Strange Kind of Love the album is easily one of the greats of the 1980s, or any decade for that matter

In my humble opinion, they were the most underrated band of all time. They never got the level of success they deserved.

The record company threw money at them, but , sadly no love . They squandered a truly talented band for purely commercial reasons . I worked with Bobby the bass player . He produced a single for my band The Painted Word ( U2 ,s Mother label ) , and indeed know James and Douglas , witnessed a lot of the early Glasgow gigs and they were just phenomenal , James is spot on about the ,so called record industry , happily now defunct due to GREED x x x

Agreed Mr. Fireson..,

Totally agree with all the creditworthy opinions. James Grant has a gift for expressing mood through music and his intelligent lyricism is gifted in expressing the dynamics of relationship. Strange kind of love is an all time favourite of mine. Seen him several times and his solo work is unmatched in expressing the highs and lows of love with exceptional pathos.

Hallelujah man, Jocelyn Square, River of People incredible songs...I'm one of the few people that listen them in Italy and I'm proud of it...

The guitarist in the white shirt is now my college lecturer this is so cool

Love this band. Such great musicianship. Another killer hand from Scotland. They write such a great songs. Should have been MASSIVE!!

RIP Bobby Patterson, quite a decent bass player indeed.

I don’t want people to know about them!🤣😂😅 they’re too good to give away!

this band had a sound that is instantly recognisable - the guitar lines are so memorable, the lead vocal and distorted guitar together ... songs so superbly arranged - timeless!

A seriously underrated band. "Shape of Things to Come" has to be one of the most beautiful, anguished love songs I've ever heard and "Scapegoat" is a riotous . Magnificent talent.

that's true!!!

I saw this band in 1989 at the Shaw Theatre in London. They were fantastic. Strange Kind of Love is one of my favourite albums of all time and James Grant's guitaring was just perfect for these songs!!!!!!

Love to you Bobby………today and always. From Australia. ❤️🇦🇺❤️👏🤝👍🤫

When I look at Love&Money I see pure talent. Great great music

Shape Of Things To Come is probably one of my favourite songs of all time

River of People 00:00 Up Escalator 04:46 Hallelujah Man 09:30 The Shape of Things to Come 13:34 Wanderlust 20:25 Looking for Angeline 24:10 Jocelyn Square 28:48 Love & Money 33:20

Wow they were criminally unknown. Brilliant live performance.

I associate a large part of my youth with the music of Love and Money and I wouldn't want to miss this memory!

"river of people" reminds me of curiosity killed the cat "up escelator"reminds me of inxs "scapegoat"reminds me of level 42, so this band is so very very under rated, that someone should kick the manager they had, because this band should have made it big! such a shame it never happend!

This video meant everything to me in the 90s;. On VHS. I had no idea other people knew about it, or that it had a life beyond that.

I loved that band ....still do

I remember watching this when it was first broadcast. I videoed it too and watched it over and over. Was a lifelong Love and Money fan ever since.

Cowboy mouth Douglas aka mackey i call him him and my uncle.. lead singer from hip sway Dougie on drums .. anyway popped up on my fb .. yesterday there new song its good i was born 19.87 so was around these guys never new they were famous used to let me stand with my plastic red guitar 🎸 like i was jamming i must have been 3. Wasn't untill i got older relized 😮 they guys were famous.. roddy frame aztec camera he was a talented man no ego just quite witty .. but wasn't untill i was in my 20s i new he was famous. . Well as in world wide known .. just thought he was guy from ek that was good on guitar like most of the people i grew up around .. but yeah Cowboy mouth check them out ❤

What a great low end these songs have! and one pure and natural singer/lead guitarist.

My fantastic drum teacher there David Watson. Happiest days of my life .

I remember watching this performance on tv. I’d never heard of them before. Still listen to them regularly on my iPod. Love the guitar playing 👌 great songwriting

Great post! Love and Money was my first concert on December 23rd, 1988. They were supported by Texas, who were just about to release I Don't Want a Lover. Such a great music scene in Glasgow back then.

Always loved these guys since the 80s

God bless KZread. What a find seeing this gig.

Conor Mc Gowan I agree. I remember buying their debut album after seeing the video for Candybar Express. The funky bass lines and crunching guitars with the smooth vocals just works! Similar to another favorite band INXS, but more sophisticated. Curiosity Killed The Cat fits in the same pocket for me as well. The smooth sound of sophisticated pop with great production was unfortunately music to good for US radio and shamelessly fell by the way side. The British ear for music then was for wider and the world great bands like this one! Wish they were still here.

Great band. Sounds so fresh even today.

One of the best and most underrated of bands to come out of Glasgow. Jocelyn Square and Strange Kind of Love?? Absolute classics

. . . cool band for this time . . . . top sound . . always enjoyed listening to them during my downtime after sports, would still work today .

love those guys, incredible voice, big big artist !!!!!!

So much memories. I love this group. Will put that in my ipad and will enjoy watching during long flights.

Génial. je me délecte toujours de ce groupe... éphémère... Quel dommage car ils avaient vraiment un style à part...

Always loved these single the 80s👍🏾

Fantastic presentation

So glad I found this, what a flawless performance by an amazing band

I was 17 and I loved em. And Hipsway.

1) River of People, 2) Up Escalator, 3) Hallelujah Man, 4) The Shape of Things to Come,... 5) Wanderlust, 6) Looking for Angeline, 7) Jocelyn Square, 8) Love & Money.

Great footage. Reminds me of my misspent youth in Drumchapel! Still love this band.

fantastic band, i have great memories of playing them in sydney as i drove around the beaches. they should have been massive. i hope they get a boxed set release soon.

I saw them live in London when Strange Kind of Love came out and thought they were amazing. The album should’ve been massive. Comsat Angels was another band I loved who never really ‘made it.’ But the 80s and 90s were so much about image, luck and the discretion of record companies only interested in shifting units. Now it’s more democratic but probably harder to make money.

Yes I also loved the Comsat Angels, especially Land, 7 Day Weekend and Chasing Shadows. I know most prefer their earlier, darker music but I think they got better later on - they wrote some truly great songs.

A great band... Strange kind of love CD is a must have. Don't have it? what are you waiting? There are not that many albums with almost all songs deserving to go in the top 10 1st places of the hit parade. (Which they did not achieved. Never understood why...). Great to have this live performance.

'SUPERB', James!!!💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

I wish I'd seen them live when this album was out. I saw them support Simply Red at the end of '86 but they weren't as refined as on this tour/performance. Great band. Very underrated.

Saw them back in the day. Great live band. Always felt they would have been better off trying to break America as they had a trans-atlantic sound.

God..... absolutely amazing !!! I can't tell which one is more impressive - his voice or playin the guitar..... I'm a huge rock fan and this is one of the best bands I've EVER heard.. Also - it's one in a million to hear live performance being much better than the original.As many people pointed - they should have been enormously big.....

Great band,even the rhythm guitarist is brilliant....THANKS FOR POSTING THIS BY THE WAY
