It was a great gig. It is fantastic to see Francis playing these IT BITES classics. One of the best bands Britain has produced. Brilliant emotional songs played by top level musicians. ❤️
This is a genuis piece of music that never dates and seeing them at Cambridge Corn Exchange was were the love affair began! They remind me is some abstract way to Be Bop Delux... maybe the jazz sensibilities!! Greatest melodies, playing and arrangements... technical and elegant with no fat on the bones! It's hard to believe anyone could pull off anything this complex live nevermind in the studio Congratulations Frankie and the boys Up thete with 'early'' YES and Genesis Pete Woodroffe Music UK
I don't have any time for the arguments about which latter day "version" of a classic band is better or best. I love the work and shows the other guys did with John Mitchell and they did no disservice to the legacy of the original line up. But there is something that makes this old guy shed a tear when I see Francis Dunnery, the legend, in full flight playing this particular song. As everyone else has commented so far: great voice, great playing and a heck of a lot of reminiscence of good times. The fluidity and ease with which he plays those precise and beautiful solos is just incredible to see in such detail. Thanks for posting. A wonderful musician who has made a wonderful difference to so many people's lives. Hope there's plenty more to come!
I`ve always have had the absolute conviction that IB was the last real gem in the rock music history. Videos like this confirms that this is 100% true. Thanks IB and FD for keeping the flame alive.
I was there,right at the front.Fantastic gig! I’d wanted to see them ever since 1987 when I first heard them. The guy filming on his phone was with the band in front of the railings. Let’s wait for the DVD
I was there at the front too, also standing next to a guy called Steve who had driven a long way, my first time seeing them too, out of this world, best gig I have been to!!
I saw it bites 7 million times at the london astoroa and others, i cried when they split up. Its fab to see this being performed live again. I bought 2 of the it bites albums with the other singer, but somehow the new music was lacking, it wasnt intricate, it just wasnt as good. Sorry.
Still fucking outstanding!!!!!!!

Did you ho here the other night by any chance?
Dunnery is always spot on, from the vocals to the solos, still flawless after all these years. Thanks for these videos
Been watching since the 80's …And WE are still here…We know that you (Frank) it means a lot… ☺… Why is the drummer asleep BTW?! 😳
So, so good to see FD playing live. The fact he's with FD's It Bites is just the best thing. Reminiscetastic.
tears in my eyes, no words, a fan from germany , love you all patriot people!
Hard to believe we ha e had Francis at 2 house concerts. Well done Francis
Worryingly I want this is my funeral song but presume lots of people will not get it ,and would rather get to the pub , Dam
It would make a BRILLIANT funeral song!!!! Thats one of the best ideas ever, its perfect!
Excellent, thank you for sharing !!
Never fails to knock me out!
Did un 89 at Cambridge Corn Exchange and here again

Thanks Francis

His 80's guitar has faded to a yellowish beautifull color. Great composer and musician
Fearless.....Tall Blonde Helicopter....killer as well....

Another sad example of immense talent set aside by the clueless British public in favour of chart music drudgery.
