Demon Boyz - Northside (live Performance on N Sign Radio, Night Network, 1988, Part 1)

Описание: Demon Boyz performing live on Tim Westwood's N Sign Radio on Night Network in 1988. Here they are performing 'Northside' off their amazing debut album 'Recognition'.

Before N Sign Radio on night network, we as the youth of that era who were into Hip Hop didn't really have any shows of this nature on TV so this was at the time a much needed and welcome experience representing us. We used to have to stay up through all hours of the night to be able to catch these shows. We didn't have the luxury of any recording facilities like we do today unless we could get our hands on VHS recorders which were expensive for us kids back then. Most VHS players were simply just that, they were players, so you either had to save all your pennies and eventually get a recorder or rely on someone else to record and then borrow their VHS tapes, which in itself was a mission as there were always trust issues regarding if you would ever see your tapes back or not

When we upload part 2, we'll give a little insight into Demon Boyz, but for now we'll simply leave it as - when we saw them on this show we all felt a sense of hope, things were changing, we the kids of that generation were being heard and the possibilities were now knocking on our doors, the flood gates were about to open up. Demon Boyz set the levels and brought a fresh sound to our ears. To many of us, we felt a certain American group by the name of Das EFX copied their style and went on to achieve much more success than Demon Boyz were ever given the opportunity to. Maximum respect to the Demon Boyz and thank you for the music and your contribution to Hip Hop.
