    This band were fantastic. Brought out two cracking albums. Some great little gems. So underrated . More to them than the overplayed turning Japanese! !.LETTER FROM HERO AND SILVER MACHINES . SUPERB

      +JHarold I have a BBC live recording from 1981, brilliant! The songs all rock harder live Letter From Hiro is practically a punk song the guitar is powerful.

    New Clear Days is one of the greatest albums from the 80s, I'm still listening to it.

    Such a phenomenal song and band...for those who may not know, the Vapors recently released their first album in 39 years, and sure enough, it's darn good :) Woiuld finally love to see them if they ever hit the USA again.

    A totally under-rated band. Both "New Clear Days" and Magnets" were excellent albums. This and "News at Ten" had to be my favorites from these guys.

    Saw the Vapors Friday 5 January 2024, amazing as ever. They played this brilliantly. I chatted briefly to the legend Dave Fenton. Seeing them in April and May, sadly I’ve not seen them play what I regard their best song - Spring Collection - for years, perhaps next time?

    Great song, and a VERY different mix than the LP/CD. Was this a single mix? The bass really stands out nicely. Both their albums are great. Thanks for posting this.

    I never bought a Vapors LP and frankly had never heard anything but TJ. This is refreshing and unexpected.

    Saw them live at the Trocadero in Phila for like 10 bucks in 1980 I think. They were absolutely tremendous, about 70 people there

    • @stevesecor4382
      @stevesecor4382 7 месяцев назад

      Isn’t that both the best and worst at the same time? Cool to see an awesome band with a few friends but not so much for the band. My brother took me in 1981 to see this “new punk” band from Ireland. That was the first time I saw U2 (175 people there - the venue was a church).

    • @PAISLEYTIES1968

      Saw them at the 100 club a couple of weeks ago .. January show 15 quid to get in .. they were fantastic .. absolute privilege to see then deliver this and their back catalogue and new stuff .. go and see them

    im tired of reading people bitching about how underrated is this band
    maybe they are but what's the deal with stigmatizing things that way?
    let's stop saying they're underrated and let's over rate them or rate them or whatever, but just stop bitching around, you got me, and many other music-lovers too, sick and tired. thank you :)

    I liked the 70s,80s and 60s..but not much the 90s. now the music is so un original because the music industry is too much tampon rock with kate perry and that canadian singer. ohh . not to mention pro tool software- corporate rock =profit
