Another Graham's fantastic bass line.... this man is a genius !

[@MaxRadin]

The Kung Fu puppet is the icing on the cake.

[@KeithVJohnson1]

KIller tune, and they killed it here.... that bass tho...damn...

[@gtf2648]

Saw them 4 months before this and hung out with the band after the show. Amazing concert !

[@huskerider]

Black pants, white long sleeved shirt, black tie..Joe Jackson almost made it respectful

[@timford3599]

Joe Jackson and Joe Jackson band are as electrifying today as they were in 1979-80.

[@garywatson9121]

Great memories - saw him in 1979, and to this day it's still one of the best gigs I ever went to! Top man....

I saw JJ at the Palladium in NYC in the early 80’s. Great band. Graham Mabe was on fire. The most underrated bass player of all time.

[@mikejones-go8vz]

Not underrated, he’s played with lots of other musicians, incredible he is

[@jeannemlady9918]

Love you Joe

[@jeffallen997]

Graham Maby baby

[@claudearthur4532]

JEFF ALLEN the one and only

[@franktreppiedi2208]

I'm a bass player and he influenced me heavily. I even used to sing this song in the 80s.

[@treatmentbound]

[@WellStudied]

WORKED THIS SHOW IN 1980... JBSCOTTS ALBANY NY

[@chrisirving8712]

Increadable band🏹

[@lewisc215]

Prime Joe

[@kdrew-feed]

Can you post the entire concert? I loved this when I first saw it on MTV when they used to play music!

[@andyinoregon]

Sure sounds like this song inspired The Romantics' "What I Like About You."

[@AndrewZ54321]

possible but unlikely since they were both recorded and released around the same time, in 1979

[@andyinoregon]

@@AndrewZ54321 You're probably right. Wiki reports that The Romantics were playing "What I Like About You" in their concerts even before it was released on record. I guess great minds think alike.

[@twanger88]

Graham, great bass player. But Joe Jackson made this.

[@vincevanguff]

And you're rigth to be, if U know some men...

[@koestenbraumstar1843]

you are high dude.

[@fernandojorgelebre]

Superf

[@josephstubel6724]

Joe is great as usual and bassist is excellent but rest of band is not up to the task-
