"blue-ue will calm my hys-ter-ia". Join Hands is a neglected record. Icon is a masterpiece.

fuck, they were amazing live

Join Hands...superb album!

They were never better than this.

she is beautiful the cure and siouxsie and the banshees one of my favorites bands

Oh man, that guitar intro! To me it's as much a timeless intro as "Smoke on the Water".

This always runs through my head with my annual checkup.God,I love this woman.

A gem from Join Hands #3 amazing classic!

I love McGeoch, but John McKay is also an amazing guitarist. I think leaving the Banshees must be the worst mistake of his life.

A "very" earlier and punkier version of such a beautiful song.

Totally agree. McGeoch was definitely a more versatile guitarist with a strong grasp of melodic structure, but I much prefer McKay's work with the Banshees because he had a very original sound. I don't think the Banshees were ever quite as good again, partly because of their increasingly "kitchen sink" approach to arrangements.

their lyrics were awesome as well as music highly intelligent stuff

wow why the fucks this only got 240 views!? that sucks.......this is so awesome

Johnny the boy in full effect. As Warminator says below, how the fuck did JM get those sounds? Immortal shit.

@strawberrygirrl yeah i love the guitar part and sound , and the vocals of course : my favourite banshees song.

🖤

massively influential

Thanks again, Mr Raffles! My favourite track from Join Hands... I used to listen to the four songs, Regal Zone, Placebo Effect, Icon and Premature Burial - over & over again in my youth. I'm still scarred! Cheers!

my 1st ever gig was the Banshees age 13 in 1978 about a month before the debut album & the 2nd time I saw them was on the Join Hands tour with the Cure as support brilliant Band / times.

Nice one. Everytime at this time of the year i feel compelled to listen to join hands. Morris playes like a clockwork and i always ask myself how Mc. Kay got those sounds out of his guitar.

Thank you!!! I have never seen this.

Never seen this one before. Great song. Wonderful!

I dont understand whats keeping Siouxsie from a triumphant return to Coachella & reclaiming her throne as Queen of Alternative Rock??? Grace Jones, Deb Harry, Exene, & even Clare Grogan still rockin' it .........

Fantastic to hear this, thank you loads for the upload :-)

awesome upload. Morris and McKay. Though I always understood the hate between them and Susie & Steve, I've always seriously dug Join Hands. Maybe the best of Banshees albums. Certainly the A-side was the zenith.

One of the best Banshee video, I have the whole Follies performance on DVD and I must say that the quality is almost the same that this one on youtube :(

John McKay was a brilliant guitarist for the Banshees, although I have to say McGeoch (and Budgie) brought a diversity and colour that weren't there before.

the guitar is so edgy. so sad. fucking amazing.

the original and best line up, as good as Mcgeoch and budgie were kenny and john were the sound of the banshees.

Molt be 👍

Even if that is true. The Banshees evolved far beyond punk rock.

oh dadswizz go back to eating the cheese whizz ;)

Ma era tutta dragata o è stonata perchè è dal vivo? O_O Lol

Are there actually people who thinks the banshees are posers? WTF.
