I saw this episode of the Beat on LWT at the time (14 years old), but I regret that I never saw this Pulp live. The first time I finally got to see them was the next year, headlining at Glastonbury (to everyone's surprise), at which point they spontaneously jumped up a league. This Pulp retains the rough edges of a club band, and I like it a lot, today and then. Most britpop was shit, but Pulp were doing it before it had a name, and before major labels started snapping up any twat in a Fred Perry. This lot and Suede and Modern Life is Rubbish and that's not a bad snapshot for Brtipop before it was Britpop.
Thanks for the upload mate!👍 Its hard to impossible to find early Tv footage of Pulp! I've been looking for ages and I'd given up hope of ever finding footage of them playing on The Beat! Thanks for making my day dude👍😁
RIP Steve Mackey 11/10/1966 - 03/02/2023 We lost one of the best! :(
jarvis’ outfits always mesmerise me, he is an enchantingly attractive individual
90s britpop was the pinnacle.
The era when music was great … Pulp was so unique!
TIMESTAMPS
Love to hear a live version of the song His & Hers
Cheers for this - I had it on VHS back in the day. If I remember it was broadcast with Sultans of Ping FC effectively in support.
Thanks for uploading! Classic! ❤
This is pure magic thank you for posting!! ❤

Jarvis is a saucy 30 years young here.
Pretty Candida here
Steve, is there any chance you have The Poppies on the Beat at the Astoria?!
