Throbbing Gristle: TGV (1979 - 2005)

Download

A fraction over 11 hours of live TG from the recording of Heathen Earth...
...to the implosion of the reunion gigs 

Do you need to view the later videos? No 

The view is that Gen was just doing it for the paycheck. 

The early footage however

I saw TG numerous times back then but the only gig I was at that is in the box is the last English gig pre the first split at The Lyceum.

That was interesting as it was by far the biggest venue that TG had performed in up to that point and well, something to me didn't compute, tho Cabaret Voltaire who also played that night  had no problem coming to grips with the larger venue 

TG?

With 41 years of hindsight  perhaps the (unannounced at the time ) split was beginning to show through the cracks. It was a Psychic Youth Rally after all.

Baked on May First/May I? 

(Multilingual word play eh? Perec must be quaking in his grave)

Here's the original 'Anglais' version of 'May I?' with a what...seventeen year old Mike Oldfield on bass and the utterly incomparable Mr Lol Coxhill on soprano sax. And I love Kevin's little laugh at the end of the clip

Think hard and use your vote wisely 

(By the way growing up Scott Morrison was banned by his father from going to gigs 

Explains a lot eh?)
