[@FrankKrynojewski]

The true only real mighty TANK !!! Didn't heard of them until 7th December, 1981, support for Motörhead, Dortmund, W- Germany...they hit the crowd , well, like a fuckin' tank...that night they were as loud and brutal as Motörhead, we were shellshocked indeed...what a hard-driving band, that rumbling bassnoize of Algy ...hard to see, nearly everyone on stage has died...Rest in piece, Lemmy, Phil, Eddie and Algy, we'll NEVER forget ya !!!!

Tank Venom Motorhead HM heaven

[@metallicsavage788]

Tank we're a band like no other. But it's good to see this classic line up with Algy on bass and vocals are in many ways being more respected now than they were almost throughout the entire 80s. This is without doubt the one and only Tank🤘

[@hughzapretti-boyden9187]

A band like no other??😂 They're an obvious poor man's Motörhead at best!

[@lemmykay]

@@hughzapretti-boyden9187 No respect and no idea about rock. That's your problem. Totally different from MH and Lemmy took them as support on his tour. He knew what's good. Not you. I saw this package live on stage btw. It was great!

[@mattybutcher5105]

First live band I ever saw back in 1980, still a big fan.

[@jonsimmons4150]

Hammersmith?

[@michaelmarifern9541]

Rest easy Algy.

[@kainnosgoth7336]

Great stuff, man! This Yank remembers learning about Tank from a British schoolmate and his album collection, and since then, this stuff is just as good now as it ever was. Tank, like Raven, were true NWOBHM pioneers who embodied the powerhouse, D.I.Y. spirit and standards that this classic music will always be held to. People come and go, but great music lasts forever and this stuff is beyond great, it's totally kickass!

[@michaelmarifern9541]

My friend Steve had all those NWOBHM records..we'd sit for hrs & spin em.

[@dogdrill08]

I still have the non HD version yet. We will see what kind of comments are posted and then I might put the other up with this one. I am very happy that it brought the quality of the video up a little bit. Turned out damn good coming from a 20 year old VHS tape rip!!!

[@jonsimmons4150]

Great gig at hammersmith algy on the huge p.a. speakers..

[@mbenn8168]

Saw Tank supporting Motorhead at Hammersmith Odeon in 1980's. Good times. Some Came Running still rates as one of theeee catchiest bass riffs.

[@jonathansimmons5353]

I was there too.. Algy cut a dominant figure on the p.a. speakers.. great gig.

[@jamiewarriorwarlordmccallu5712]

fucking awesome live concert in Birmingham in 1981 from one of the best new wave of british heavy metal bands tank. shame tank was another band from this genre that was only huge in britain. but so damm magic and awesome i love their albums so raw. #nwobhmforever

[@paulocortes3822]

When I started listening to metal this was one of the first bands I heard at the beginning of the 80s, and loved the music run like hell

[@jamiewarriorwarlordmccallu5712]

Si estuviste la primera vez que tocaron los Barón Rojo en el "Pabellón te acordarás de los Tank,que buena noche

[@MsTimrussell]

In the mid '80's there was often a concert on ITV on Fridays - just before shutdown at midnight . I still have this on vid and a Diamond Head performance which also wasn't live . These were done just for promo

[@PROCY88]

Le vrai TANK des 80' avec Algy Super!!!!! Merci................

[@jeffblacky]

Seen them with Motörhead

[@hedwithhorns82]

I seem to remember this shown on tellabishon programme "The Tube", back in the day. But it wasn't, '81, it was long after I saw tank open up for Motörhead on their "Iron fist" tour, & that was' 82, i believe. And some of these tunes are from "Power of the Hunter", which came out in 1982.

[@mantas34]

Chuffing excellent, can't loose this band. Play that bass Algy and sing at the same time. Master! Class post.

[@ulisesfernandes1459]

ME ENCANTAAA

[@RabidGerry]

To me this seems like they are playing along to the actual album tracks, doesn't sound live at all. Like promo video or something. You can hear a rhythm guitar track playing during the solos so it's definitely a recording they are syncing up too and crowd noises dubbed in. Still good to see the footage though :)

[@metaljuerch]

I love the songs, because I really love their 2nd output. Bought the vinyl with sweating hands back in 1982. Only track I dont like is "Crazy horses". How can this song be a favorite to anyone????

[@ДенисДубков-ь2б]

it is pity that sound was taken from album records, but not from live concert...
