- A clip of Magazine performing "Burst" live presumably sometime in 1978. Clip taken from a Granada TV special on Magazine and Buzzcocks called "B'dum B'dum", first aired in July 1978. Incredible performance!
I've made a playlist of the whole documentary with all the performance clips which is available here:

magazine is one of those bands that is just TOO good...flies right over most people's heads
One of the five greatest bands of the post-punk era. Devoto was the proto-Morrissey and here he shares a stage with a brilliant guitarist and fantastic bass player.
Drummer's not too shabby either!
and dave formula !!
I belong to that small legion of listeners who seem to always prefer the jewels whithin the album , to the 'hits'. BURST has been one of my all-time favourites by ANY band. It was love at first hearing.
Thankyou for delivering this version to us all.
Saw Magazine at Lancaster uni in 78 or 79 or was it 80, really cant remember, absolutely blew my mind, remember Barry Adamson kicking a spitting idiot full in the face and "bursting" his nose, he didnt even stop playing, seems like a lifetime ago. Real life is one of favourate albums of all time, shame they never hit that height with further material.
I am pleased to say I've seen Magazine, on their reunion tour of 2009 - but would have dearly loved to have seen them in 1977/78. 🖤
Transcendent and strange. I overlooked this one for too long...I love the way it builds.
Noticed again that the guitarist is overlooked, that is, not given any attention by the camera. I've seen this with a few other Magazine vids on RUclips. Poor John G.
john mcgeogh. brilliant
Amazing. Utterly absorbing.
Oh good, I didn't find a video of this song on RUclips before, and it's one of my favourite Magazine songs. You've made me happy.
Absolutely mesmerising!
He's so introverted on paper but behold a performance. He's downright talllllllllllllllll.
They're such a convincing live act!
Searing. Love the drumming on this too
burst will be played at my funeral.
Magic. Such memories. So alive. Such beauty. Fragile. Power. Sexy. Genius. Ahhhhhhhhhhhh
Great guitar solo!👌🏼
Brilliant brilliant track. Thank you.
Wow ... McGeoch with a Strat rather than the Yammy SG2000 .... rare stuff indeed!
Probably why the thing is screaming. Damn single coils! It's an SG-1000, by the way.
the north west of england in the late 70s was the place to be so many good bands around
Got to agree with you on that. I can't think of many UK guitarist from that new wave/ punk era who used Strats. the bloke in the UK Subs used one occasionally and the guitarist with Generation X and that's all I can think of. Strats were more common in American bands like Television (Richard Lloyd), Talking Heads (David Byrne, who also played a Mustang) and Blondie (Chris Stein).
Can't believe the cameraman thought Barry was doin gthe guitar solo.
Amazing! Thank you!
Wonderful song wonderful band.
Wow- this is exactly the song that kept me going through the same. This whole record is the soundtrack to that whole unfortunate period of my life- probably why I can't stand to listen to it much these days, ha.
Yeah, John's using a Fender Stratocaster on this. I saw him use the same guitar when Magazine played 'Give Me Everything'on the OGWT (A British TV music show). Most of the time in Magazine he used a Yamaha SG1000. I'm pretty sure that Martin Jackson ended up in Swing Out Sister a few years later.
amazing . you cant beat that.
What a great history of the music evolution
good song lisson to this song alot
all-time conquerors !!
Excellent
Grandiose!
heaviest tune Magazine laid out....metaphorically speaking!
one of the best bands ever from any genre of music - so sad that hardly anyone listened to them - just shows what a load of sheep the average person is - following the crowd. devoto epitomised his own "dont give a fuck" attitude by quitting music cos he couldn't make a decent living - sad also - but this is real life. music made in heaven by a music god
Love the mic. Aye Julian?
the best and most underated band ever see where Julian Cope got his inspiration for mike climbing on trampoline. If you are reading Howard why not reform for the hardcore fans with one more gig
@emt333sd... Funny, Cope jumped to mind when I saw Devoto mic climbing too. Terrific artists, both! : )
One of my fav songs if that means anything to anyone...
Does anyone know what model guitar McGeoch is playing here? To me, it looks like some kind of Fender, but I can't say which one.
THE MOST
Yeah, sounds better live. Great clip.
I didn't think much of this album before I heard it, I didn't expect much..... BOY WAS I WRONG.
Excellent song, I remember listening to it a lot after splitting up with a girlfriend.
I always thought Howard looked like Pee-Wee Herman lol
Punk came and then there was Magazine to change it all.
Заебись!!
Magazine is pretty great. But I was playing a lineup of them in my car while driving rideshare for money. and the song where he goes "I want to drug you and F**k you". I had it turned down a bit and the rider had headphones on. I mean that's the total Bill Cosby song right there.
I've always thought of Magazine as kind of a new wave Roxy music (not to diminish either band). Anybody else hear the connection?
Yes, they were both brilliant and impossible to categorize.

Victorian marionette....fuuuuuckme,seriously? Might as well call Bowie the proto PeeWee Herman.Frankly you've insulted both. Look, Howard Devoto was The Thin White Christ-Duke of Punk gone Goth that might've ripped off and feasted upon the head of whomever he felt like mantis-fucking unto sweet scarlet oblivion ,AND also a performer of unparalleled electric conductivity, with assassin delivery of genius lyrics,and a presence of gravity that is absolutely fascinating and sexually powerful. THE most gorgeous ugly thats been born, with the alarming glamour or persuasion of a vampiric sorcerer.Can you not see and feel this?
Watch Magazine do Motorcade (live) posted by councilestate-dont look away from his face.
Morrissey naturally was fascinated too, and did some emulation of H D.,and a cover,but Morissey is completely different beast of lyrical assassination and UTTeR genius.Probably the best lyricist in his time,I'd even say. Regarding H.D.,there's no replication or possibility of consistent emulation even...hes too damn weird. Peter Murphy is an example of a more accurate description of proto in this case. However,I really just jumped in to express-TRY TO EXPRESS-how much new love I have for this old Howard Devoto!I'm not picking on you-just joking really, because I have nobody who I can show H.D. that will receive him correctly.Very Difficult situation:(...What do you love the most sung by H.D.?You must be a fan from way back and I just found Magazine! ALL I recall was an unattractively weird video of a solo H.D. on Mtv in th eighties-I was 11 or so at th time..When I found these videos,I was BLOWN AWAY
Kimberly 269life 100% agree with you. Known them from the start [even had the 'Correct Use...' T-Shirt]
+Kimberly 269life Uuuugh. Did you write this desperate crap before or after the shotgun blast to the back of your brain? Just wondering.
Your inquiry is quite stupid. Perhaps you also wonder if those who drowned several weeks ago on that freighter in the hurricane are now chilly and hungry and writing a sternly worded letter to the Captain for embarking into the storm?If a shotgun had blasted my brain out the back of my skull,I would have been UNABLE TO LIVE,dx- much less post my awesomely funny comment, OBVIOUSLY. Apparently you are not intelligent enough to understand the essential functions that come to an immediate halt when ones brain is blown out the back of one's head.Try to keep learning things-just because you are no longer in school or never were doesn't mean LEARNING must fail to continue to occur in your brain,dxguy.
Kimberly 269life
Well, Captain Obvious, glad to hear that your brain is OK. You'll have to tell me more about the freighter that went down. Did Howard write a song about it? Or are we thinking about the Edmond Fitzgerald? They were very chilly... I'll write when my posts are less stupid. Or when your posts become less lurid and turgid.
dxguy Well, I can't possibly continue on with this when you use both lurid AND turgid. Was that your attempt to prove you did in fact go to some type of school? Your use of them together is SO turgidly lurid in itself...utterly ridiculous. And then-dxguy, did you actually try to blow my mind with a fucking Gordon Lightfoot reference!?!Lmfao Look, from here out I think I will establish a new rule: Mean haikus or insulting limericks, or why bother attempting to communicate with you? Something entertaining has to be gotten out of this for me or else I'll have to be done here. The words would have been completely acceptable in a mean haiku or limmerick by ANYONE'S standards:) You've been a disappointment up to now,although there WAS a glimmer of hope in the last post. I think you can do this,dxguy.
He's an intellectual ! Not a punk !
Melvyn Gingell maybe both!?!!
The only band that could be weirder than Blue oyster cult without trying.
Keep your silence to yourself....
