Sad to inform everyone, but Keith passed away yesterday, 11/11/22. A true genius, I’ll miss him immensely…
A brilliant, bold, innovative artist and a good soul. Keith will never be forgotten!
This is fkn gold. Over 40 years on to see the original line up live. I never thought I'd see the day.
What he said.
Hands up those who thought Gildersleeves was the Holy Grail. I’ve been a PiL fan since the beginning. Never thought I would see anything like this. Great quality. Need more please.
This line-up of PiL was surely one of the finest bands in the history of rock. They seem like they could have done more, but I'm grateful for what we got. Thank you for this!
Keith Levene showing Wobble how to tune the bass ... great ! Sorry , THANKS a LOT for posting this rare footage , the quality is astounding !
Sad to hear Keith Levine, founding member of the Clash, and In PIL has died.
Condolences to all his loved ones. Another artist gone too soon.
Rest in Peace Keith Levene 😪🙏
This is incredible footage. This is literally one of the very first gigs they ever played.
Holy sh*t!! Just discovered all of these Don Letts film clips! A treasure trove of amazing history caught on camera! The Slits, John Lydon in Jamaica, the late 70's punk scene and now PIL in all their glory!! A moving and documented Martin Atkins on drums! Amazing footage! Thank you Don for preserving truly important documents in music history!!
The drummer here is Jim Walker aka McDonnell aka Donut
Would've been phenomenal to see this era of PiL... I can only dream (not that they're not good now but man I can't get enough of Levenes guitar, that style is brilliant and is why Corporate is probably their best song in years)
Seen them many times through the years...first show they did in San Francisco was beyond epic...og lineup & Flipper opened -1980...SOMA cultural center...I felt even back then that I was lucky I was there...Wobbles bass & Martin Atkins drums shook that place thoroughly...opened with Fodderstompf...Careering was otherworldly...you get the idea
amazing Just love them
Priceless!
thanks! this archive is amazing
You can really here the Syd Barrett influence on Keith playing amazing, just greatness
Goddamn this is priceless.
Levene tuning Wobbles bass 🤣🤣🤣
Amazing. Never seen this footage before...must still be.....'78?
Looks like Keith is showing Jah where to put his fingers on the neck for the song. That's how it starts. Look where Mr Wobble has gone with his instrument since. Humble beginnings!
...And Keith's Nan knitted him a special jumper....nice
Obviously a big fan of the band. 😉
Nice and rare.
R.I.Peace, Keith Levene 💔
RIP Keith Levene 11 11 22 🌹🎸
3:02 Keith's guitar like a radial metal cutter tearing through reinforced concrete. (but, now, rest in peace)
Quite an exquisite arrangement and the vocals are lovely. Thank you for this iconic upload and hats off to you. 🎩
thanks for sharing this. RIP Keith x
I saw them at the Rainbow London 1978, incredible.
Was it Dec' 25th & 26th or just the one night ? , Playing the first lp ( - 'fodderstompf' ) public image (twice) & 'belsen was a gas' (that fell apart )
@@andchat6241 it was Boxing Day. I was a 15 yr old hippie. No one even looked at me. they all looked like me a month earlier lol
@@robertlivingstone3364 Christmas day .. I remember it well
And me
Amazing footage! This group had such promise. IMO there is no PiL without Wobble and Levene.
Absolutely agreed.
Pil should've really ended after the ritz riot show. Even commercial zone wasn't on par with the first 3 albums and after that lydon should've just gone solo and not taint the name of PiL
Yeah I think most people that bought records or saw PIL in the early years would agree , possibly losing one original member ,Wobble -they were still PIL, but when Keith went that was it really & they then became 'the John Lydon showband' - the absolute last straw was the '83 tour & the 'Live in Tokyo' lp that accurately catches just how awful they'd become...
@@whatamalike Are you sure you mean the unofficial 'Commercial Zone' (that was really Keith's lp - who was responsible for its release)...
& not the actual released PIL lp 'this is what you want...' ?
Jim walker on drums too
Wow never seen this stuff!
So iincredibly intense!
The single down vote is a U2 fan.
"Not a band, a company". But a really cute company, and a good company to listen to.
I saw that Tom Snyder interview when it was on that night. Lol
The best
Attack ! I love that song.
Keith Levene RIP
Amazing
Rest Well Keith Levene
Nice!
R.I.P. Keith!
RIP KEITH LEVENE 🤘😔
For commercial projects only .... wow!! thanx! precies wat ik nodig heb nu!
Keith showing Wobble the bass hence why he played sitting down, wobble yet hadn’t been in a band
Omg what material
The first Line Up was the best one.I don't know by what Lydon was driven to kick Out these great musicians one by one? I thought they were good friends?
Ego. Ego destroys most bands.
@@meciocio All being on different drugs was also a problem, I think.
Jim Walker said he quit when Lydon wanted the band to sign a contract where they were working for him and not with him
❤️
I think this the very first PiL show that was in Brussels 20/12/78
I was born 5 years too late to see this happen. Damn it.
look at Killing Joke this is the career PiL could have had
Influenced so many bands from the chili peppers to stones roses
Rip
Amazing guitarist
Rest In Power Keith!!
First ever gig in Brussels? Or second gig in Paris?? Wow! (I think it's the former)
So the ' Christmas gig ' at the Rainbow (London) wasn't their debut....I didnt know that
So fucking incredible!!!!!!!!!!! Dear KL Rest In Peace 🙏💔😓💔🙏
holy shit
Hey I thought the same about gildersleeve. That was pil evolution never seen b4
RIP, KL
*ULLO*
*ULLO*
*ULLO*
where's the bass ?
john a man who wants change but not sure what it would look like
I think it’s Paris dec 78
Ace
When this lineup came through San Francisco I figured rock and roll was totally dead and it was all upwards from here... what a hilarious joke!! But this footage is AMAZING...
Sounds the exact same as one of thier songs rather than a sound check.
Thats what a 'Soundcheck' is - checking the acoustics ,tuning ,mixing board & how the instruments sound together.....(its easy to spot the part of 'Attack' is from the soundcheck & 'Theme' from the gig due to change of clothes..& there being an audience !)
Ends too soon
We need the full gig uploading!
Sounds bloody aaaaaawful.
Stick to your M.o.R then.
sad .....
guessing this is the xmas shows?
@@tpc321 good job this film still exists then...
Drugs musta been good🙄🙄🙄 sounds awful
Awful mix
It's not so bad on the actual CD bootlegs, the videos were probably from the camera mics
