Back in the 80's I used to frequent a nightclub in Hanley, Stoke on Trent, called "The Place". It was massive and had four dance floors. The smallest of these played electronic and indie music and was where I hung out. Whenever the DJ played "Sensoria" or "Yashar" there was always a collective mad dash for the floor. Love Cabaret Voltaire. R.i.p Richard H Kirk and thankyou for the music and memories 🧡

I always feel like any Peel session is the show I would have loved to see live. Love Cabaret Voltaire. So ahead of their time.

When you consider this was 34 years ago, you realise just how amazing music was back then and how mundane and digitised, most music is now.

this is what the original underground was all about! this was prequell to the hacienda...Caberet Voltaire just shone so much!!

The best Cabs years 1982 up to 1985.

R.I.P. Richard H. Kirk. SOB.

THE CABS! Micro-Phonies, the Crackdown album, Drinking gasoline. And now Richard’s on his own with the splendiferous Shadow of fear and Mal also doing great music! Couldn’t be better.

you can always rely on those peel sessions for sound quality

So lucky to have lived through the all 80s. No need to marvel at the sound quality, we've had very sophisticated equipment for years, it's crap like mp3 that 's the problem.

I love how they have elements from big funk, upcoming sensoria, and many other takes from drinking gasoline in this!! I can hear kino in this, too.

Dream funk Sleepwalker. Wow. What funtastic memories. Funktastic. Those were he days my friends.

Dannnng.. these guys are STILL ahead of their time..

Cabaret Voltaire + Wire - so ehrlich + voller Energie...!!!

In best BBC sound quality 👍

Rough yet with such seemingly few elements could bring forth . Steadfast forever Cabs.

superb sound quality !

Incredible session 🤯

i heart these dudes

THANK YOU

Amazing⚡️

what cabaret voltaire's oeuvre covers to me is the evolution from analogue to digital. There are things that just can't happen in a digital expression which are effortless and spontaneous when recording real instruments. A lot of what Richard H Kirk was doing in 1984 was more likened to what Lee Scratch Perry did than what would be done with sequencing software later. By the 90s they were fully digital and this kind of brapping stopped.

RIP RHK

A RADIO FEEDBACK MIXCLOUD HIT

Troppo avanti!!!!!!

This should never have happened,R.I.P. RICHARD H KIRK.

"Nag Nag Nag" is the best one they ever did.

The eighties.

HOLY TRI-ANGLE LIVE!!

lars,you just stole my thunder.great minds think alike

22nd century funk music

I always loved their Covenant album the most, yet many cabs fans rate it as a turkey.

There was only 2 members in Caberat Voltaire and Mr. Peel was much older and reserved. Any ideas on the 3rd wheel? Oh.. It's me!?!

What is it with CV..? They have got the electro-industrial cool to da max!!!

Very Hot

Is Mr. New Romantic on the left Chris Watson? He left in '81.

No its not me, my bad.

Dreadful band, had the misfortune to have seen them at the Clarendon, Hammersmith. Their book Industrial Evolution reads: "Another notable gig was at the Clarendon Hammersmith". There were five people there, if I remember correctly!
