The Blow Monkeys - Digging Your Scene (Live 1986)

[@happydays0996]

Sending hope and love ❤️ to all who recognise this was a special time , peace to everyone 🙏.

[@lupusquenox]

The eighties were the best time with the best music.

[@natureclips5849]

In the 80s you had mixtapes with about 7 versions of the same song

[@PamCavanaugh-up3fo]

One of my very favorite songs of the 80s

[@emillion4470]

One of the greatest examples of Blue-eyed Brit Soul there ever was.

[@gowerbarnes]

man - I had no idea how good these boys were live - respect !!

[@AllThingmac]

Immense respect. They weren’t some flavor of the month. I’m really glad to see they’re the real deal. Very cool stuff.

[@Velluna_Veri]

Charisma like his is so rare. Truly a work of art among artists.

[@hansgruber1946]

I'm diggin" it in 2024. Great music.

[@brianmuratori3206]

This is awesome musicianship!! Not easy pulling these arrangements off live from the record...very impressive

[@bertc2314]

2022, I'm still down with the Blow Monkeys!!!

[@ewaldbaron4453]

Why don‘t we have bands like this anymore today?

[@albertz2392]

Unfortunately we took these great young talented and energetic musicians for granted back then... 40(!) years later we realised this golden 80s era didn't last long

[@btw500]

Quite a bit of that answer has to do with the ones buying records then compared to today. Easier to please the average younger listener today with minimal effort due to huge technological advancements. It was very common back in the day to see the band itself collectively write, produce and perform their tunes live - Dr Robert and band are a great example. Completely live, no tracks, no sequences and they sound phenomenal. Those times may com back because my thought is that it’s cyclical.

[@cristinaalvarezarena5202]

Because the present generation are so entitled and fragile, they won't last a minute in the 80s...as Einstein predicted "I fear the day when the technology overlaps with our humanity. The world will only have a generation of idiots." Albert Einstein

[@originalkingalpha5116]

​@@cristinaalvarezarena5202BOOM!✌🏽💯

[@Bindersandcash19]

Thst was the good old days, young and carefree, today is shit

[@davidhazelton5370]

The only band I've seen live twice.

[@declanmcdermott]

The Wonderful Steve Sidelnyk on percussion, Wonderful, Thanks for sharing

[@MrMustim]

Dr. roberts was pure charisma on stage and in the band who carried them far beyond their limits. Miss them a lot! :o)

[@originalkingalpha5116]

📌Sending love and light from Memphis, to each one of you as we close the year of 2023; it's been a ball, y'all!🥃✌🏽💯

[@vburd62]

[@declanmcdermott396]

The legendry Steve Sidelnyk on percussion, Fantastic, Thanks for posting

[@mariakatagiri3736]

This song was a great hit in the fabulous 80’s !!! Love it 😍 !!!!

[@craig68able]

The video to this song was so awesome!!! Great band!! That bass line!!!

[@axelkroell1818]

thanks :-) On the original recording it was done on a drum machine called SP-12. Even after all these years I can still sing it.

[@martinaguilar4125]

100% SICKENING DIVINE BASSLINE

[@philipmamaclay8495]

Amazing song , brings back a lot of good memories, so cool, too bad this new generation will never have a chance to listen to this kind of amazing songs

[@stratmanuk]

That really is a fantastic live performance of a really intricate song; really impressed with how good this band was (and probably still is even stripped of all the backing).

[@wattage2007]

Dr Robert used to tour as a solo act in the early 2000s with his acoustic guitar. I saw him once and he did a great version of this tune, just him and guitar. Some talent!

[@phos808]

wow, the drummer has a tight groove goin on, respect!

[@pixiefeeling]

Oh my God, today I love this song much more....

[@GiancarloBlaze]

I've always loved this song! This incredible performance takes it to another Notch!! Wow

[@JRB33169]

The way music used to be.

[@georgegallagher4779]

An insane amount of talent 🎙🎸🎶🎵🙂

[@chrisrnli]

Absolutely brilliant

[@rfernand40]

I saw them in 86 opening for the Psychedelic Furs in Rochester NY. Did not know them but they blew me away. Unforgettable.

[@timothynolan5987]

Ricardo Fernandez That would have been ace pal. I saw the Furs open for Iggy in 1980. Met Iggy backstage and Billy Rath of the Heartbreaker. Only things that make you glad to be older.Was only 16 at the time.

[@timefortea1931]

I saw them in around that year too! ( In England).

[@jumpinjojo]

Ricardo Fernandez I saw them on that same tour in Saratoga Springs, NY!

[@kukuman100]

I really love this song. Thanks for uploading this video☺.

[@juansantiago5654]

Awesome Dr Robert & Band

[@shontapl]

I love his voice

[@rubenzamorano5194]

Eres hermoza.

[@TopwaterTony]

They sound fantastic!

[@Robukraine]

What a classic band and sound .

[@TRGrande]

In 1986 I was listening toThem and in 1988 I switched to Prince, in my opinion, they have a lot in common both in live performances and musical genres, and they are definitely all true musicians.

[@GJReed-se6mp]

Great song, great look, hot sisters, and a fantastic groove! They don't make them like this anymore.

[@LisaM11278]

Love his voice and this song 🎵 ❤️

[@fabiansiempre271164]

Hermosa canción de los anos 80"s !!!! Me encantaba enia adolecenxia y muchomas ahora que tengo 48 anos ! Que glamour !!' no creo que esa época maravillosa vuelva ! Fue muy hermoso haberla vivido! ! Desde Buenoa Aires Argentina , muchas gracias!

[@txicocamotl]

Groovy and mellow, fantastic... No wonder the late Curtis Mayfield put an eye on these guys.

[@jamescoyne9059]

[@stephensmith3033]

[@mikecox3559]

Friends and I saw them in Dallas at the Starck Club in '86. Fun times! Thanks Patrick & Larry.

[@brettski2532]

💥So Now I Find Out This Guy Can Not Only Sing, But He Playz A Mean Funk Guitar Too. Blow Monkeys Were Big Sh*t In The 80s.🎸

[@chasfin]

Still great after all this time!

[@johngiorgione9153]

A pleasure listening to this song. Always liked it

[@markuresti]

Best song of 86

[@pepeeste]

7 años después sigue siendo maravilloso

[@pauldd7033]

First time I saw this live. Smokin’ Hot!

[@JeromekJerome1972]

Great performance, great band, great singer and great song. It's actually a response to Donna Summers comments about AIDS being Gods revenge on gay people. Remember when pop music was sophisticated and worked on multiple levels? Yeah me too.

[@Luellen.24]

Just heard this song for the first time on my hometown station 88.1, WWER, streaming. Great music with lots oof different song that Ive not heard. 💖💕💖💕

[@nieves166]

fabiansiempre271164,totalmente de acuerdo contigo.Fue muy hermoso vivir nustra juventud rodeados de esta fabulosa musica,que como bien dices,no volvera para desgracia nuestra.Pero gracias a las buenas personas que suben videos y musica como esta,los demas mortales volvemos a soñar.GRACIAS.

[@Mickyocean123]

I think us of a curtain age miss the eighties better music, better people, better times. when 🍻 drinks were cheap. And you could actually have a laugh with women you never new. Sad times now. 😮

[@marcushot1]

Such a great song

[@NoCanDu]

I always loved this song! I had no idea they were so great live! Can we get them back together?! 😎

[@slickvic5162]

They reformed in 2007 and released their 11th album. Still touring

[@NoCanDu]
