Mike and The Mechanics live...

[G.I.Jim]

Just found some cool footage from their 1995 show at the House Of Blues, and thought some of you might like to hear it!


Here's "All I Need Is A Miracle"

"Silent Running"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS8TO4uUpjI

"Mea Culpa"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IF0pSWpqPko

"Beggar On A Beach Of Gold"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcVP0uDh0i8


Now here's what they sounded like in 2011 without Paul Carrack and the late Paul Young. I have to admit, while neither of them is replaceable... They do still sound decent. I'm not a fan of the last album, but I would DEFINITELY pay to hear this live...

Those clips show what a great singer Paul Young was and what a shit guitarist Mike Rutherford is.

Back in the 80's I liked their music, exclusively just the 1985 album release (Call to Arms, Par Avion, Hanging By A Thread, You Are The One).

I agree with you about Paul. He was one of the rare singers that I think actually sounded better live than in the studio. Mike... I disagree. He's not the most technically talented guitarist out there, but he has a very unique sound and style that add a lot to the genre of music. And he and Tony Banks also made an amazing bunch of songs over the years.

Always liked this tune. Seems like a great stadium sing-a-long song.

This one is my favorite song of Young's. I LOVE this song!!

Here's a cool 2011 version of "All I Need Is A Miracle" with the new singer. He's not as good as Young, but as good as can be expected. I really dig this (minus the weird delay on his vocals) and would LOVE to see them live.

Jim, Mate, Listen to the Paul Young Version of All I need. when it comes to the solo he is clueless. This track needed someone like Alan Murphy or Steve Farris.

I'll agree with you on this one. He was a little lost. He's never been a great solo guitarist, but I think I like him because of the cool rhythm guitars. His playing is very unique, and some of the things he's played with Genesis are amazing.
