Februar 2004 Teil 1 Diese Radio Show erfolgte in Zusammenarbeit mit Hidde von der pophistory ( www.pophistory.de )von Radio Ostfriesland. Danke für das tolle Teamworking. Dies ist ein Leitfaden zur Show, der Text konnte nicht so umfangreich gesprochen werden, dazu gibt es auch noch Interviews mit Fans.
Der Text zur History wurde von mir persönlich zusammengetragen, so auch die Musik zur Show und Interviewpartner. http://www.poprocknews.de/board/thread.php?threadid=491&boardid=6&styleid=1&sid=89d937cc7d41271b31ef4a3e2a9cc7a0 SLADE SPECIAL RADIO SHOW 28. Februar 2004 Teil 2 http://www.poprocknews.de/board/thread.php?threadid=492&boardid=6&styleid=1&sid=89d937cc7d41271b31ef4a3e2a9cc7a0 Video Description  COZ I LUV YOU pt2 In keeping with the SIE philosophy of bringing grainy old bits of long forgotten footage to the bored, here is a small snippet of film that was shown directly after the band mimed to Coz I Luv You on Chermunn TV show Disco.
The clip shows the band receiving a silver disc for sales of Get Down With It and generally being zany chaps, a rare piece of footage from the SIE archives. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqhyS5JU3hk Translation / Uebersetzung zum Video - free translation from Monika LONDON POP NEWS in the German Channel at " DISCO" with Ilja Richter. Sill Berger was talking with SLADE : " It`s an informativ party today with the band SLADE, they get today the silver record. Last year SLADE was with " Get Down And Get With It" the best up-and-comming young band and got the first silver record exact on the same day, as they was the number 1 in Britan with his Follow-up "Coz I Luv You". When I was later together with the band and we celebrated privat, they told me, that the progressive music is rubbish and that they refused an offer for a 5 Million $ contract in USA, because they like it to be faithful to them home England. They told me also, that they plan for next year a Germantour and for this they can already talk some words in German. " For this evening you was talking enough " :-)) Video Description  In 1971 Chas Chandler suggested that the next single for the band would be a studio version of their live set finisher, Get Down With It.
Having heard Little Richards 1966 version of this Bobby Marchan song, the band had used it to finish their show with and after a string of singles that did nothing, GDWI bludgeoned it's way into the national and European charts.
Union Square Music is currently engaged with the remastering and reissue of the bands back catalogue, where GDWI can be found in live and studio versions.
http://www.unionsquaremusic.co.uk/slade/links/index.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoQGj3rui68 Video Description  Kick Arse version of the Ten Years After anthem 'Hear Me Calling', except it was not an anthem until Slade got a hold of it and used it as their opening number for many years.
This is an outstanding track that is available on the beat club 40th anniversary edition dvd.
It is a classic track from a class band, tight as a dwarf's foreskin Slade were peerless live, as you can hear when you nip out and buy the Union Square Music collection of remastered and reissued Slade CD's........
http://www.unionsquaremusic.co.uk/slade/links/index.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beFrVs0C0JU Video Description  From the 1972 Paris studio recording transcription disc comes a belting version of Good Golly Miss Molly set to moving pictures to form a SIE composite video...
Reissues and remasters from Union Square Music are one thing but get your teeth into something that won't be coming to a shoppe near you soon! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SdTtPvRzd4 Video Description  1981 saw the band riding a new wave of heavy metal induced euphoria following their show stealing slot at the 1980 Reading festival, where they wiped, and I mean wiped the floor with every other band that was there.
They played a short tour of Germany with Reading headliners Whitesnake, during which the band came up with 'Daughters'which is almost 'Fool For Your Lovin'.
From the Slade In England video archive comes the promotional video which has never been broadcast in full and is rarely seen in its entirety...enjoy.
Union Square Music is currently engaged with the remastering and reissue of the bands back catalogue, where Lock Up Your Daughters can be found in both live and studio versions.
http://www.unionsquaremusic.co.uk/slade/links/index.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcFcWrZjfdM Video Description  DON POWELL ON MEMORY Pt1 Slade drummer Don Powell's 1973 road accident is well documented, as is the resulting short term memory loss.
Former Goodie Dr Graeme Garden chats with Donald Georgie on UK TV show 'Body Matters'
Once again grainy old video footage long since forgotten... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVaL_d7-N6I Video Description  The opening chords of this Slade anthem have still to be bettered, an absolute Slade classic.
US hair band Quiet Riot scored a major US hit with their version of the track, but the short arsed lead 'singer'....don't know his name, the one with the wig..has since distanced himself from the band and people that gave him his 15 minutes of fame.
Union Square Music are remastering and rereleasing the complete Slade back catalogue and as there are so many crap versions of namby pamby bedwetters Quiet Riots version on youtube, I decided it was time that the real thing made a guest appearance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpWo4YCT0oU Video Description  The heady success of Reading was short lived and in 1982 the band released Ruby Red as a single and also from the soon to be reissued 'Til Deaf Do Us Part' cd.
This promotional video remains unreleased and unseen..unless you have the unofficial 'One More Time/Through The Years SIE DVD.

This video has been played around with here at SIE to bring it to life a little....I know, I know...
It is a classic track from a class band, tight as a dwarf's foreskin Slade were peerless live, as you can hear when you nip out and buy the Union Square Music collection of remastered and reissued Slade CD's........
http://www.unionsquaremusic.co.uk/slade/links/index.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H26FKcwymIw Video Description  GUDBUY T JANE I thought it was time that some of the old footage was given a new lease of life, it makes sense expecially with the bands complete back catalogue being remastered and reissued by Union Square Music.
This footage was filmed during the afternoon sound check at the Rainbow theatre, the audio is from somewhere else!
Union Square Music is currently engaged with the remastering and reissue of the bands back catalogue, where 'Jane' can be found in both live and studio versions.
http://www.unionsquaremusic.co.uk/slade/links/index.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pG_kIJfRME Video Description  This is the earliest known footage to exist of the band, one of two tracks performed on the Alane Price show in November of 1969.
It is a pity that neither track was thought worthy enough to feature on the officially sanctioned dvd release of 2005.
This edit is taken from the 'Through the years SIE dvd and features an intro by Noel Gallagher, who has always been a fan of the band and says so every time he is asked.
Union Square Music have released This Beatles cover on the 'Beginnings/Play It Loud' reissued CD.
http://www.unionsquaremusic.co.uk/slade/links/index.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qOV3t4Kx8s Video Description - WILD WINDS ARE BLOWING  This is the earliest known footage to exist of the band, one of two tracks performed on the Alane Price show in November of 1969.
It is a pity that neither track was thought worthy enough to feature on the officially sanctioned dvd release of 2005, despite the footage being available.
Wwab was penned by Bob Winsley and Jack Saker and released as a doomed single, it did give the band some tv exposure and this footage is the best that I have managed to find of the track, snippets of crystal clear footage have been used before, most notably on the 'It's Slade' BBC documentary...but not enough yet to attempt a 'new' video.
So for what its worth.....
Union Square Music have released This on the 'Beginnings/Play It Loud' reissued CD.
http://www.unionsquaremusic.co.uk/slade/links/index.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVncVUnCPCM Video Description - LOOK WOT U DUN  Slade In England once again brings you from the archives a clip of the band miming to LWUD on a French TV show entitled 'Entente Cordial - Special England'
As most things French it was a strange concept and told the story of England using Shakesperean quotes and music of the day, in this show Slade were joined by Gilbert O Sullivan and someone called 'Sheila'
This footage is available, and has been since 1972 from the PARIS : OFFICE NAT. DE RADIODIFFUSION ET TELEVIS. FR (ORTF) and is brought to you here on youtube earlier than anticipated due to unscrupulous abba fan types.
Buy the remastered and reissued cd's from Union Square Music.
http://www.unionsquaremusic.co.uk/slade/links/index.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6_2k9rvxzY Video Description - BURNING IN THE HEAT OF LOVE  It's 1977 and Slade are nowhere, abandoned by the masses and music press alike,1977 was as Lea describes 'year zero' for the band.
Instead of giving it all up the band went back on the road and slogged their guts out around the small clubs to a dwindling but solid hard core fan base that numbered around 300 souls in the UK.
This clip of film is from German TV show Szene and is brought to you by Slade In England.
The track features on the official Slade anthology 4 cd gift set available from all good record stores now.
Yawn.........
http://www.sladeinengland.co.uk/vids/slade_BURNING_GRMAN.htm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhWOsm1GMVk Video Description - WHEELS AIN'T COMING DOWN  Slade In England is once again able to smash down convention and from the fab and groovy all singing all dancing Slade In England archives comes this previously unbroadcast promotional video for WACD.
Lack of sales meant that it was never shown on TV, made a one off appearance at a fan convention and then was lost until last year when it appeared on the unofficial fan dvd 'One More Time/Through The Years'.
It is unlikely ever to be given the official release it deserves so, all you Slade fans fed up with being spoon fed the same old same old year after year...enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Zb0eCj6zps Video Description - WE'LL BRING THE HOUSE DOWN The aftermath of Reading gave Slade their first top ten hit in centuries with WBTHD, and what better way to announce yourself to the waiting world as the new standard bearers of British Heavy Metal?
Moondogs Matinee of course, the brand new kids TV show that was first aired on 14/04/1981.
Slade performed both the hit of the day and a 100mph version of Mama on the show, both clips are available to be used on any proper dvd and are stored at the ITN/Granada archives.....you could believe that or you could believe that it does not exist, take your pick! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKMLmUTtpT4 Video Description - DIZZY MAMA How many Slade fans picked up the gibbon chunder coloured slice of vinyl that was 'Ginny Ginny', and stared in disbelief at the lable?
Surely there was some mistake, a misspress perhaps...could 'Dizzy Mama' really be the B side?
Indeed it was and although the A side sank without a trace, Dizzy Mama, introduced into the set in January 1980, was to become the bands opener in later tours and would remain so for a few years before being itself replaced with 'Preacher'.
Dizzy Mama is a reworking of ZZ Top's 'Tush', if not a reworking it certainly pays some 'omage' to the bearded ones ditty.
In this age of box sets and costly retrospectives, Slade have been criminally ill served. The repeat reissuing of greatest hits packages spiced up with a picture book or two really doesnt hit the mark.
Enjoy another Slade In England special vid presentation of the band ripping through Dizzy Mama, a clarion call to arms for the masses, video footage filmed at the Kimb erley leisure centre Nottingham and the audio is from the Lochem set.
Have fun... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ni6cn9PlCE Tv interview with Dave & Jim in The Trumpet 1984
(Central News)to tie in with Feel The Noize Book. ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zDhVRvl00A SLADE - still the same (tv playback) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIjmyXlWSy0 Slade - Don Powell Talks to Slade In England Don Powell chats to Slade In England in 2001....part one of an exclusive SIE fab and groovy vid... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xg87RGHw-iY SLADE - ROCK N ROLL PREACHER In their recording career Slade notched up an impressive three live Lp's finishing up with 'Slade On Stage'.
Union Square Music are currently in the process of reissuing the complete Slade Catalogue including on SalvoCD201 'SLADE ALIVE!' which is a special two cd package containing all three and some bonus Reading Live tracks from the Reading EP's.
Preacher was never as good an opener as Hear Me Calling or Dizzy Mama but sit back and enjoy this Slade In England video then rush off and buy the CD.......
http://www.unionsquaremusic http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PS0dx5NiZY0 Slade - Take Me Bak 'ome (1972) From a short lived 1972 TV program called '2 G's And The Pop People'. Pretty crazy stuff. Each band member has a dancing chick dressed sort of the same as them mimicking their moves as they lip sync 'Take Me Bak 'ome'.. This is supposed to be the only known video of Slade doing this song back in their prime. (There's a colour version out there somewhere...) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1EAg6yeRVY SEP 2006 "SKWEEZE ME, PLEEZE ME" IN "BLACKPOOL" I just recorded a short movie, because in the Finnish Channel "YLE TV 1"
they showed today the English series " Blackpool" and in the part 3 of 6
you can hear SLADE with "Skweeze me, pleeze me" in a hot part :-) By this way you can also learn some finnish words, if you like it to read
the undertitel :-) K.O.R. Monika, Helsinki THEM KINDA MONKEYS -  THE BEST LIVE BAND EVER Once again....yet another SIE project 75 file http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kM3egx-AUA HOW DOES IT FEEL - THE BEST LIVE BAND EVER Part three of the SIE 75' project....  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jPWrwRNimc Some new videos on You Tube: THANKS FOR THE MEMORY  A composite SIE version........ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4442r-eFbfU 19th October SKWEEZE ME PLEEZE ME It is fair to say that by time SMPM was released in the 1973 that the band could have released any old shit and it would have gone straight to number one such was the momentum built up by the band following a string of hits including Cum On Feel The Noize which had already smashed into the charts at the number one spot.
The band could do no wrong and were booked to play two shows at Londons Earls court venue.
The shows were filmed but criminally were never released.
The film was never stored correctly and is now mostly dust. Some clips do exist notably in the archives of the Bert Sugarman organisation who bought three tracks in the 70's for US Tv transmission.
Here is an early SIE composite video of the track overdubbed with audio taken from one shows. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyUiv2hiAV4 MERRY XMAS EVERYBODY  There is not alot more to be said about this classic pop tune, it's insidiousness has allowed it of late to even be heard in US shopping malls at that time of the year.
Here is a SIE composite video of the band, mostly from 1973's Xmas edition of Sez Lez..........the full clip of course resides in archives and should have been included on some sort of official release by now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqURbvmpWiA THE BANGING MAN  1974 saw Slade continue to mature and seek a wider audience with this ditty about life on the road. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avYN5myOid8 LEMME LOVE INTO YA For some reason the powers that be within the Slade world chose to release 'Return To Base' in 1979 which in the dusk of punk and the dawning of the new romantics was guaranteed to sink without a trace, which it did, until hastily being renamed, rejigged and reissued as 'We'll Bring The House Down' following their Reading festival triumph in 1980.
One of the tracks that managed to stay in the live set for a while was 'lemme Love Into Ya' which is presented here as rough grainy footage that has been through the effects mill to lighten it up enough for viewing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vE25pipDPo
