I remember seeing this on The Tube back in the 80's. The Tube was recorded in a Newcastle TV studio so I guess they didn't need to go far. Some of BB's performances here are. To me, they're some of his very best including unforgettable versions of The Thrill Is Gone and Don't Answer The Door with that colossal vocal performance. Whenever BB is talked about they always focus on his amazing guitar playing but his vocal performances were equally outstanding. He was as good a singer as he was a guitarist. The band here are incredibly tight and the arrangements are dynamically captivating. Bass player Russell Jackson deserves a mention too. Just before this video cuts on Better Not Look Down, BB gives him the stage to deliver the most awesome bass solo. The playing and that woody tone are to die for as seen here - ruclips.net/video/13Ze4sRnE3k/видео.html
I was at this gig never knew it had been recorded.
Likewise. We queued for ages to see him back stage. What an absolute gentleman.
Same :)
