It's nice to see and hear the other two for a change, aldo it would've been great if Johnny and Jerry where there since there's not too much interview material from them. And yes, I agree with Waldo being underrated, I love his music and bands (hope they come to NL soon..) By the way, lots of great bands are underrated in my book. Sometimes unbelievably so.. There's so many great bands from the past who remained cult/underground, (and I love them for it too..) I rather see a favourite band in a club environment then in a big stadium. More intimacy. But I think if Thunders would've got a lot of fame and fortune, he probably wouldn't/couldn't handle that, (like a lot of heavy drug users) There's lots of bands who crashed and burned in the end because of all that crap. I think I would. *Waldo will manage though...* PS: RIP Billy :(
Every video I've seen of the Heartbreakers I can't take my eyes off of Walter. He's got great stage presence. When I had a second hand tape with Lamf I thought it was just Johnny singing & playing guitar. I didn't know about Walter until RU-vid. Very underrated
@@sandrabranlund4251 hey Sandra. Jac here. Just saw this. I have a copy but its not edited. Never saw a finished one if there is. I would approve a release if done properly. Ill get in touch privately. Would be nice to see the original Pirates represented. Say hi to Graham for me
Heroin chic, these guys are rockers!! And also if you can't see how worn to the bone these two are and how out of bed and into the interview these two went 🤣
I wish I could tell Walter how much he meant to the band. Honestly how memorable would The Heartbreakers be without Johnny being able to bounce off of him? Hell, the whole band….
@@nathanpenick959 It is but you have to remember these guys mixed a lot of shit together so he was probably on a cocktail of different things. In this video he looks(to me) like hes mainly on dope(heroin). If it was mainly meth his eyes and mannerisms specifically would be different.
Seriously.......a Heartbreakers without Thunders ????? Lure was far from a confident frontman... It's ofcourse cool to see an interview with him for a change.....thankfully without that friggin bowler hat ......
Paul. There actually is a Heartbreakers gig up on here without Johnny. It sounds ok actually but as you say Thunders was the focal point with the cool name who made two great albums with the Dolls and So Alone too. Ps When the Heartbreakers made a comeback in 1984 and they released the Dead our Alive VHS. I thought Waldo was wearing that hat because he'd gone bold. The fool. He should have left it off cos he still had his hair. It made them look older than they actually were.
@@baronsaturday2103 In Busted he talks about cotton being down, so I figured he was a commodities broker. I seen the Heartbreakers a bunch of times in the early '80's and really it was Lure and the Heartbreakers cause JT was totally out of it when I seen them.
