JOE JACKSON - 'WILD WEST' LIVE TV PERFORMANCE 23/06/87

live version of the opening track from Joe's 1986 album 'Big World'. Being from the UK I'm not sure what show is from but I'm guessing the show is called 'Night Life'. Not the best version of this track in my opinion but if it's Joe and if it's live then it's always worth a look. Joe looks unhappy thoughout and shakes his head at the end but this is probably due to the loud squeal of feedback followed by silence so my guess is he's pissed at the sound guys. Features Tom Teeley on guitar, gary Burke on drums and Rick Ford on bass. Hope you enjoy it.

This came from the album Big World, which I not only believe is Joe Jackson's best album, But very possibly the best album of the 1980s.

Nice performance as always. No Graham! The host is David Brenner; I vaguely remember the show. He was TV's most frequent talk show guest thru the '80s, and probably also a guest host, so I had to look it up: [Wikipedia] In 1986, King World Entertainment gave Brenner his own 30-minute syndicated late-night talk show, Nightlife, in an attempt to compete with Carson, but it was cancelled after one season. The show premiered September 8, 1986, on 102 stations[12] and was touted as "alternative".

Tom Teeley played George Harrison in Beatlemania.
