 38 years, over 100k people would have watched this same concert on new technology.... that Michael wouldn't be here just 13 years after this was recorded? That the difference between the two is 25 years - roughly his age at the time. The numbers seem profound, but are meaningless when I'm sitting here, feeling like I'm there.

[@metafuel]

Well said. I hope you are doing well the five months since you wrote this message. Take care.

[@malusast]

I was there........ saw them 7 Times incl. Wembley.......was a Gift to see them Life..............and ofcourse to meet them in Person once............

[@ThePolypam]

Michael's singing improved by leaps and bounds in a short few years but this freshness is so authentic and endearing. I really enjoyed this and their earlier new wavish/punkish sound, which I wasn't that familiar with.

[@myles009]

Fantastic concert and the sound really did revolve around Jon and Garry in those days. Michael having tears in his eyes when singing Love is what I say. Always listen to this maybe once a month on a saturday with the surround sound on.

I REALLY ENJOYED THIS..GREATEST BAND🕺❤RIP HUTCHY

[@richardharmes367]

INXS was born right in the middle of my college years. 79-84 College music usually is alternative, progressive, and provided myself with music that I wouold have never been exposed to if I hadn't attended a Major University. The Late 70's and early 80's was a time that disco was ending, and ALT.Rock or wave (Romantics,Talking Heads, Squeeze, The The, Talk Talk, Pysch Furs, English Beat, Depeche Mode, The Cure, The Smiths, B-52's, XTC, The Bangles, The Replacements,and why list them all? There was a band called The Fools Face, which was regional like The Replacmnets that I KNOW THE MUSIC WORLD missed. They were extremely talented, and to this day, its hard for me to understnd why they werent exposed. INXS, I have came back too presently. Thank You "llanie" and YOU TUBE! INXS were hitting the scene 5 Years after ACDC but fairly close to U2 BOY ACDC had released LP's starting in 75 with covering the most reaaranged and covered the song in Blues History! This is a great way to segway right to were I want to go with this comment. ACDC gets started with a blues song which the Stones still play, then ACDC completely went Rock, or maybe Metal. Great what ever you call their music! Awesome Rock Band, awesome titles, fun to watch, and very energetic. Thet however dont even come close to a Rolling Stones Show, The Stones are pure magical live. Why, we all know why! It's this simple, Mick Jagger can take a concernt and grab you by your ears and eyes, and ultimately deliver what most male musically influenced fans want. They want to what is impossible to ever get. The fans know this, it is hard to even process who Jagger really is? What is thinking, he is like some sort of super power that when he shows up, all over the world, he delivers and people just go fuvking crazy! People want that Period, INXS, as im am know afforded the pleasure of reviewing back. They devoloped from this show in 84 with maybe two or three tracks that became INXS. But what they really happened, is that Andrew, and Micheal continued to write, create, while bring in the skill of Jon, Kirk, and Tim, and became World. A Bands Front Man can elevate a show with great sound and instenanious, non rehearsed dialogue, using several forms of art, talent, sound, tone, connection, energy, power, sex, looks, hair, just shear unbelievable how in the fuck can he do this! Michael Hutchence, started here in 1984. Then in 1997 he became "THE ALL TIME BEST EVER FRONT MAN EVER IN THE HISTORY OF ROCK BANDS< I love this BAND!!! WOW THanks!

[@amerocker]

What college did you attend? What can you tell me about the local band, The Fools Face?

[@randallreid424]

All that to tell us what we feel I love it thank you I also love Mick as a frontman as well as The Boss Bruce Springsteen it would depend which one I’m watching at the moment as to who the best is for me and I do see why Bono paid attention to Michael they are a lot a like up front

[@marlenesullivan3113]

2022: I'M STILL ENJOYING INXS MUSIC. LOSING MICHAEL-LIFE REALLY SUCKS🚶‍♂️🤍

[@Bhousm76]

Born in '89, grew up to my parents playing the album 'kick' a lot. Always thought they were catchy but never affiliated them with talent and artsy type music. This video has given me a new found respect for INXS. Thanks!

[@jazshas]

They're a great live band. Some of there songs sound way better live.

[@shelbymarshall7202]

Completely agree!!!! Top to bottom!!!

The first of my 5 times I saw INXS live was at Australian Made in 87. Would’ve loved to have seen them on earlier Swing & Thieves tours. What a great era in music, INXS remains my favourite band.

[@anae.frazao5904]

Me too!! Sadly, he was tragically gone too soon!!

[@nouid9435]

Yeh.. it was far too sad 😔 . Met Michael in early 1990s, but had met Jon (Farris - the drummer, in late 1987 @ Kinselas talking to a woman), just b4 I turned 18. I had actually spoken to Michael for around 7-10 mins on a street in Sydney. Didn't think that he'd stand around and chat after making one of the best albums of all time.

[@bob-pr8ye]

I was so lucky to see them on the West Coast U. S in the early 90's.. I paid 10 dollars for a ticket and it was in a gymnasium ...... Pretty cool ! Michael reached down to shake hands with everyone I was standing by.. I did not get my hands up in time. Big regret

[@NicBunnymen]

this is how I want to remember INXS.

[@myway43]

I saw them open for Adam Ant back in the day. They were fantastic!!

Wow! Only saw INXS once in '85 and it was so hot that I fainted. Missed the whole concert. This makes a bit up for that. Thanks so much. The most underrated band ever. I loved them the first time I heard them.

[@marlenesullivan3113]

WHAT A BAD TIME TO FAIN. I DOUBT THEY WERE EVER UNDERATED...??

[@ericvandelisdonk5512]

By the so-called ‘serious music critics’ over here (Holland) their unique sound and brilliant songs were never fully appreciated. Nor was Michael’s voice. But we knew better 😊

[@saveyourselfnow]

Saw this late one night back then. To look at you, my favorite song... really was where they were heading, the style of Michael's approach. But live baby live, best album and concert video easily. That's how I like remembering them. The Royals concert really great also. Love the song one x one, it's only on live baby live album though and not the concert video... which sucked. But I have plenty of live stuff of theirs on VHS. Found a video DVD called I'm only looking... lots of different stuff on it. Another really great thing to own if into this band

[@Skoora]

So many of the greats their best music was in the first 4-5 years. All the Australian greats had a first few amazing records then the slickness and commerciality of mid 80’s on just filtered out what was unique, fiery and special. Actually this shift was the same for almost any pop/rock/metal music where the bands began in the late 70’s.

[@teresajankowska9347]

Młodzi,zbuntowani,spontaniczni!!Fantastyczny zespół do końca.

[@SA-ud9nf]

The band was awesome even then but was just in the process of growing in music and performance yet. The audience barely clapped and some of these indifferent kids didn't know they had brilliance in front of them. Goes to show waiting and saving the best for last is worth it. I'm sure they saw something special about him that drew them towards them. They had no idea. I'd still listen to their old music. It was actually very energetic, yet professional, intriguing and a smooth sound. Michael seemed unsure if he was bringing it but he kept determined and succeeded. That's ambition. Never give up. He taught me a lot just watching his shows throughout his life.

[@Trish-fj9dr]

Michael is such a great front man. One of the best, in my opinion ❤

[@blainemullins6285]

Best version of "I Send a Message" I've seen or heard.

[@Bluepillphil-d1w]

Agreed. I was no fan of that album, they became too produced and glitzy or something, but this was how the song should sound

[@denisemcnally9488]

Gotta hand it to Kirk: when it came to hair and clothes he wasn't afraid to try anything! They were all such unique individuals stylistically speaking...but put them together and the combination musically speaking...AWESOME.

[@jazshas]

Yes I liked that about them. Each person had their own individual style but still fit together in unity as a band.

[@renaelynn6376]

this may a part of the future..they knew they could do it!

[@garion333]

Admittedly, their songwriting took off not soon after this. Original Sin was the start. Top to bottom workmanlike setlist, but they put the effort in and then came through.

[@Bluepillphil-d1w]

Other way around. Original Sin was the beginning of the end. Their innovative songs are all on their first three albums.

[@hawktb9]

Judging from the reaction of the crowd, INXS was still a relative unknown in Germany in 1984. Very conservative and restrained audience. No chuckles from anyone when Michael mentioned "The Swing" album.

[@hutch1197]

Back then, Germany was still oddly behind in pop culture. They were still playing 70's disco in their clubs, etc. Bands would play there and be puzzled by what they knew or didn't.

[@richardharmes367]

2 of 2 It wasn't until 1984 that INXS actually were even exposed to N America. Following their 3rd Album Shoobah Shabaah that had two song titles which ultimately was the very beginning of INXS's transition from a great club band with European and Australian exposure only. Then they continued to play, work on their identity and remaining passionate with their Music. Then Listen Like Thieves exposed them to the World! Then, with the talent that every member brought to the group, ( Kirk ) and ( Jon) were the most talented instrumentalist They were brothers, they bought into the Band Concept It's widely known that after they became World. Hutch would only allow photos which included the entire band.. INXS here in 1984, then were they ended in Europe in 1997 is after just writing their Album with Hutch, clearly is one of the finest examples how a band continued to just morph into INXS So original and with a frontman and all his band getting to the very Top. That arrived earlier than 1997 They just just really wanted to use their success, to get them to another place. They did it! I Wonder. I really do. What would be their place in Music. If Michael would be able to continue to act on the world stage, continuing to allow all his band and their music, and remain with his audience, after all they were his world. That world was very small And Michael loved that small world when he was ALL WORLD'

[@katiafloreskaexpressions336]

You're almost spot on ... they actually performed the US Festival in San Bernadino, CA in 1983, promoting Shabooh Shabbah. It's a great piece of footage.

[@jrrcorcloudsaremine]

That’s not true... I saw them on MTV back in 1981-1982.... I honestly miss these songs and feel they should have kept all of them in the show!!!
