@@lordharry423 Agreed, do you have a link to download it from someplace like Google Drive? I also recall there being a cut of the NOTB video that’s just the band, but I haven’t seen that in forever.
@@lordharry423 Hey! So I recently came across someone else that also uploaded The Trooper video with just the band, so I was able to save that one. Would you happen to have any of the other first versions of IM videos? Number of the Beast, Aces High, and I believe Wasted Years had a band-only video too. Thanks for getting back to me!
The lyrics of "The Butcher + Fast Eddie" are arguably a brilliant summation of 'genuine hard' blokes vs pissweak cunts. Brilliant story within that one song. Super fucking rare footage - 'Angry' actually drilled off his two front pearlers, no shit, that's fact. 'The Tatts' are in Australia's DNA, more so than AC/DC, RT are 100% Australian born !! Brilliant short video - short n sweet.
Wow. Great doc. Although I preferred the Mick Cocks era Tatts, they had a few good songs afterwards. The advertisements are an interesting glimpse into another era, as well as another country, as I am American and always wanted to visit Oz, especially during the 80s. Never happened, but this documentary is a cool peek at how things were back then.
The Australian music industry never woke up to Rose Tattoo. Rose Tattoo, on the otherhand, woke up to the Australian music industry and gave them the finger!
Good mini doco, never seen before, thanks for downloading( and great ads!). Always good to see a few more snippets of the great John Meyer on Guitar also.
@@vjenkins6815 correct! The sound is a bit fatter than the second album Assaut & Battery. Angry gives really all he has in the first album, the apex is Astra Wally. In this video Michael Cocks is replaced by Chris Turner on RNR Outlaw, which is too bad. Noone will have that right hand downstroke strumming anymore...They re- recorded new versions of RNR Outlaw, Remedy and Astra Wally, but without Cocks, the rythm guitar sounds weak, though creative. Pritchard has a very sharp and huge sound and that's great.
Understood. My favorite is Assault and Battery. Maybe because Mick Cocks wrote half of it (the music, anyway). I think Peter Wells wrote the music to Manzil Madness, Magnum Maid, and a couple others, but Mick wrote the music to Out of this Place, Suicide City, Let It go..... And the stories in the songs.... But it's hard to rate one against the other, really. The first album definitely was the shot across the bow. I remember playing it for a buddy of mine back then, a guy who'd never heard of the Tatts, and as soon as he heard the first few riffs to Rock N Roll Outlaw he turns to me and says "Fuck! That's rock and roll!" No kidding...
