Mark McEntire did, by far, one of the greatest guitar solos in Rock history when they played, Love School at this concert. It is a damn shame they are not recognized much anymore. And yes, The Divinyls should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Just found some very old VHS video that I shot at Mark's home from his TV set during our visit to Australia. Mark and Chrissy were showing us video that Mark had copied when they were younger and performing on Australian TV. It is precious and if I can manage the technology, I will copy it to my KZbin site. Hwever, it may be a while. Stay tuned, and thanks for your love of the "Divinyls.".

+Stuart Namm...I clearly see the obvious connection between friends that for me adds the greater value and lends a special uniqueness to these videos that is to be be found nowhere else on any youtube posting. I want to sincerely thank you for sharing in this way the wonderful personal relatoinship you and your dear wife had with Chrissy and Mark. Both videos (warts and all) are precious and priceless to the many Divinyls fans around the world who search for any little tid-bit, let alone something as marvelous as this....and I think you've gained the affection of many by doing so. I fully understand the passion fans have for Chrissy, Mark and Divinyls and I share it ....I sometimes laughingly refer to it as ''Divinylitis''...a very pleasant but demanding condition that I thoroughly enjoy! Chrissy brought to the stage qualities that made every performance a theatrical and cinematic treat....she was ALWAYS bigger than life. I know some of the comments are rather terse and abrupt, but I would simply ascribe that to the enthusiasm and love that many of us have for this amazing band and it's principals...Mark and Chrissy. You see, Judge, when it comes to most things Divinyls, we're absolutely insatiable and more is never enough....

I read Chrissy's biography a while back. The Divinyls story is one of the more sad band histories. It feels like they only got to enjoy a small portion of the success they deserved. For me Chrissy is the most magnetic front woman I can recall... such sex appeal. And I never saw them live unfortunately. She reminds me of Michael Hutchence in that respect. The rest of the band may as well be invisible. What a legend!🤘

By the time I was able to leave, rush to pick up my girlfriend, drive downtown, park, and race to the venue, we walked in literally as they were halfway through their last song. I'd been a fan of theirs since 1984 when I saw them on Rock & Roll Tonite and had taped the simucast of that and their US Festival set, so I'd really wanted to see them. At least this video gives me a bit of a taste of what I missed.

Man, for a band to sound this tight and perfectly in sync without edition is so rare. The Divinyls is obviously one of the greatest bands of the eighties era, fronted by the best front woman in fucking rock history Christine Joy Amphlett. All the incarnations of the band had it and got it. And then you hear Crissy asking the audience "You're gonna have sex tonight?, you're gonna have sex with a stranger?". Blessings, admiration and lots of respect to Mark and the rest of the boys that conquer each and every stage they performed. You managed to engraved yourselves in our souls.

***** Interesting-I have a grandson, a high honors graduate of University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, with majors in English and Performing Arts, Josh Wolonick. In his senior year at UNC, he directed a full blown version of Shakespeare's "Julius Caeser," which was incredible. He has written a financial column of the Internet at a site called "Minyanville," which has now closed down, at the same that he auditions for commercials and off Broadway shows. This summer he is teaching acting at the North Carolina Governor's School, after which he will return to Manhattan and continue to pursue a very difficult path. His significant other is also an actor, as well as a costume designer, and she also lives in the Big Apple, and directed several shows at UNC. Acting is a tough road to travel, but they are resigned to it, and he spent one summer studying Shakespeare at Oxford in the UK. As I see it, his only shortcoming is his height- 5'3"- but an incredible performer and very motivated! You can check out some of the videos from childhood and as an adult of him on my KZbin channel. Perhaps you have some pointers, although he is well connected to many other actors, graduates of the University of North Carolina.
@TaskerStreete
@TaskerStreete 10 жыл бұрын
Stuart Namm Cool! Yes a tough road alright! My pointer is to 'guard your heart' and screen who you work with before deciding on a project. As opposed to the bygone era where actors proudly took any work they could get, these days everybody is a "filmmaker" and it can be challenging knowing who to trust and invest your time in. Oh, and the other tip, "Learn your lines and don't bump into the furniture" Terry Norris, Cop Shop

The last communication I had with Mark was after he had moved to Perth where I believe he is still, with his wife, in the "rockers" clothing business. As you may know, Chrissy, when last I spoke to her, was living in New York City with her American husband. They were then talking about a possible revival of the band and going on tour, but I'm aware of Chris's health problems, so I wonder whether this will ever happen.

I was referring to the band in general. It's been a while since I read her bio (I do remember her admitting just two drinks would send her over the edge). I'm pretty sure they lost the original bass and a guitar player to the heavy stuff. It's just sad they didn't break a bit bigger in the USA - they were much more than "I Touch Myself", and like every other 80's band were killed off by "Grunge". Underworld was a good record and it wasn't even released in the States.

Underworld is a very underrated album indeed but unfortunately it was released in Australia shortly before Divinyls' unofficial demise in late 1996 which Chrissy and Mark ended their 16 year collaboration due to ongoing feuds with each other. It would take them a decade for them to talk to each other again when Divinyls were inducted into the Aria Hall of Fame in 2006. Underworld was originally going to be released by late 1995 but was delayed repeatedly due to ongoing production problems.

Stuart, The Divinyls were a musical band that consisted of a singer, an average guitar player and session musos, often hired for the night. I filled in for a totally wasted bass player one night. The band were OK, but the singer was brilliant. Christine was a wonderful person and a great performer. I really liked her. I still owe her for a burger.

Ah yes.. reality check...Mark Macantee is a brilliant song writer/ player....his phrasing...melodies etc revolve around Chrissie's ethereal presence and unique singing voice....he is quite underated.

Jacques, I was working the Sydney music scene both playing and renting out sound and lights at that time. I would put to you that the original lineup was a true band in every sense of the word that later morphed into the situation you are alluding to. As for Marc's guitar playing I saw him play away from his comfort zone at places like the Musicians Club with Leon Berger where he more than held his own playing over Stevie Wonder's changes and other fairly complex tunes. He was succeeded in that gig by Rex Goh if I remember rightly. As for Ms. Amphlett I was renting sound to and running FOH for a young band who had aspirations bigger than their abilities so I took them to see the band. After the gig I said to the young lady vocalist, can you compete with that because that's the standard if you are going to quit your day job. She knew she couldn't and didn't.

@@paulbradshaw431 Mate, the original line up was phenomenal. Would you know why Harv left the band? I was shattered to learn he died recently. Gutted. One of my favorite drummers ever, always mystified me why he left in his prime. The drummer in this video don't come close in my musically uneducated opinion, no offense intended, but in my lay man opinion Harv is a bloody hard act to follow. ( luv to hear other drummers take on it).. I put him up there with the best I have ever heard ,depth, 'subtle', subdued and powerful AND restrained all at the same time if you get what I mean, and although the last drummer (Chrissy's partner?) was not bad I do not think any of the post Harv drummers were near as good, or had that deep restrained feel that made the band. Man ... Elsie! (a bloody work of art), Science Fiction, Boys in Town of course! Victoria. That's part of what made them. Also do you remember the old Tivoli on George Street, where I first saw Divinyls in the very, very early 80s before it was closed down?. Really small venue, low stage (like most of the old Oz Rock venues) The best gig I have ever seen. Of course man Grossman is 'legendary' for want of a better word and well documented but Harv is a mystery to me.

Never lip-synched in her life. Chrissie had too much integrity for that. Saw them many times live, always brilliant. The sound quality here does not do them justice at all but it's good to see just the same.

Fun Story! Thanks for sharing the show too. Really nice work on the "quality" transfer. Can you imagine if you didn't film this, you'd be kickin' yourself every day. Ten years before this show Divinyls released their first album "Desperate"...that's the album everyone should know, it's a masterpiece. We still have our copy on vinyl and it still lands on our turntable atleast twice a month, and there has been times when it just stayed on there for 3 weeks straight. Cheers&Thanks!
