You gotta be a Bruce Dickinson fan to find this. I love music thank you for the video m8
amazing band ! paul samson was a marvellous guitar player,mel gaynor a great drummer and Bruce of one best singers in metal!
Bruce Dickinson and Mel Gaynor - both were soon to join bands that would conquer the world in the 80s!!
Bruce Bruce Dickinson, before becoming a legend!!
*Correction - he Born a Legend, Some people like had to Learn through 9 years of singing, today I can say I'm very good but Bruce here in 1981 he was only 23 y.o and Jesus Christ he sung like a God, I'm not even to talking about his high Chest Voice range cause I can hit that D#5 in chest voice too and that alone doesn't make anyone a Good or God Singer like Bruce.
I was there. I was 18 and it was great.
That must have been amazing!
Awesome Harry Potter You`re Lucky Boy
I was there also. 15 years old . Samson just killed it. One of the best Bands of the Festival. 42 years later and I'm still listening to this. 😊
I was 21 and there.
I don't know if you see the drummer in the video, but the novelty is he wears a mask.
allez vrai ?
Bruce is a legend, what kind of voice!
Love Samson especially Bruce Dickinson amazing band
What a fantastic glimpse back into history! To think that within 6 months that voice would going to tape on what would be one of the all time classic albums!
Paul samson was a awesome guitar player!
Thank you so much for posting and sharing this awesome throwback. I have been looking for Mr. Mel Gaynor performing in this group. #finally
What a cool lookin rockin band!. I swear there's so much music produced late 70s ..say around 78/9 to early 80's.. 81/82 was simply magical & so unique.
Bruce Bruce was 23 here!!!
Some of these songs are classic, Paul Samson could write cool music that's for sure.
It s funny that Iron Maiden and Simple Minds are in someway connected...What an incredible drummer Mel Gaynor is!Amazing time and power! He must be the first black guy and one of the very few who ever played in a classic metal band!
I have seen a lot of concerts over the years... For me, no drummer hits the drums quite as hard as Mel.
@@goldsaj I do! I'm not a great drummer but I do hit the skins too hard 😆 I started in 1984, quit for 7 years when we went broke then picked them up again about two years ago, it's a cheap kit but we know how to make a Taiwan Ludwig set sound ok with good heads and tuning 🥁 Oh yes Sampson I think these guys are pretty good. I got here reading the truth why Clive Burr left Iron Maiden. Steve Harris asked him to leave because he was away from the band a while because his father died, Steve was a real a$$hole back in the old days. Clive was amazing, even Bruce said he was the best drummer maiden ever had and wasn't happy with the the way it went down when he was asked to leave Maiden
@Jurgen Cuypers Did you actually read my comment? Some drummers hit harder than others.
Don’t y’a mean thunderstick ⚡️(I know that’s his real name but come on he has a stage name too)
@@redextracked666thunderstick was no longer in the band at this time. He was replaced by Mel. It is Mel you're hearing here.
It's today I found out Mel Gaynor was in Samson. I had no idea this occurred, even though I thought I knew the pre- history of both Bruce Dickinson and Gaynor.
I WAS THERE!!
Ramsey Soudah wow!! Must have been awesome!
Fucking awesome!!!!
I maybe wrong, but didn't Iron Maiden get Bruce to join after this concert.
@@toddnimmock4851 This was certainly Dickinson's final performance with the band, so I suspect you are right. x
reallly?
Great footage! Loved this band for so many years now. The song 'Gravy Train' (which, it would seem, morphed into 'I'll Be Round' from the 'Before The Storm' album, a year later) sounds fucking phenomenal here! I mean, just try listening to it without moving your feet, or your head. So 'bouncy' and so catchy! Paul was one of the worlds most underrated blues rock/metal guitarists, which is a crying shame. He was so talented, and had such a good ear for a really catchy hook line! We miss both him & Chris Aylmer! RIP Guys... \m/
awesome rare live concert from one of the best new wave of british heavy metal bands samson, and bruce dickinson's band before iron maiden. and this is pure metal magic live at reading in 1981 priceless. #nwobhmforever
bruce is a awesome rock singer!
Too bad he didn't stay one more year with Samson
Bruce era sucesso garantido, fosse no Samson ou no Iron
everything so pure and raw here... best times ever
Bruce ❤
bruce is wonderfull!!!
this is a hidden treasure wow thank you for sharing this!!!!
The guitarist is an absolute Genious. He turned an sg with p90s into a fucking heavy metal machine gun!!!!!
I was waiting for someone to post this complete! Got tired of fishing for the bits & pieces,thanks dude!!!
this band kicked some serious hard rocking' ass
0:51 - Here the camera momentarily goes haywire due to the spacetime distortion caused by Bruce Dickinson teleporting onto the stage.
Taurelion hahaha
It's more obvious than in Maiden, how much Dickinson was influenced by Ian Gillan.
Not to forget Arthur Brown.
I thought that with the Gillan reference
It’s a crime most of the world never got to hear real early Dickinson on a bigger stage. Those vocals are Sooo strong!
I mean he had a great second wind too in the 90’s and too but those young vocal cords cut like a knife through butter!
It’s been about 40 years since I last heard the song Hammerhead, what a fantastic song!
Great voice !
He born to be a star.
A truly great guitarist, the playing at the beginning of "Walking Out on You" is awesome
.......and after this very show, rod approached him under a light pole and proposed him the place of the lead singer in a band called IRON MAIDEN!....The rest is history
wow, shock tactics is the ultimate album
Omg... Bruce Dickinson, Mel Gaynor... what a band.
Earth Mother is an amazing song!
Dickinson incredible
Брюс -- это наше роковое все!!!
Após esta apresentação neste festival, houve uma reunião entre Harris, Smallwood e Dickinson. O resultado é TNOTB...
Up the Irons!!! O cara é demais!!! E o Saul Sansom na guitarra apavorava R.IP ☆ Saul.
Samson were great... I'll try to collect their first vinyl lp's!
que guitarrista!!!!!!!! cuantas ideas!!!!!! lastima q lo veo tarde. R.I.P. PAUL SAMSON
I remember when i fist became a Maiden fan the samson stuff was hard to find. I had to order head on, shock tactics, and survivors as imports for a heavy price. There was a company in Wisconsin called Ram Music which is where i bought the stuff. This is a good addition the Dickinson Anthology DVD which also has the biceps of steel video. I like it when he says, "Get rid of that F-bleeping mess (50:00)." I rate Maiden, Diamond Head, Samson, and Angel Witch as the four best bands from the NWOHM. I know Saxon and Leppard fans will disagree.
I believe this ranks among the best Dickinson vocal performances. I also like Beast over Hammersmith onin which he does a killer rendition of Hallowed be thy name. Samson was offered a deal from A&M and RCA for over $500,000 pounds per piece- just one week after this show, but Bruce already had made the decision to join maiden. This is per the linear notes of the remastered Live at Reading 81 CD. I can't blame him for leaving Samson, but some will remember that Adrian Smith had a chance to join Maiden earlier but remained loyal to his hand Urchin.
+KubrickLives Leppard? That's pop.
+Veljko Radovniković Leppard is a pop band now. However, there first three albums were Hard Rock. Nowadays, Leppard makes Bon Jovi sound heavy.
you sound like you know your vintage metal? what band and song has a lyric where the singer sings " spread your wings" kinda screaming it? used to hear it on the radio in 1986.
+Eating Pineapple Queen
But they would say something like warrior heart before the spread your wings part.
Где бы Дикинсон не был это супер!!!
I don't think that's Thunderstick, I think it's Mel Gaynor on drums.
Ozzman Osgood It is Mel Gaynor who left Samson to join Simple Minds. Thunderstick wore a mask. Great to see Paul Samson on top form again. Hard to believe all the original Samson line up are dead. Paul Samson, Chris Aylmer and Clive Burr.
Esta muy chingon el concierto ya los había escuchado en 1985 y si me gustó su música solo que no era tan fácil conseguir discos de ellos pero ahora con las redes sociales es mucho más fácil gracias de todo corazón por compartir esta de lujo saludos hoy me suscribí para agradecer el concierto
i remember when i went to donnington in 1983 when whitesnake headlined, i saw paul samson there where the fans were great guitar player gone way to soon
Bruce goes from Samsom, the band ends. Bruce goes from Maiden, the band bring him back, lesson learned.
Samson didn't end when Bruce left. They got a new singer and continued
@@Ryan_Thompson_Guitarist And that`s why Samson end Because Bruce was out and another guy enter bruce place lol
@@brucedickinsonD5600hzWrong. And not funny. Maybe even dumb. Yeah, dumb, definitely.
I jammed with Chris in 2000 he was a nice guy
bruce dickinson! you rock! see you @ msg! 2016!
Blablabloly dude.... You are my hero!!!! You post the tastiest videos!! Thank you!!
"Skinny Jeans" the first time around, only if the kids today knew we had em first they never would've worn em 😆 I didn't wear them I wore flair jeans until 1984 then they were gone, straight legs took over and designer jeans. I wore boot cut and still do, and been playing the drums since 1984
......and next year , 1982, Bruce comes to Reading again but....as a lead singer of Iron Maiden. They flew back all the way from Texas just for the Reading show and back to USA for the Beast on the Road tour....
samson brothers and bruce exlentet we love good times jouni from finland
bruce bruce onstage....AWESOME!!!!!!(.....and steve "bomber" harris in the crowd)
Is there a moment where you can see him?
My kids started listening to this music & i must say bruce has one of the best set of vocals in my humble opinion.Shame he toured too hard with maiden but still brilliant.
Man, I miss those days!
The best British rock/metal bands used to play the Reading festival back in the days, I wish was born
+MetalThrasher90 Agreed - these festivals now are just for poseurs and crap bands.
+MetalThrasher90 too bad all you got to see were shit poser bands like nirvana
You were born, but apparently too late.
I actually saw this. The voice stood out to me.
Mel Gaynor on drums who went on to Simpleminds drummer.
AWESOME!!!! Thank you for uploading this. ROCK ON!!!!!!
Good stuff 🎉
Great guitarist 👍
super voice and super young..........................
Simon sabbath 23!!
The quality for 1981 is amazing
? There's way better footage from the 60s. Do you think this is more than normal for 1981??
Dude you got a brain error or what? 1981 I've seen some clearer film from WW2, it depends on my factor's smh
RIP Paul Samson. Saw his band supporting Maiden many times (when Bruce was in Maiden).
Stone me i was at Reading in 81 and 83. ( I was off my face on all counts lol) Just never expected to see this. A trip down memory lane. No pun intended. I feel brilliant to see this old vid. Thanks for uploading
Barry Pike and you see the Barón Rojo show?
That day Bruce joined to maiden
Yes, either before or after (Vice Versa) the gig Rod & Steve told him to come to auditions, which were held in London the following day. Although it was pretty clear to both sides that it wasn't particularly necessary.
Curiously btw, Maiden still had about 2-3 weeks to go with the Killer World Tour at this point. Similarly in 1998 they had about 2-3 weeks to go with the Virtual XI Tour when Bruce unofficially rejoined.
Love the wow and flutter on the tape - some of us are old enough to remember that on audio cassettes as well! Authentic vintage tone - none of this sterile MP3 shit!
Michael Stephen I completely agree!!!!!! Even feels like you are there, ya know?
Michael Stephen yep adjust the tracking a bit will ya
Fantastic incredible rare footage. How on earth did you get it?
I was at there, went to reading in 81 and 82
That must have been an amazing time!
Awesome I’m a huge Bruce fan
Is that Mel Gaynor on drums? Holy fuck.
I was 22 days old. Wow what a gem
Long live Dickinson
BRUCE IS STILL BADASS!!!! STILL SOUNDS THE SAME. THE GREATEST FRONT MAN IN METAL. "THE AIR RAID SIREN"
It isn't Thunderstick, it is Mel Gaynor.
Bruce went over to the sound guy a little after 15:00 and yelled at him to fix the feedback. He was yelling as he walked off stage towards the sound guy. You can see it if you watch! Ha!
That little solo at 2:45 was the EXACT same one on AC/DC’s ‘Baby please don’t go’
A energia e potência vocal de Bruce é algo ainda a ser explicado pela ciência.
wow
Bruce is a monster since ever
Bloody hell! Stonking version of Bright Lights.
can you sitting my motorcycles behind
Reading was a proper festival then! 😜
I was there!
Is there any footage of Samson performing "Communion"?
The gig where Rod Smallwood tapped up Bruce to join Maiden
Que filmación , es histórica , el batería de los Samson no solía llevar una capucha para que no se le viera la cara o ese es otro batería que tuvo ese gran grupo ? , .
Un saludo desde Málaga 😊☺️
es otro este, el que ocupa mascara se llama thunder stick
@@MusikmusikmusikGracias por responder , si algún día viene por Málaga , nos tomamos unas cervezas 😊😊😊
samson is very good band rules t,jouni kovero suomi finlad
Thank you for posting this!!!!
its a pity theres bits cut out constantly
hey I like this stuff these guys were good
Vice Versa: The "apocryphal" saga of Charlotte the Harlot.
You can see who's feeling it.
Super band rock best music
The show wacthed and checked by Steve Harris,and then,Bruce was kidnapped.One Japanese silly journalist was asked by Steve and what he thought about Dickison.His answer was negative as he did not think Bruce looked nicer(yeah,very silly and non-logical reason).He was totally wrong and Bruce is still in the band.That journalist has been on top of the Metal journalist in Japan and definitely he is the 1st class criminal who made the scene moving lower.Dickinson must remeber this and he still hates him named Masa Itoh.
rockrabbitt HUH??? I couldn’t follow this story at all.
The fuck?
Tak❤
i played with chris in ipswich 2003
Yes
He is too good for that band.
Bruce " the spruce goose " Bruce on vocals.
