I thought Astbury was a god: the hair, the ribbons, the sweatbands, the chicken dance and the Death Cult EP. A magic time of youth

The chicken dance, is that what you called it. i always thought he was just trying to emulate Indigenous North American dances.

Ian's voice was SO clean and strong at that time!

They really were the best band in the world at this time!

1984 -1986 my favorite era of this band.

Agree 💯

Even then, you could tell that Billy's influences were split between punk, what was going on at the time, and his earlier love of blues and rock bands like Free. As much as I love many other bands from the time, Billy's guitar just shone so brightly. Let's not leave Jamie out, though; such a fantastic bass player.

When they decide to do a farewell tour, they better damn well play this underrated & sadly overlooked song as an encore (as they do here!). Remember, this is originally a Southern Death Cult song but The Cult version R😎CKS BALLS OUT! 👊😎🎸

Yeah man,I've been watching this since the early eighties,and the band,especially Jamie,(as a part time bassist,I would say that)is first class,,in fact,as Ian would say,"FUCKIN EXCELLENT"

Three words - absolutely mind blowing

Same here......Either "MOYA" or "Spiritwalker". I would much rather hear the old stuff but hearing the whole LOVE album was BRILLIANT!!

This song still kicks you know what thank you ian and billy!🤘

one of my absolute guilty pleasures - i LOVE this song

This is one of The Cults' finest moments.The way Astbury expletes "fuck em all ", just for one example. Stay Safe y'all.

Best part is when Ian opens the note and gets bubble gum or something all over his hand. The second best part is the exceptional bass playing. It's almost being played like a 6 string guitar. So original and extremely talented.

It was a fans note requesting the band aid off of his right thumb, YUK! He chucks the note down and peels off the band aid and passes it to the fan for a keepsake of Ian. Throughout the rest of the song he licks the blood off his unhealed wound and wipes his thumb down his face. He later picks up and pockets the fans note for his own keepsake. I wonder if he still had that note today, or if the fan still still has the soiled band aid today. YUK!

I agree with you. The Cult lost an integral part of their sound when they booted Nigel Preston and tried to replace the beat with Matt Sorum, who is more of a good timekeeper than a drummer.

I remember listening to this live album non stop at the time. Then I went with a bunch of mates to see them in Norwich in 1985, a month or so before they released 'She Sells Sanctuary'. I honestly thought they were the best thing I'd ever seen or heard, I thought Billy was a magician on that guitar. Great days :)

This is so good...!! Re-discovering their really old stuff, and loving it!

Monumental performance period. 💗

Billy Duffy up there with the best guitarists there's ever been.

Have listened to a lot of Cult over the years and still love this. Rock on.

For the record, I'm the guy screaming "MOYA!!" at every Cult show in the New England area. Definitely one of their best songs. Pure Cult.

I remember buying the Dreamtime Live LP then ordering the VHS of the concert. My dad saying, "What a goddamn creep" only made me like it the more! Wish I still had the video...

Stunning performance. Their best lineup, IMHO.

THANKS!!!!! It bugs me to ANNOYANCE how this BRILLIANT BAND are almost impossible to buy in British shops. The box set, including ALL the Manor Sessions, is deleted, or only available across the water, or £200 online via Amazon etc...WTF??

Just listen to the heart and emotion. You'll not find any of this in them crappy Now That's What I Call " Music" albums. Think we've all been robbed.

I could tell it was Jamie on bass by his movements. A pretty cool, reliable bassist. When he got fed up and left, the band were not the same to me. Sort of like Alan Wilder leaving Depeche Mode.

Ovaj VHS koncert kupio sam u Londonu 1986 i jos uvek imam tu kasetu . Fenomenalan koncert ove odlicne grupe ! VHS je placen 19.99 funti , ali u to vreme mi nije bilo skupo !

"The kids of the Coca-Cola nation Are too doped up to realize That time is running out Nagasaki's crying out..." amazing song!!

Girl in audience to friend: "Quick! Give me your pen and a piece of Paper!!" "CaN I PlEaSe HaVe YoUr BaNdAiD??!?"

The Cult ❤ best band EVER bar none! Consistently unique and ahead of their time IMHO! Oh and Ian so beautiful and talented! His smile, his beautiful face 😍 I absolutely adore this man 😍

Wow ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️this will never happen again

My favorite early Cult tune - brought over from Southern Death Cult. So many influences you can hear but also original.

YES!!!!...MOYA..great sound!!!💖

Someone needs to get the original film version of the concert and enhance it

Such a great version of the Southern Death Cult original. Nigel's drumming, Jamie's tight bass playing and Billy's powerful guitar work give the song so much more urgency. Brilliant performance from Ian too. "Time for bed everybody"

Great gig I remember it well I was 17 years old and it was the 2nd time I'd seen them live 👍

One word.........CLASS

Kasota! Kasota Kasota!

I truly love this!

The Cult are great, but Moya is one of the best!

Took me ages to get a copy of this live album, and it was well worth the wait!!! Still as good as ever. Listen to there last album "Born into this" It rocks!!!

Awesome . Takes me back to when i saw them on this tour . Well done everybody .

Love this song. And Bad Bones

1988 cruising around Swartz Creek in my piece of shit truck jamming this, good times.

A very underrated band ... I very much enjoyed how they evolved ...☠

Great sound!

Ian Astbury was the idol of my later teens. However, I prefer having him singing with a British accent.

I’m like, extraordinary voice IAN🙏Culte is CULT 💋Great generation, my generation👋😹

I think I saw them at "The Seaside Festival,La PANNE,BELGIQUE" with the Cameleons,... ,and The Cure to finished this Beautiful Day.But don't ask me the Year,...

Oddly enough they are going to be doing a tour soon where they will play the whole Love record in it's entireity. Granted it's a bit more straight ahead rock than the Death Cult & Dreamtime stuff but still be great to hear the likes of Brother Wolf/Sister Moon & Big Neon Glitter for the first time in many years.

this is class thanks 2 every last 1 of u for uploading this concert this is how good the cult was b4 they became a led zepplin tribute band

Great live version!

I would buy a DVD of this concert and hang it on the wall

better than original

I bought cassette *VHS* in London at the *HMV store* 1986

It's not been available for years, I bought mine when the Dreamtime album came out in 1984, but I got the 'Gimmick' clip from the Canadian version that came out in the late 90s, which had the full set on. The original version didn't have that song on it. You see them crop up on Ebay from time to time.

I used to have the Dreamtime Cassette and the CD but foolishly threw the cassette out when i was clearing my parents flat out. If i remember correctly the cassette had the majority of this concert at the Lyceum on the B side. I also had the video of this concert. To this day that concert and W.A.S.P's Live In The Raw (Recorded in 84 at the Lyceum) remain my 2 favourite concert videos. These older style venues are much better for sound than modern soulless arena's

The kids of a coca-cola nation, too doped up to realize...This is such an excellent concert from their most interesting period. Plus Nigel shreds on drums. This needs to be released on DVD!!!

Freak of JOY! God I love this tuna!

And yes, the Canadian VHS contained a CD copy of the audio. The sound on the VHS is pretty poor because it was recorded without a HiFi track. Which is stupid. But you could get that CD/VHS set, pull the VHS video and CD audio to a computer, sync up the better-sounding audio to the picture, and then make a DVD of that. Pretty big pain in the arse to properly watch one of the best recoded gigs, ever! BTW the vinyl and cassette were each originally sold for $1.99 (abridged concert version.)

Moyà and spiritwalker the Cult at there best 🎸🎸

Perfection.

Brilliant 👏 👏 👏 👏

dig dig dig dug! I like that game and I dig this song!

Kinda like a lot of these older/rare CULT songs seem better today, than the new songs...like Hidden City isn't very good compared to the rare/cult classic's in my veiw...they lack really good rhythm & back bone, that most of the first albums & songs have...dig it ? Cool rock on Cult fans...

@Kelly14UK There's no offcial dvd of the show. I've got it on VHS but it's a bit pish quality. Might be someone who's transferred it. You can get the Lyceum live audio on itunes for £7.99. Decent quality.

hey ? Ithink ian got rid of sdc to form the cult?

It's John Curd, the gig promoter.

Lmao!!!!))) I was playing around with that part on my mac computer using garage band...lol...I was dubbing my voice in ,,,saying "turn those mother fucking house lights offff!!!!! ".. heee heeeee heeee............good stuff! Great song! Great Band!

Pity Astbury didn’t stick with the original Southern Death Cult lineup. Abandoned them too soon.
