Jigsaw - Sky high and Lido Shuffle (LIVE with a fifty-member live orchestra)

[@HandlebarOrionX]

I have mad respect for anybody who can be the lead singer and drummer at the same time and sound just about exactly the same live, as he can on the album

[@bernadettehynes-cafferkey3917]

Agree 👍

[@manxuberglider8]

Seriously!!! To keep in perfect pitch, especially on the falsetto “high” part, and drum...WOW.

[@matthewphilp6338]

Same here! Sheer respect for a lead singer to be a drummer too. Vocals and drumming are amazing! Jigsaw were a very tight band :)

[@HandlebarOrionX]

@@matthewphilp6338 Singing and drumming at the same time takes a lot of concentration

WHEN WE HAD GOOD SONGS 1975..

[@patrickmiller1834]

I was 9 years old in the US when this song reached no 1. I still love it no auto tune just talent. Simple and damn good.

[@wintersbattleofbands1144]

"Sky High" actually peaked at #3 on the Hot 100, and #4 on the Adult Contemporary chart (both Billboard). May have done better on Cashbox's charts. Couldn't find those.

[@treich9072]

I was eleven years old when it reached number one! I couldn't agree more with you.

[@jpht1964]

Superb drumming and singing by Des….

[@kjarby69]

Drum and sing at the same time!!! Awesome!!

[@alpheunetto9853]

[@nikdel3151]

F***in' great! This is live even better than the studio version. What a great drummer and singer. Funny, it takes back-in the-day-communist Polish television to finally give us a real live version of this gem.

[@TomDavisVideo]

LOL how bout it... but why have the other two mics set up... somebody had to able to fill in the lower harmony note on hiiiiiiiiiiiiggggggghhhhhhhhh !!!

[@john111257]

saw them in 75

[@gildergreen9995]

@@john111257 Would've loved to be able to experience that. I've been listening their songs to death the last couple of years. Were they as great as this performance makes them out to be?

Fkn Kings ~ must have meant a lot to Polska too. Love Poland!

[@johnpatterson4272]

We called the stack-heels 'rockstars' at the time and Jigsaw was from Oshawa, Ontario. 'Sky High' ruled the airwaves in Canada when it was originally released. Nice touch adding Lido Shuffle to the show in 1980, by that time the band had a greater appeal in Europe. Good for them.

[@geezitscold]

Long live Dez dyer..super talented..thanks for the great memories

[@bluesky4385]

I lived in Germany when this song came out in 1975. I would listen to it on Radio Luxembourg. One of my favourite songs from that time period. It still sounds great today. Des Dyer the singer sounds as good live as he does on the record.

[@nikdel3151]

Even better.

[@treich9072]

Great band back in the day! Incredibly talented musicians in this band Jigsaw!

I was there!!! Sopot 1980. Amazing!

[@nicholashaines1420]

Those were the days in the early 70s,many a good night in the Walsgrave and surrounding pubs in Coventry.Maknly a cover band band then with a bit of comedy rolled in.Always finished up the night with "Fire' by Arthur Brown.Sirens,explosion and setting fire to the organ,memories

[@janjohnsonamarillas3386]

I still love this song after these years !

[@marcm9999]

Great drummer/great singer!

[@jj-lp6ox]

This version is so unique and as delicious as fresh sushi. Its melody, his voice and nice wasabi.

[@danielfisch389]

Thanks. Great live performance of Sky high, one of the best songs of the 70s

[@voiceOfReason16]

I've always loved "Sky High". Drummers who sing lead have my respect. Both drumming and singing require concentration, stamina and breath control. It's not easy feat to do both at once. Great live performance by the entire band :-)

[@bobertc9096]

Karen Carpenter!!!! Drummer and lead singer....

[@jsm9096]

That drummer was the whole band, especially how great he is as a singer while also playing tricky drumming parts. Why did those other guys in the band even have microphones?

[@john111257]

they sang on other tracks

[@PaintHerWhite]

They're just kind of filler, aren't they?

[@69er16]

They are looking to get paid thanks to that drumming, singing, hero of the ages.

Lido Shuffle-Boz Scaggs. Toto in there

[@clannad99germany70]

@@PaintHerWhite It also seems the Guitar player does not play, you can see, he does not hit the strings,.so I guess this was just the drummer who play drums and sings.

So strange the drummer is the entire band, don't even think the others are plugged in much less backup vocals. All studeo musicians on the radio version of the drummer also sang Those were different days for sure!

[@jeffkahl]

They’re plugged in, just very low in the mix comparatively

[@koitorob]

Why cover a Boz song? Did they only have one hit of their own?And what happened to the orchestra? Do they play and the band play on alternate weekends?
