Nash The Slash Dead Man's Curve UK Video 1980 

I Remember it must have been 1982 my buddy and i guess we were fourteen he took white hockey tape from his bag wrapped up his face and ran around in a Toronto Subway yelling I'm Nash The Slash...Good Times

R.I.P. Nash the Slash, you were a true Canadian rocker. A pioneer of the electronic dance rock era through the 80s and 90s you were ahead of your time. Thanx for the inspiration, I'm getting my tux dry-cleaned and ready for Halloween.

Three simple moral messages in this song: 1) Cars are NOT toys; 2) Driving is NOT a game; 3) Public roads are NOT personal play areas. Anyone disagree? Hands on steering wheel = responsibility engaged.

I remember Nash supporting Gary Numan at concerts in England, he was totally awesome. I still play his albums

Rest easy Nash...A truly unique individual.

I do hope the documentary gets completed I met Nash at Sam the record man once , I still have my signed 45 picture sleeve and 45 record of Dead Man,s Curve R I P Nash the Slash ! 🎼🎼🎼🎻🎻🎻🎹🎹🎹🎹

Nash The Slash rises Again! Nash’s estate has re-issued Nash’s first 4 albums on vinyl and CD. And more on the way I believe. The vinyl is limited to 100. So get yours before they are gone. Albums have been re-mastered! The extremely RARE Hammersmith Holocaust Album is a special edition square-splatter vinyl. Last count is 22 left. Liner notes by Gary Newman. I received all 3 albums today in the mail. They look awesome! Can’t wait to open them and play them. I do have all of the original released albums I purchased a record stores back in the day. Children of the Night Special Edition is a Fog-Blue vinyl. It is a 2 LP set. The first album I purchased back in the late 80’s have been re-issued also. Dreams & Nightmares. This album is awesome! There are also available albums on regular vinyl also. Plus the CD’s and digital dowmloads. Listen in Safely. Nashtheslash.com on facebook also!

What a star. I was pleased I caught him live in the UK again in 2008, 28 years after first seeing him support Numan. RIP Nash.

R.I.P. Nash the Slash. Thanx for the memories, Nash Thank YOU for staying true. God Bless Much respect, Cheri

Love this classic cover... "Hey, Doc....how's my..'Vette?"

Bought my first vinyl Nash LP back in the late 70's. Dreams and Nightmares.That album blew me away.I read an article at that time in Heavy Metal Magazine for new music. That was while I was in W. Germany.I made it a point to pick up all that vinyl when I got back to the states.Other artists on LP like Robert Fripp,Eno, Gary Newman and a couple of others. "The Chase" is my favorite.

Rest In Peace Nash the slash. Yes the amazing performer that created great music that I enjoyed, since I was younger. Yes he will be missed. :( :( :(

Truly unequaled & irreplaceable. RIP.

In 2020, Nash would have just been some dude in line at the grocery store. With a tophat.

RIP Nash the Slash. I remember seeing this video on Countdown here in Australia in early 1981. I was into the Residents at the time & my younger brother when he saw this video said : 'He doesn't want anyone to know who he is, either!'.

Nash a amazing guy

Nash The Slash was one crazy Canadian, but loved a lot of his music, especially when he returned to Toronto with the group FM.

RIP. you and FM rocked my world in the 70's (Still do!)

Yeah...really is a shame that he passed away. A real Canadian Ace!

I'm happy someone finally put this on. Thanks

I use too drink with Nash many times in Niagara falls and st Catharines many times. Ben was cool

Still outstanding !!! Nash is a true legend !!! Thanx for sharing !! Best Regards !!

awesome

Absolutely splendid.

RIP Nash (Jeff) we'll miss you... :-(

Im A big Jan and Dean fan and love this rocking remake ...hey doc hows my vette

Great cover version

All we had back then. videotape and talent.

Saw him and FM around town alot,Toronto.Saw Nash at the Masonic Temple on Halloween,that was cool.RIP Nash ,you were great!!👍👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦👍👍👍

Thanx for sharing !! NASH is really a very great artist !! No one can be found around, in these days ,to reach his level !!! Best Regards from STRONGPOINT

Sad to learn of his passing.....

RIP Nash

I saw him live once...early 80s..Cleveland Ohio....opened for Gary Nueman...

fantastic!!!!!

I saw Nash play with the Tubes many years ago.

RIP, Mr Slash.

One has to wonder what Jan and Dean made of this cover.... "But if I hadn't cut him off... it would have been ME over the edge and HE'D be singin' this song!" I for one, love it. Favourited.

superb pop at its craziest. one of the weirdest stars ever. superb!

Great.

Wrapped up for the Canadian cold, Nash rocks!

great music.

yup. for real. me and my friends saw him at Nags Head North...omgoodness so much fun...it was a much more innocent time...i think. also saw Toronto. and Carol Pope/Rough Trade...am i that old???

Reminds of Ken Carter as much as Men Without Hats and City Limits. Long live celluloid time travel.

The man!

I watched that interview you posted. The snippet appears to be a promo for the single release back in Canada. My thought here is it was shot after he made it back home from his UK visit. I was going to fix the audio/video timing, but my trial version of TMPGen MPEG Editor ran out before I got to this project. The sync looks like it off around 300-500ms.Not really noticable.Which is the norm after pulling these videos off tape,cleaning them up,changing to other formats back and forth.

Groovy Baby!! I Dig It!!

cover's simply good, but I find the video absolutely wonderful

R.I.P

You said it.

RIP Nash :(

R.I.P.

RIP Nash the Slash (Jeff Plewman)

We Have a Dead man's Curve @ Balsam Lake, & One crazy night after drinking, Smoking & Partying as Always, Back in the 70's, we headed out across Dead Man's Curve & My Girl @ the Time Judy, Almost put us in the Lake, I Guess It wasn't Our Time to Die!!! LOL Cheers everyone

this is truly origional rehashing

Absolutely fantastic to see this video!! Just wondering if anyone can help me out with the lyrics, during the part where he's talking he says, "Hey doc, hows my *****" what is that missing word as I cant work out what he says?? Cheers

www.indiegogo.com/projects/and-you-thought-you-were-normal#/ Please help support The Nash the Slash Documentary.

Hey Doc.........how's my 'Vette?

My paid version of TPMGen Plus is only good for VOB and MPEG2 coding which i used solely and exclusively for my home SVHS video to DVD I did in 2003. I really liked the TMPGen MPEG editor 2.0 Premium. Did a damn good job on the other videos I uploaded here before this Dead Man's Curve video.

a genius..

Everybody I Know has died there. Sounds like a cross between 'the beach boys' & 'cabaret voltaire' ..still groovy!

♫ ♥ ♫

Nash the Slash is dead. Long live Nash the Slash!

This video must have cost hundreds of dollars

Nash is on tour in the UK THIS MONTH - NOVEMBER 2008!!!! Contact me if you can't find the dates and details via Google!!

I saw in Stockholm some years ago, playing fiddle and sang.. Quite bizarre..

Great question. Since he retired recently and didn't leave any contact info on his website (also the guestbook is gone), you may get a message through the un-official Nash the Slash website. Nash 200% backs this site and I believe he is still in contact with him. Give it try. Nothing to loose. nashtheslash.co.nr

Sad boosh. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/nash-the-slash-a-k-a-jeff-plewman-dead-at-66-1.2640133 I learned about him In 1979 when he played a Sold Out gig at the Princess Theatre. (Thanks Peter.) And he gave that full house one serious rock and roll show. Didn't he Pete? He played my town again about ten years later for around a dozen people at a dive called the Bevery Crest, and only me and the three folks I was with cared he was playing...to the Other he was just distracting from the bar pool and the shitty beer. Small Town Apathy. What can you do? And he gave we happy four one serious rock and roll show. He tuned us to a digital signal in an analog age. He was Important in building the future that destroyed him. Support live music. Go to gigs. Buy their t-shirts and posters and tote bags and time share offers or maybe just give them money because you feel guilty about something you can't quite put your finger on...like when you blank a homeless guy you gave change to once...a long time ago. Share music but reward musicians. Or they'll die.

You got a lot for your $20 back in 1980! :)

Great stuff. Shame about his departure.

he did take a lot of photos at a place I believe called the Rockpile, just google it you might get lucky.

Is Nash the Slash the person of the same name who took some great Jimi Hendrix photos in Canada in 1968? Always wondered about this.

igg.me/at/nashtheslash/x/19955090 Please help make the Nash The Slash come true. Please donate. There are a LOT of perks for contributing. Thank you!

Try Two Artists dvd's particularly Micomicon dissolve. That song it beyond awsome. watch for the planes in all the videos cos his colleague Robert Vanderhorst is a plane freak.

This is just the sh@#! What a great cover of Jan and Dean! Teacher teaches the student and the student schools the teacher!!! Five fuckin` you know what`s!!!

Blink 182 also coveted this 60 gem

wheres the bass in this and the heart?

While I enjoy the original and blink-182's cover, I find this version to be the superior version.

This guy is a Canadian icon.

Where is Nash now?? Did anyone every figure him out?

@LimeGreenFever Well , don't tell anyone.. keep it a mystery. you can tell your grandchildren some day.

I hear the beach boys...

vette, as in corvette.

@ozzychuck TRASH like the spice girls? Well I happen to love both Nash The Slash AND The Spice Girls so figure THAT one out.

The drum machine....ugghhh.

Beach Boys - ish.

Should have done better than it did this single

Ok Limegreen but I know what a potato looks like but I couldn't identify an idividual one in detail lol

Lowriding yay

This looks and sounds as if it was made by public school students.. simply awful..

this is quite bad
