Man. lol. I heard that song a thousand times growing up but I didn’t have a clue about him, or the stage show, until a few years ago. What a character, and he never really gave up the weirdness! I had probably that same link of the original saved but it’s dead now. Here’s the same TOTP footage…a little cleaner but I usually try to save more than one video on youtube since they disappear so often. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=en1uwIzI3SE
And seven years later in full technicolor, not synched. I read about his fire accidents and all the helpers. He was before his time in all this…I wonder if Alice Cooper and Kiss and a lot of the early punk and black metal bands were influenced by him in the 70s.
One of my favorite bands from the 1990s and beyond.
Music producer Rick Beato got a hold of the multitrack masters of this song for his YouTube series What Makes This Song Great. In his video, Rick breaks down the song so you can hear exactly what's going on.
The band liked the result so much they posted it on the official Tool website!
