Not sure how this video has managed to evade me for so long, but I haven't stopped watching it since discovering it yesterday. absolutely awesome, wish we had bands like this these days!

Mark Day is one my favourite guitarists ever, i was listening to Slayer and Metallica back in them days until I heard this shit, blew me away and turned me on to new sounds. I love his style.

Martin Hannet (their first producer) got so frustrated with Mark Day's playing that he brought in an expert guitarist to try to teach Day some basic rules of guitar playing, but the expert flat-out refused to teach him, saying, "This guy doesn't have a clue what he's doing, but it's absolutely wonderful!"

@@derkeheath5172 Close, but not quite. Tony Wilson wanted Vini Reilly to produce their first album [John Cale ultimately did it. Hannett produced Bummed]. So Vini went to see the band, but didn't like them and called them "scumbags" and "the worst kind of bastards". This is Vini's quote about Mark Day: "That guitarist, you know what Tony [Wilson], he has no idea how to play guitar, no idea what he's doing at all. That's the strange thing, because what he is doing, or rather what he's trying to do, is potentially the most inventive stuff that anyone has played for at least ten years."

@@iker8010 I wasn't having a go at Mark Day. Only quoting what Vini Reilly [another exceptional guitarist] said about him. I think Day is criminally underrated. He's rarely mentioned in the pantheon of great Mancunian guitarists, like Marr and Squire frequently are. But he's their equal in my eyes and I've been a Mondays fan since 1986 when I first saw them supporting New Order.

I didn't expect Mark Day to be playing a Mesa/Boogie! It must have been loud as hell. Great tone and great playing. This is better than the album version.

I remember watching this and was instantly obsessed with the Mondays

what a great band getting right into it.

When I saw this on TV it changed my life it was an epiphany. There were no pretensions about the Mondays and they wore street clothes and played fucked up funky tunes you could dance to stoned

Happy Xmas 2023....what a tune RIP PAUL RYDER

I was about to link a few videos and message my brother with the same point (but couldnt be arsed)... then I saw what you wrote. Simply put, its not what Mark Day plays, but how he knows what to play in order to contribute to the sound as a whole ... okay many people know how to do that .. but when the music i.e. the happy mondays, cuts across so many genres, to do that is a genuine art. It is an art that doesnt conform to what a guitarist ought to be doing, so it goes completely unnoticed.

Bez, easiest and best job description EVER : )

Agreed; it was Mark Day's rolling house-music influenced rhythms that defined the Monday's sound.

rest in peace Horse your Bass was massively underrated so long dude!!

the boys at their best. Was it really that long ago. The interplay between Shaun and Bez is great. The band was kicking.

RIP Paul Ryder legend

Vividly remember seeing this and being blown away!

Always been one of my favorite music videos.

Too much class for this world. Proof that great music doesn't need more than a great performance.

I thought when I saw the Roses do Waterfall on this show was epic!! as good as that was, this just has more of a edge! Modays always had that edge over Roses, both great!

the Mondays were tight as a unit,and underrated musically-live they were either amazing or a total catastrophe-never in the middle

i keep replaying this tune over and over lol

you just dont get tv like this these days!

Oh that guitar . . . those rythymns. Unique!!!

great tune and what a performance,Bez in top form.

Saw this lot support James at the Astoria in 1988 - what a gig. I went to the bar as soon as they came offstage and within minutes Shaun was at the bar buying a drink

1 of my all time fav tv appearance by the Mondays...actually 1 of my fav live tunes too!!!

impressive guitaring lads.two nutcases on their stage.Happy Mondays.and we love them.amazing sounds.

Great song,legendary album and band and an amazing movie,eh? Those were the days. Its up to us old geezers to pass the music on to our kids...

great watching this they really are one of a kind these guys bez has charisma you could not have the mondays without him.

Wonderful, best mondays performance i've ever seen.

Better than the studio version for me, one of the best live songs ive ever heard. That ringing guitar does remind me of a Fall song though, I can't think which one and its doing my head in

it's so brilliant and there is nothing else to say about it

This song is one of my top 10. To be play at my funeral 👍👍

Bez..feeling the groove as usual, which was a performance in itself.Class.

It's sad what rock success does to people. Shaun looks so bloody good in this video. Lean, keen, nicely dressed, sharp haircut. Look what happened to him. If they'd only had local success he'd probably have looked a sight better now and not become a joke the way he did in the 90s. Also the thing of shooting them in a plain white studio is brilliant.

LOL Bez looks like one of those old movies from WW1 of someone with shell shock. What a great video! Thank you for posting!! ;]]

People forget just how good the Mondays were live. Damn fucking good is the answer

Great stuff. Love the Mondaze

One of the best and most memorable performances. Prime example on the band's songwriting and musical skill. Ryder and Bez were quite the duo. :-)

One of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time - up there with the Ramones and'll be listened to by kids for the next 100 years.

That made me happy.

This sounds like something different bands 🎉 all day ☮️😎 af💯🔥

its a 12 bar blues underneath!! love it!
