Excellent upload, TravisBickle1963! This album is so fuckin' old. When Ian Astbury and Co. babysat Methuselah! Great memories of the "Love" lp! I have the Omnibus collection; lots of rarities and live tracks.

Damn, that about blew my head off! Killer show! I remember when Love came out thinking these guys were the perfect blend of Goth darkness, psychedelic reverb and new wave cool. Great moment in time.

Hell yes!! I caught this tour in Dallas in early 86 and they were shit-hot. It was the first show I ever saw without adult supervision. I’m still excited about it almost 35 years and a few thousand shows later.

Saw them twice , Rock city notts and Victoria Hall stoke, these were the bollcks

Billy giving the crowd a good sonic beating with no accompaniment (no second guitarist or keyboard) on this heavy ass song; the punkers digging it fully. What a f'n bad ass. Never got to see them live back in the day but can only imagine smell of sweat and loss of hearing (one too many Ramones shows myself).

The Phoenix is still the best rock track and live just mind blowing...love it thanks for posting....

Oh I mean it's class but the likes of God zoo, Horse Nation are more Banging than Revolution

All my beautiful friends they've all gone away Like the waves they flow and they and die . . . Still one of my fav Lyrics

I love the song "Revolution". Beautiful performance

Gretsch guitar+ boss pedals. What a fantastic sound!

Back again 2022 and still there is no other live track on You Tube that is as awesome as Phoenix. Voodoo Child by Hendrix is the only thing close.

Like the heat from a thousand suns that burns on Rising ever higher A phoenix from a pyre My eternal desire

Kin wicked great band

Revolution, I've heard it so many times through the years that I can't hear it anymore. Numb. But Phoenix is a very different story, wow, what a track! And that extraterrestrial sound Duffy is getting out of that Gretch is just incredible, euphoric! Too bad the audio portion on this performance is so poor. Duffy's pomp, pure Rock n Roll! Sure wish I coulda been there!

Is realy beautifull Ian i love ❤

l love this video. It is absolutely fabulous. I love Ian's voice. He is absolutely mesmerizing. It is hard to take your eyes off of him. Billy and Jamie are magical and I love their sound is so loud. I am ready to start dancing around in my room!!

Such great tracks.

This is exactly what the band looked like when I first saw them at the Hollywood Palladium April 26th, 1986! -- Ian had sprained his ankle the night before at the show in San Diego so he basically stood almost motionless the entire set propped up by his mic stand and I'm sure plenty of opiates to kill the pain. Needless to say it was an incredible show as Ian seemed all that much more prophetic.

I saw them in Dallas, same tour, a week or two earlier than the LA shows. I guess, and they were shit-hot. 34 years and a few thousand shows later, still one of the best I’ve *ever* seen. Anyone who thinks the 80s sucked wasn’t there, or they weren’t in the right places, because this was my 80s, and it was fabulous

i was into Iron Maiden, Ac/Dc, Ted Nugent and Queen...at this time in highschool...I wish i knew about these guys then...it would have changed my life....seriously

I love this song. Ian is beautiful

Parabéns. Vc tem bom gosto. Tenho 55 a os e ouço The Cult deste dos anos 80, quando ainda se chamavam Southern Death Cult depois Death Cult e então The Cult. Ian sempre foi e será meu menino lindo. The Cult faz parte da minha vida. Fico feliz em uma jovem ouvindo música de qualidade

Great the days Astbury would since the actual tune, and Duffy on fire here

Absolutely amazing. What a shame that, less than two years later, they'd gone down the tubes rather than being on "The Tube".

The Cult at their creative peak......superb.

awesome!

I miss this Cult.

Kiss kiss..Thanks Foreverything💎💘

they were pretty good, never heard them before.

I was 15 years old when Love tour came to town ,,,the joint was lifting.👍

Thanks for this, the Cult at their best before some that convinced them Rick Tosser Rubin half@$$ing it and sounding like a pub-cover of AC-DC was the way to crack America. Just beautiful.

I remember this at the time and it blew me away and led to my band covering ''Phoenix". Ian Astbury's fantastic stage presence and Billy Duffy's incredible guitar sound, playing that beautiful Gretsch. They had a great look then too - dark psychedelic gothy look. Shame they went and ruined it by trying to become a third rate Guns'n'Roses...

They were trying to be the second coming of *second rate* Led Zeppelin, seeing as the Electric album was recorded with Steve Brown (Love) and then scrapped ("The Manor Sessions"), only to be re-recorded and recooked / produced by Rick Rubin of Beastie Boys Zepp-sampling fame in late 86. Guns & Roses didn't boom until well after Electric and the creative spark demise of The Cult. They self-imploded when they decided they were purely a rock band and left their London-Soho psychedelic roots to rot for the torn jeans, tow-truck driver hair and beer by the keg loads.

Only these two songs were broadcast but the main band would often play a few more songs for the studio audience, after the credits had rolled for the show. Sometimes these extra tracks were leaked (as with The Cults earlier performance from 1984, or The Mission from 1987) but sadly, I've never seen any further Cult tracks from this episode of The Tube. :-(

O bagulho e muito doido.

Hi ! I contacted trough your comments but maybe under a different account. I checked Circle Dark Room's blogpost but none of his links work for The Cult related content anymore. Would you still have the bootleg DVD for this show ? Or is it lost ?
