Absolutely love Bruce Mitchell's presence and lifetime contributions toward the Durutti Column and what he does personally for Vini Reilly (in terms of management and simply 'moving him about')... Bruce' playing style is so 'utterly unique'! He doesn't rehearse the music - but rather 'he feels every beat' and is always spot on... I liken Bruce's approach to 'European (French) Jazz Cabaret Drumming'...
One of the most underrated bands ever. I discovered this as a 12 year old I was really big in to new order at the time and I was perplexed at the music store in 1984 at a record stamped with the factory logo. I bought one to try and I never looked back.
@@ediklau yes , singer , guitarist Folk but so much more. Try the album ‘One World’. There’s some great live stuff on RUclips. Amazing. You can see influence on Vini Reilly Enjoy.
Bruce was drummer in Albertos Y Los Trios Paranoias before Durutti Column. A parody punk band that was actually better than most of the bands they were sending up! He's a great Mancunian character who went on to found Manchester Light & Stage Co. He got used to get me on the guest list for many gigs and clubs when I was 16. Getting on Hacienda guest list as a 16 year old in 1990 was really something.
I wish I was there. Beautiful summer festival in Finland, nice weather and legends to play. Probably not many in the audience that knew about DC at all. Not before the gig and not after. Superb music and a lovely song for Ian.
Love....I can't believe that I haven't heard this song for a long while...I'm in n my 50s and am selling my record collecting... and I can't believe how great it's gone.... don't want to yap too much.... but looking through my LPs and other 12 inch records....came across The Durutti Column.... Valuable Passages....looked at the songs and knew that I had to hear this.... freaking...I never saw them... but they did a great job on this live!
To me very unassuming, in their prime and their finest moment. There is so much more happening between Vinny and Bruce by means of interaction in this live song than the ear and instruments would suggest. Just one festival, one moment in time and a priceless memory of two of the greatest ever musicians killing it whilst at the top of their game. Credit to in the skill taken capturing the cinematography. Thank you for this memory.
What this video doesn't show is before this song vini said now this is in remembrance of a great man Ian curtis and I don't want any of you guys to move at all... don't even blink... hey you stop moving....ok let's begin..
I've always admired Reni's drumming - but I'll go to my grave believing that Bruce Mitchell is the finest drummer to have ever come out of Manchester. 4:48 and what follows is amazing and it's clear that Bruce enjoys playing it as much as I enjoy listening to it.
Shame Durutti never brought a singer in because they wrote some great stuff. Vini should have concentrated at what hie was brilliant at, playing guitar and left the vocals to someone else.
I do not want to be the guy pointing out basic timeframes, but this song was composed in early 1981 (this gig is from that summer) as a tribute to Ian Curtis, the Joy Division's singer from their same music label, who killed himself in 1980. Sonic Youth schizophrenia was released in1987, 6 years later. I do not believe in ripping off, when we are just a combination of influences, although sometimes it's just plagiarism and not inspiration from. But if anyone ripped off someone, it's Sonic Youth.
Bruce looks like he's in a trance watching Vini. Two absolute legends.
He has been the meaning of happiness in my life for many moons now :-)
They are❤

Absolutely xx
Absolutely he is the best I have ever heard ❤❤❤❤❤❤
This band sucks
Been playing this on a loop all night.
I discovered Durrutti Column and Vini Reilly within pandemia lockdown and Spotify. Amazing guitar and composer and drummer Bruce Mitchell.
Good for you. Do you know of John Martyn?
@@trapezoidspangle934 just that he's singer or musician. Folk music?

@@hudsonquay wow! That’s so cool. Bruce does seem like quite a character.
This is a song Vini Reilly wrote for Joy Divisions Ian Curtis a year after his suicide.
oh I didn't know... Thanks
If you now read the lyrics they will be clearer
I believe there is some kind of critique to New Order too (... “same old order” ...). I think I read something about it too.
@@fabionick4230 I believe this song was written before “New Order” was formed, could be wrong.
Unbelievable, this performance. Can’t describe, legend.
so true! Just two of them/! god..
I can't get tired of hearing, I can't get tired of watching, the great Vini, Mitchell's catharsis, wonderful!!!
I wish I was there. Beautiful summer festival in Finland, nice weather and legends to play. Probably not many in the audience that knew about DC at all. Not before the gig and not after.
Superb music and a lovely song for Ian.
I want to be as happy as the drummer is at 5 minutes in, he looks so full of bliss and comfortable
Love the drum beat in this song.
The rhythm of a train

The song that can be put at the end of a Bourne movie. Nothing but pure art and talent.

remember john peel playing this way back in the early 80's, really trippy, superb.
❤ one of my favourite songs.
happy belated bday Vincent Gerard "Vini" Reilly (68, Aug 4) ;-)
ese baterista si que es alucinante, disfrutando realmente de lo que hace
Rip Ian🖤
So hypnotic with the drums too, my geetar hero
Tremenda canción y tema . ¡ Insuperable !!!
Vini: I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it.
What a joy.
great version
Temazo, la batería tiene un ritmo brutal y el riff de la guitarra es adictivo! La prefiero a la versión del disco,gracias por compartir!
Tal cual, majo.
i call it: masterpiece
beautiful.
4:24 to 6:50 is just magical guitar and drums
takes me to another place
Me encantan ,y sobre todo está canción
only occasional can I handle the hurt of this thing of beauty. touched.
Me too. Sometimes I put it on and immediately stop it, 'cause it's too much, I need to be really on good spirits to listen to it. It's so beautiful.
bloody lovely
From 04:30 best two minutes since long! Sublime editing and filming ❤️
Such a live wonderfulness...
this is amazing
Please wait for 5.07 when Bruce the drummer has a giggle with himself i watched this nearly 40 years ago in 1981
thank you for the tip :) Loved to see it now
Στην λευκη με αγαπη αλεξανδρος 1991 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Ian Curtis is the Missing Boy...!
great song
it makes me cry
Best band from Manchester .
Amazing...
Thanks for the upload, what a great footage... Vini sounds so much like Gottsching... Cheers!!!
Terrific drumming.
Durutti column's own tube channel says this concert took place in 1981
BRILLIANCE 🙏🏽 Vini 🙏🏽
Incredible!
Do they know how lucky they are? The audience I mean. They look either bemused or stunned or both.
i love this song
40数年ずっと探してたやつ見つけた😭✨✨これこれこれこれ！！！
Capolavoro
Sad that the audience didn't realise this was musical history in the making........
I've seen them a few times, I always felt Vinnie/s music is too intelligent for a concert setting.
@@keithbentley6081 wish he’d do a show now though
Kind of, yeah
Today is a special day for it....
6'20". Fab Vini
1981 when this concert happened
where?
@@wunderdoggy in Finland
Yes
This is from 1981, not 1984
where?
Finland. This vid was on YT years back from another poster, who clearly identified it as that time and place.
*THIS IS FROM 1982! (at least that's when IKON FCL released it.)*
You gotta make the guitar dance
That drummer is giving it socks
Dead still crowd. I'm swaying my hips sitting up in bed to that drumbeat.
You cut off the last note.
I don't see any versions that aren't cut off
Please turn off this video stabilizer!
*1981*
Does anybody know the name of the video tape this is from. I seem to remember it was a festival. I think it was an Ikon FCL production.
about ian curtis
3:57... roadie comes...
Loved it and wait for him smiling later
the snare eand the ton have the same sound?
so jealous of that mic
Two aces
3:58... what timing....
Mickey Baumann ...aaah, yawn...
Does someone know what was the event where this live has been recorded ?
This version is so fucking good.
...bruce under drugs......happy !
Magic seeing him, innit?
Woodstock in Finland
can we find this live on cd ?
What did the roadie ask him at 3:57?
"Is it okay uploading this on youtube ?"
And the piano????
uugh, fucking amazing
10/10
anyone know who the bass player was ?
Keir Stewart ?
@@OlliesTreasures thank you, x
I don't think there was one? Vini does a fingerstyle technique where he plucks "bass" notes with his thumb
Voll heiß in der ☀️ 6:43 km. KI
Shaggy Scooby
So schade Ian..die 80er hätten dir gefallen.
Shame Durutti never brought a singer in because they wrote some great stuff. Vini should have concentrated at what hie was brilliant at, playing guitar and left the vocals to someone else.
Would love to see this gentleman with a short, back and sides haircut.
AS REGRAS E AS LEIS NÃO PODEM SER APLICADAS POR CRIMINOSOS ISSO ERA A PIDE ,,,,,
Bands like Joy Division, Durruti Column, Guided by Voices, and Big Star are just ripping off Death Cab for Cutie.
lmao
Great drums but mixed way too loud.
..don't think so🙂..
Disagree.
@@julietteverschuren4433 love the drummer but just bit more guitar in mix.
Vini looks like Novak Djokovic with a moptop wig in this vid.
Beautiful White England
It's Finland. 😂
RUclips comments: where you're never very far from a racist.

Is it me but schizophrenia by sonic youth seems it was ripped off by this song

@@sebastianodelleva I assume that's what Alberto meant, and that he meant "from" rather than "by"
Every single one of them a crypto Jew.
Both brilliant
Amazing.
