Fastway is a highly underrated band. They had a very good hard rock combined with an incredible voice. This band deserve much more recognition.
R.I.P. Eddie Clark, thanks for those RIFFs
Eddie sporting his fav Miami Vice jacket after raiding Don Johnson's closet. RIP Ed, still love those Motorhead albums!
I owned the 'All Fired Up' album on cassette back in the '80's-an album filled with great guitar riffs and equally great vocals.
Thanks for posting! Love all the old Fastway albums. I just recently discovered the Katmandu record and really like that one as well. Would love to see Dave and Eddie do another hard rock album.
The first two albums are absolute monsters of rock attitude. Waiting for a Storm is also very good. I wish I could find a candid interview where these two describe their process for creating their work. The combination of hard hitting riffs, along with Brother King’s excellent vocals, the lyrics were poignant and felt absolutely relevant. Add to that, the ATTITUDE Dave delivered every word with. Fastway will always be in my catalog and rotation, with Zeppelin, Queen, Styx, Vandenburg, Queensryche, Boston, Aerosmith, Badlands (Jake E Lee), Scorpions…
'Waiting For The Roar' is a phenomenal album! Bought it on vinyl shortly after release, and still have it, and still love it. Loved how it was such a departure for Eddie and what he was known for with the mighty Motorhead. The orchestra sounds incredible too, and works soooo well! And Dave King... Just Wow! Amazing voice!! I enjoyed seeing this interview, as both really nice blokes, and Amanda kept it interesting with good and worthwhile questions and comments. Sadly, i never got to see the band live, but hey-ho. Have to add that i found it quite ironic that the last vid at the end was by Wendy O Williams (RIP) as she was apparently the reason for Eddie and Lemmy (RIP) parting ways. Lol! Fastway - you will forever rock my world, and i thank you for that... \m/ (:o)
Totally agree with you on everything. And I would have loved to have seen Eddie's face when Amanda announced Wendy O Williams, haha!
Hellraiser Gordon You just made me laugh! Ha! Yeah, wish i was there to see what Eddie may or may not have muttered under his breath! Rock on, Mate... \m/ (:o)
I saw Fastway open for Rush. They were awesome live.
+Jim Fancher What an amazing night THAT must've been... \m/ (:o)
jealous
@@thesoniccircle Rush has 2 good songs Fasrway kicks theyre ass with The trick or treat solo guitar🤘🤣
R.I.P. Dude . and thanks !
The "Trick or Treat' soundtrack is one of the top ten greatest hard rock albums EVER! Dave King is right up there with Bon Scott, Axl Rose, Ozzy Osbourne, and Rob Halford as the greatest hard rock/metal singers ever. I love Flogging Molly, but I wish he would return to this style of music at least one more time with a kick ass rock album. Sammi Curr was the shit!
Ian Gillan is easily the greatest rock/metal vocalist of all time !!!
AXL and Halford are very overrated
Flogging what???punk 2000s Scum shitt crap
I have met Dave a number of times as he is a friend of a friend and he is really nice and did not mind chatting about Fastway.He was at my 30th and was cool that I was asking about Fast Eddie and Lemmy.Got backstage at a Flogging Molly gig and drank his last 2 cans of Guinness ;)
Dave was only Fstway,hes brainwashed now
Dave King A modest guy with a God like rock voice One of a kind!
Who would have said Mr. King would become Flogging Molly's leader... haha!
I just knew it, dang. I really love his soaring voice in Fastway & Katmandu. He should carry on with hard rock!
no one needs that 2000s Band
I'm convinced this interview where Fast Eddie mentions "we decided to go all Irish" was the turning point that eventually spearheaded Dave King's 180 degree turnaround to form Flogging Molly.
Flogging Molly is NWO shit
He only was cool in Fastway and very talented but sfter that highs in 1986 he gets more and more into Shitty Folk same like Harrison from Maiden
I see the "set designer" went all out for this show.
+Darrin Connor very funny!
Born too late me. I should have been much older in the 80s and I would like to have not been born in 1976 when so much excitement was going down. However, I was bathed in, immersed in music from the day I was born and I strongly believe that musicians like Eddie Clarke and beautiful wonderful here Dave King should be giving lectures and demonstrations to young musicians on how MUSIC sounds not the claptrap shite we have now. Dave King I never knew was Irish until now. He sings for a punk band Flogging Molly I've read. Fastway have good and bad memories for me. They were one of my earliest purchases for heavier stuff. I was in a constant battle all through school so it was a natural progression from hard rock to acid/psychedelic rock and now I love it all. I miss the natural flow in music, the HEART. Now it seems since the 90s the music has no SOUL. NO GUTS. NO EMOTION. EMO is not emotion it's crap! I think my education idea is a great one. You can always learn something. Just keep your mind open. If Dave King would ever like to be gotten in touch with I'd love to speak with him about how his music always did something for me. Rock on guys.
W.O.W. right after an interview with Eddie. Cheeky, that.
That's impossible since they were never in the movie.
Dave King looks like robin Gibb from the Bee gees
the only reason i watched this video was to find an inkling of "mmmMercy I'm Gonna' Bleed Nobody's Gonna' Make A Monkey Of Me " out of dave king.
Gutted I was born too late to see Eddie live. Motorhead or fastway
Obviously that worked out well 🙄
Why there's no videos of their own old songs
I'm glad dave left and now flogging Molly is born
Flogging what????Fastway was a real Metal Band Thats all,80s kicks ass and nothing can compared to 80s Metal or Rock
@@Endo-uu8mo Dave is still a relevant rocker today with Flogging Molly, if he stayed playing like he did in Fastway his career would've been over a long time ago.
Edie MOTORHEAD is your house
Little By Little is a very good song, but the whole Waiting For The Roar album isn't that good. The FM direction with plenty of synthesizers doesn't really fit the style of Fast Eddie Clarke. It's actually the beginning of a bad period for him... The first two Fastway albums were much better ! Pure hard blues and boogie ! I miss this guy...
Waiting for the Roar has always been my favorite Fastway album followed by On Target and Bad Bad Girls. I originally found them like so many did after the Trick or Treat movie. I don't like the first two albums as much as I do the ones above. I agree that at least during this period Dave King had one of the best rock voices ever. Lea Hart the later vocalist is also awesome if you like poppy sounding metal. Im sorry I don't like Flogging Molly at all. Just can't stand to hear him not doing metal.
Singer seems nervous.
