Vini has been the soundtrack of my life since the early 80s. A have the original vinyl for many of his albums and Spotify every year tells me he is my #1 band. As a drummer I was always fascinated by Bruce’s unique playing style and combined with vinni’s haunting guitar it has followed me like a soundtrack for 40 years. I salute you both.
And this is why Vini Reilly is the greatest and least appreciated guitarist on the planet. Be well Vini, we love you. Thanks for all the ineffable and gorgeous music.
I must admit that I am a sucker for the Durutti Column. What an amazing band with a hell of a guitarist, I love the sound of the group. There are so many things going for me whenever I listen to them. Vini is mesmerizing on the guitar. The sound of his instrument reminds me of late night driving home with my dad in Johnannesburg, with the lights of Johannesburg on the horizon and Durutti Column on the radio. Thank you Vini for always reminding me of him.
Vini, I concur with all the other compliments - & after viewing this - If You Were Me - now goes close to being my favourite!! - Have owned Sketch for Summer since 83'.. Cheerz&Thanx for the Music. East Coast AU.
So thanks God for the RUclips. Most musicians make music to suit their record labels and contracts. The music business is just like any other company, to make a profit from the product. Factory records never had contracts with their artists. Vinny Reilly, is so original in his own way. Not allowing people from the outside telling him what to do and play. Most bands today are Boring. That's why alot of bands were influenced by punk/new wave.
Always the same kind of "recette" A stratospheric guitar with a lot of echo, but never change a winning formula ! Vini, you're great !!! Amazing great !
This is really beautiful, it's a shame I can't find this track anywhere else. I had to download a copy of this video and convert it to mp3 to get it into my collection.
Vini, why are you not the most celebrated British guitarist of the last 40 years? McGeoch, Honeyman-Scott, Levene, Marr, Duffy, Bickers, Butler, Greenwood etc all great but Vini is better and much better.

Always been into indie and alternative rock ect. But somehow only just discovered DC in 2020 and totally blowing my mind. So beautiful. No words.
All the love to Vini, pure genius (Bruce too), greetings from Chile
The singer is Helen Farley-Jones.
Great voice. Sings well with Vini.
若い時に初めて聴き、かなり癒されました。LCは地球が惑星として落ち着いたというイメージでした(神と光)。another-settingは人間が陸に上がって存在する現代に進化したというイメージでした(陸と緑)。いつでもヴィニーの世界に浸れますね。今でも大好きです。
Absolutely amazing song.
Who would ever be wretched enough to dislike this? Totally had no idea this footage was out there! Brilliant.
Requiem For My Mother is just as good and from the same radio session..

So, I am not the only fan. Thanks for sharing this video.
Utterly brilliant performance
Mesmerizing and haunting...along with "The Missing Boy" this is one I keep humming and singing for days and days.
Just loved DC since 79, pal of Ian Curtis. Vini most under rated musician in UK since Ian
true.
Excellent....Underrated is Vini.....I've been listening for over 40 years....has to be a big influence on Marr, Squier, Butler etc....
So ingenious and so original.
Amazing..simply amazing
Excellent stuff !
Pure genius!
How did I miss this?
But you found it.
So thanks God for the RUclips.
