There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Those drums show how that song/album could have sounded without the Bontempi drum beats.

I really dig this version. Tighten Up had some
Bad’s best songs but really suffered from the limp production. This gives a glimpse into how it could have sounded with those live drums & more beefed up guitar. Thanks again John for a these great finds, very much appreciated!

Museli's been normalised since then. Even rock stars like Mick eat it.

Was that actually broadcast? Or just Battle Of All Saints Road?

It was broadcast. Not sure why All Saints Road made it into circulation and this didn't.

I'm sure there was a show with only All Saints Road on. I had it on video for many years. It's clearly from the same studo performance, but I'd never seen this song before. Thanks for posting.

May have been an edited repeat? I have the full show and the two songs were definitely part of the original broadcast

I remember seeing this when it was on... I used to like Night Network a lot. Seemed like BAD were on fairly regularly. Somewhere I have NN video of Don Letts reviewing the new videos with Mick Brown and another singer whose name escapes me that was quite entertaining.
