Loved watching these guys all over the North Shore during the 80's The Ladybug in Peabody, Jonathans in Salem etc etc. One of the best bands to come out of Boston and certainly the most underated.
I remember sneaking in the back door to Jonathan’s to see the Outlets and O-Positive so much good music back then and so many clubs o the North shore. Remember Grover’s in Beverly?
@@jon221998 I was in a band back in the 90s and got to open for the Neigborhoods there and Meet Dave Minehan who was and idol of mine back then. Used to love coming to the Fools at Grovers always a fun show
Bobby Marron was such a good frontman......the move at the end when he leans back and pulls the mike stand with him is subtle, yet so freakin' so cool !!
I was an Atlantics groupy! Followed them around all the music clubs in Boston. Thanks to Boston after Dark. Great live show band. Halloween at the Channel was Awesome.
Great Memories here. I was on a couple of dates with these guys just when they were exploding on the scene.We played in Hingham ,and onr other show in boston as a double bill. They were very fresh and original. ..good stuff.
jacks.....right next to 1001 mass av pinball. lucky are we who were 17 in 81 and lived in the clubs....not so much the channel...but you have to add the in sq mens bar ladies invited, jaspers, & the jumbo lounge,
whoever saw a lefty black beauty custom les paul with white binding and heft & weight , if he owns it still, sure would like a e-mail from him... Vid, is a great insite into boston local PUNK & glad I caught up with this... Was at Sub. Yard , one hour N. of BOSTON from 80 to 90... Miss WBCN as my MUSE for the best of LOCAL ROCK & the DJ's , who kept me in STITCHES , while keeping ALL in the PULSE of New England & Boston METRO... Bless all the BANDS of that TIME & SPACE - Amen P.S. is there NOW a station as GREAT as - WBCN ? ? ? P.S.S. - I have a cherry sunburst Les Paul Custom , that may have been made B 4 Paul McCartney's Lefty Les Paul ,... Mine is a Lefty Cherry Sunburst , with Weight and Heft... Told it MAY be a '64 model ... If so , it PREDATES Paul McCartney's...
for some reason, i think this might've been one of the first "punk" songs i ever heard other than the romantics (what i like about you) or the neighborhoods (the prettiest girl) i'm talking before the clash or elvis or the jam really hit the shores of the east coast... wow.. almost forgot about them!!! love it! thnx kevideo22..
Fuckin' love these guys!
The fact that they didn't break out is criminal. The world needs them now more than ever!
I saw them about 10 times live in around Boston. The good old days!
I remember this one on WBCN. So good!
These Guys and the Neighborhoods were to of the best bands of this era of Boston music scene
These guys were way ahead of their time. Rock on Paul !
Saw these cats at the Rat and Bunratty's ... Always thought they never received the credit they deserved.
The Atlantics were such a great live band. Always so tight.
Great memories... The Channel, The InnSquare Men's Bar, thanks for sharing!

@@googlechicken Grover’s was great. Saw ‘Til Tuesday there when they were still relatively unknown. It was a great time for Boston music

Literally my favorite band I love them so much
*Shame that the band didn't get a chance to release a second album , The Atlantics Rock!*
When I first them, I thought they were one of the best bands I had ever seen. After 30 years of watching bands, I haven't changed my opinion.
used to see them once a month at uncle sam at nantasket beach, great live band!!

one of the best tunes of the decade
RIP Bruce Wilkinson. Thank you for this video!
That key change around 3:25 is so nice 😎
Favorite Atlantics tune by far...

deptofrevz This ain't Punk!
lonely hearts? anyone? It was mentioned as a great solo in Guitar magazine
Bobby Marron is my uncle he is a cool guy
tell him I say hello.. from Jackie- OH! he will remember. thank you. He is a very coool guy.
Did he stay in the music business? Such a talented guy.
great band . saw them open for cheap trick at the calderone theater on long island 77 ? 78 ?
so sick
Please tell me there is more where this came from. This band is woefully underknown and appreciated.
bring back the Rat
genius
epic cigarette failure.
They sound like the Cars, with a touch of Devo.
Well they cant steal another bands name can they Atlantics are from Australia a surf band
Hey Fred
indie back in the 80's ????. I can see lots the british influence
LISTEN TO THAT BEAT PUNCHED OUT ON THE TOMS! GOD ROCK WAS SO COOL IN THE EIGHTIES IN BOSTON.
Probably my favorite Boston band from those days, maybe except for Willie Alexander...
Yeppers
or Real Kids, or Jonathan Richman
Willie is a legend.
Or Nervous Eaters and Real kids.
Punk fail hanging cig lol
