I was at that show! I can see myself when the camera pans on the crowd, wow that was 28 years ago. What a great find!
What a show!!! Zabriskie Point is a surprise masterpiece. It's carefully built & perfectly placed with altered lyrics that segue into World Shut Your Mouth with such a huge climax that Eve's Volcano erupts all over again & again.
Thank you Peggy Droolian for sharing this gem, and to JC- the big man himself!

There's a point when it's 3am and you finally find this,..
What a band here!! Fantastic!!
Brilliant performance from my favorite Julian Cope period.
Cope the Pope
live music straight in the face , brilliant act, stellar band
I saw Julian on this tour at Newcastle Mayfair in a tragic year I'll never forget but Julian's performance was a shining light. Tamworth's finest!!
I'm so jealous!!! But hey why was it a tragic year? I've seen other people mention that it was tragic one but nobody says why. Was it the awful storm with all those deaths which the disgraced newsman had said wouldn't be a problem but was dead wrong and then lied about it?
@@ChrMmnNot only that, but the killing spree embarked upon by Michael Ryan in Hungerford on August 19th 1987.
I totally buy the rock god vibe that Cope and Cally were shooting for, I was blown away by how good the band are though
I've seen him a few times and he's always been immensely entertaining. He has changed his image so much over the years but I love that he seems he has always just done his thing, whatever that might be at the time
Saw him at the Haçienda, World Shut Your Mouth tour... peerless
Phenomenal
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Julian Cope es Brillante...un enorme y auténtico ARTISTA..🎉🎉..( excelente versión de "the non-alignment pact" de los Pere Ubu👍🏻)..
Cracking performance. Cool keyboards. If Peter Jackson isn't working on a restoration remaster he should be. I really like the way Julian's songs may start in familiar territory but nicely twist against expectations to push in other appealing directions and, most importantly, never a dull chord progression, which is more than one can say for many a contemporary. Julian never flogs a dead horse, that's for sure - there is always far more unstated than ever gets out (rather than far less). It helps to have read Repossessed too, (so you can glean the punk/krautrock/etc influences) then re-listen to all the music of that time starting with Fried. It's amazing to think that he hadn't yet got to the heights of the amazing Peggy Suicide album in '87. A true and deserving legend.
...and what a smokin' band.... GREAT TALENT, and use THEREOF... '87 was a pretty awful year for me... "too busy" to pay attention to all of this great music. Thanks so much for documenting such a special moment.
I was at this show. He was awesome. I love Julian Cope!
Incredibile Julian Cope!!! Very Great!!
Thanks! I saw this on TV in 87, but not since... What a great performance!
julian went on to do so many great things ..thanks for all the great music over the years julian ...
My favorites here are "Strasbourg" and "Bandy's First Jump." What Julian does in "Spacehopper" is incredible : )
Ladies and Gentleman, Live on MTV....Julian Pope!!! God bless the yanks!!
In my early teens I was a Teardrops fan and my enjoyment of Julian Cope's music extends to this day. I've seen him live several times over the years and now thanks to RUclips I can relive these fantastic moments in music history. Great post, Peggy.
What a great tight band-fab !
I preferred his version of this when he belts out "In my home i feel safest of all........blues in the kitchen and speed in the hall"
This is absolutely brilliant. Jings, he had some good tunes!
I think that's the only period in his career where he came across as part of a band, even more than Teardrop. I hope he works with Donald again.
Sorry to be offtopic but does someone know a trick to log back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb forgot the password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me!
@Simon Hank Instablaster ;)
@Grayson Hamza thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process now.
Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Grayson Hamza it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my account!
@Simon Hank you are welcome :)
Chris Witten!!!!
Brilliant Copey with a great tight behind him...great period !!!
That was fucking brilliant!!! Thank you so much for sharing it Peggy. I saw him at Glastonbury that year and was spellbound, the sound and those songs were so powerful. Will never forget it. Seeing this is the closest I'll get to it again. Love his early stuff, first 4 albums + Teardrop's 2, but then he seemed to lose the plot and make music that I couldn't follow.
Tim, I agree with the "losing the plot" generally, but don't forget the two gems during the dross period: Rite and Rite 2. Both brilliant works, totally different than his pop years. But, I agree, Brain Donor and everything after Interpreter have been lackluster
+Tim Coe I did Glastonbury religiously in the 80's. I know I saw him then, but very vague snippets of memory. The hash fudge was exquisite that year, & all the scrumpy & various other potions n powders....... I saw him 3 or possibly 4 on the St Julian tour, definitely some of his best work from fried on to peggy suicide. I lost myself in the 90's & 00's doing the parental thing, but the shackles are off now.....
I was 19 that year, the man is one of my favourite,( Yup, I'm English hence the U) songwriters of all time. His stage show was mind blowing. Portsmouth Guildhall on this tour., in paticular. Maybe the lsd had something to do with that? The bloke's a legend. Totally off his trolley Leg end.......... Great to see it on here, Cheers!
What a screaming delight ! Cope and a red hot band on top form ,brilliant performance and true to form Julian does his best to de-rail the whole show with some classic petulant madness . “ like a true subversive, he kept it up waaay longer than he needed to “ ⭐
What a brilliant gig.
Great version of "Sunspots"... Ehm, "Zabriskie point" is a movie by the famous Italian director Michelangelo Antonioni. Thank you, I am Italian.
Thankyou so much!......the best surprise....finding this today!
Saw this tour at Leeds Poly, supported by Primal Scream. T'was fantastic.
In my OPINION, the Mercury Years were his best.
Just got to this bit in the autobiography.
Excellent stuff, thanks for posting this!
This Is Beautiful -I've Seen MANY shows at Ritz B4 it became Webster Hall : Peter Murphy's 1st & many solo shows,Peter tosh, Sisters, & too many to list But This Madman seemed determined to OutSydon'cid & w/Charlotte Ann&PeggySuicide He came as close as Anyone who tried & was functional Not to need mommy to feed him -He's Terribly Underrated -Cause when He writes a Rankerable Tune it's certainly Not rubbish & Is Usually luscious as it is lucid 🤗
Fun fact: his custom-made microphone stand was called “The Coping Mechanism”.
Fun fact-check: it wasn’t, but it should’ve been.
'The Morrison Mechanism.'
awesome live!
Thank you for sharing. I take a bow.
"Ladies and gentlemen live at the Ritz on MTV... Julian Pope!!" As slightly ironic introductions go, that's gotta be a good one.
haha, ex Oyster person alert. Good work.
She definitely says "Cope." I've listened to it over and over in different settings and always heard Cope using earbuds. Blasting it on the stereo corrupts the C in Cope since it's an old recording and her mic isn't as good as Julian's. She also puts too much breath into his last name rather than enunciating.
Good upload and you beat me to it!
Your copy of this gig is better than mine, anyways up!
Oh, Now I understand ? You like the older stuff as well. I'm stuck in the 80's, 90's and 00's. I'm young yet. So sorry for clashing. I'm very fond of Gaz Coombes and the rest of Supergrass. And I love so much music. My house is filled with albums.
Eleanor Anderson So, you like 80's stuff? This gig is from the 80's. The clue is in the title.......Ritz '87.
Thank you for sharing your music. Sorry for being a pain in the ass.
Thank You!
Amazing.
He's a good lad.
Commenting to say: I was there.
Remarkable
Speechless. I saw him on that tour, and I always said it was one of the greatest concerts I ever saw. Now I now I was right. Thank you sooo much for this video. Imagine the impact if the sound was a little bit uhm…better? Anyway, this made my day, week, set and match.
armand bourgoignie I agree, I was at the show posted above, and I agree that it was one of the best performances I had ever seen. The Ritz in NYC was a great place to see a show. I saw the Church and the Cure there in the early 80's (The Residents, too!)
It really IS one of the greatest concerts ever. And I've seen a lot. A LOT.
Great performance!
The first 45 seconds (Trampoline) should've guaranteed him a spot in that stupid Cleveland thing! COMPLETLY CREATIVE ARRANGEMENT!
Must've taken 000,000,000's of theme tunes to pay for that fairlight
Non Alignment Pact! Pere Ubu!
In Jam. Jaam. Jaaaaaaaaam.
personally...as A huge Cope fan from way back in 1981, this is a great gig, but also the most packaged and marketed. The gig game about to relaunch and re-brand him. Two albums later, he realised it was all BS...and started doing his own thing, at which point Island dropped him, Long live great artistry and creative independence...Go Cope. !! you can't tame a wild beast
wtf is wrong with the crowd?
Reminds me of Iggy Pop.
Freddie Mercury got nothing on julian cope
a echo and the bunnymen copy
no way! echoes are more melancholic, but julian radiates powerful energy with his songs
Definitely a copy - if You really want to get on the backstage/tour bus hijinx of what Their into : Ian Dope & coke - But quality gear is His 1st❤️ Julian - Present Him w/clean Hits of 'cid & He'll be very🥳 although He won't turn down quality 'fish scales' So They're on different trips (pun intended)🤗
Meant Definitely Not a Copy
