The Seahorses - You Can Talk To Me - Live Jools Holland 1997

[@TreVader1378]

You they were a good band, for ages it was the only tape I had in my first car, and me and my mates would drive around the town singing the album out as loud as we could, after quite a few buckets, untill we all got sick of the album, so I went and bought second coming.

[@mmff5242]

buckets . haha . havent smoked one in years. flashbacks.

[@TreVader1378]

@@mmff5242 yeah me neither, don't think I could handle them now, but I'll give it a go.

[@davidwaterhouse2552]

Such a GREAT Band! They came along just at the right time! They looked Great, Sounded Great, and had Great songs! It is such a shame that John and Chris did not get on because Chris is a really good frontman and singer /songwriter, and John is an amazing guitarist, but he always needs a cool frontman to carry his tunes ; Ian Brown, Chris Helme and more recently Liam Gallagher! God Bless 'The Seahorses'! dx

[@TheGarageJump]

Good song this one. That's a right dirty guitar part at the end. Top man John Squire - makes it look easy.

[@DannyMiami09]

I haven't seen this in almost 20 years, I had a VHS tape of all their appearances on TV but unfortunately misplaced it, thank you so much!!!!

Okay, love this band 😊😁👍❤️🎶🎶🎶🎶

Im just listening to the seahorses for the first time since I was in school in 1997. Forgot about this gem

[@jakezywek6852]

Very good, wistful, lovely melody. Shame they were a support band for guitarist.

[@-cityinthesky99]

Yawn.

[@jakezywek6852]

Problem?

[@Mikeoxlong276]

Sounds just like the album

[@MTCEFC]

Watched an interview with Chris Helme and he said about Squire having his guitar turned up too high..........👆🏻 Shame they couldn't have got the second album out at least. I'm glad I saw them at Manchester Apollo in December 97.

[@RossDixonTeaching]

Remember it well supported by Third Eye Blind.

[@KujoPainting]

Check this out. It's basically what the second album was shaping up to be. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jGqQg2OBqtWie7M

[@tallowmangaa7884]

Yeah when you consider how crap Squire solo album was..

[@ARyan-nf5my]

I think you can hear from this why helme was usually drowned out

[@kevanbrown7620]

Squire was brilliant in the Seahorses

[@ARyan-nf5my]

His best. Sometimes helme was too loud though

[@ARyan-nf5my]

@Oily Rag I’m not winding CITS up, honest

[@lazyitus]

It's a good tune. One of the few they actually wrote together, right? Who's the drummer? Looks like Watts was already gone at this point?

[@-cityinthesky99]

This is the only released song Squire and Helme wrote together, theres speculation on which (if any) of the unreleased songs were co-writes. The drummer is Mal Scott, he replaced watts in September through the December UK tour. When they come back in 98, Mark Heaney is on drums

[@lazyitus]

@@-cityinthesky99 Cool. If you haven't heard Mark Heaney's solo albums you should check them out. Some very cool stuff. He's great.

[@neilcarrollMeganJamieForever]

Their unreleased 2nd album sounds whopper!

[@hemelhempsteadherts]

I have been listening to their second and third albums all day yesterday. Very good in parts.

[@asw7696]

Why not upload the video file straight to KZbin rather than screen record you playing the video file? I'm sure there must be a reason but can't work out what it would be! At least you didn't film the screen with a mobile phone camera!

[@-cityinthesky99]

Because I have the video file on a disc and I am technically inept. Why don’t you install a flux capacitor in your Delorean, record this and then upload it properly! : )

Amazing vocals and Squire being a legend. Sad how it turned out kinda like the Roses, cut short by business and lack of mutual respect

[@paulkildare3137]

Boss...get on the bins..pinned up the whole band

[@charlieflavs03]

Squire always has and will be brilliant but does he always have to be absurdly louder than everyone else? 😂

[@ARyan-nf5my]

He was the quietest here?

[@charlieflavs03]

@@ARyan-nf5my bro he’s not, he was famous for always being too loud so other band members couldn’t hear themselves which pissed them off and caused a lot of arguments

[@ARyan-nf5my]

@@charlieflavs03 I’ve known heavier guitars with vocalists you can barely hear and indeed not a peep. It’s funny because literally every performance with squire the singer is too loud imo

@@ARyan-nf5my if you watch their performance at Glastonbury you’ll see that the singing goes wrong because Helme can’t hear himself due to Squire being too loud…
