Conflict were a band I saw perform on several occasions from 1982 up to 1986. The very last time I was actually at a Conflict gig was once in 1987, 18th April 1987 at the '5000' Brixton Academy bash. All The Madmen records had a stall at the front of the building, so although I checked out bits of all the bands, I can hardly state that I witnessed all the bands all of the time. Myself and Gummidge were swapping seats at the All The Madmen stall for standing around the stage every fifteen minutes or so. Fifteen minute snippets of Thatcher On Acid, Benjamin Zephaniah and Conflict were duly witnessed. My video uploaded tonight has live at the Olympic Auditorium, Los Angeles 1985 written on the video cassette, but checking YouTube I see that a similar video is placed up as Fenders Ballroom, Long Beach 1985. So either the video that Kevin Webb gave to me has the wrong details on, or a couple of YouTube uploads are incorrect. I will go with 'Fenders Ballroom' on this upload tonight and assume Kevin made an error writing on the video he gave me. The interesting thing about this video is that looking at the other footage of the 'Fenders Ballroom' performance on YouTube, the other videos seem to have multiple camera angles back of venue, sides of stage etc. The videos that I noticed these multiple angles on were all pretty poor quality incidentally. My video, apart from being almost perfect quality, is only filmed from the back of the venue which leads me to believe that this video is a first generation copy of one of the eventual edits. There might be two more videos of this performance with the left and the right side of the stage on. Someone has got all the footage together and edited all three onto a 'finished' copy that other YouTube channels have uploaded. I haven't a scooby where the three camera footage is from or whether it is available, and I do not actually care that much, but there you go. I know nothing of this gig or tour as I was not there, or indeed anywhere near there. I did witness Conflict about three times in 1985 though, once at the Camden Electric Ballroom and a couple of times upstairs at Hammersmith Clarendon so I recognise the set list and the shouty bits. What is different to the U.K performances that I witnessed during that year is the absolutely insane amount of punk punters up on the stage. During some of this footage the viewer will just need to assume that the band are actually on the stage and not in a back room with a record player turning at 33rpm through the P.A system. Conflict were a great band during the early to mid 1980's. Chumbawumba were a preferable option for me from the dawn of 1986 so did not attend too many Conflict gigs that year. I knew Kevin and spent many hours in his company. I saw Kevin for the last time a week or so before he died. He came to see me at Southern Record Distribution to pick up some reggae 7” and 12” records to spin at his new found 'home' in Lille, France. He helped run a small bar with some French friends and he was mainly on DJ duties there. I had lost touch a little with Kevin by this time and only saw him a dozen times a year, as opposed to several times a week that we had been used to in the late 1980′s early 1990′s when we were DJ’ing together. We were lucky enough to DJ alongside the Spiral Tribe and Bedlam Sound Systems on a few occasions. Working at Southern Studios / Southern Record Distributors since the dawn of 1989, I could get my hands on all the upfront white labels from all the independent record labels pushing this new rave / junglist music which was obviously a decent head start when it came to performing at these kind of events! We both performed our sets in North London squats and various ‘stolen for the night’ woodland areas on a fair few occasions. The biggest event we were involved in was some stolen land near an Industrial Estate in Tunbridge Wells. The police would generally come around with dogs to order the systems to be dismantled in the early hours. On one occasion in Hadley Wood near Barnet, the police turned off the generator (and therefore all the lights) and then told us to dismantle. Not easy in the darkest part of the wood at four in the morning. We eventually ended up with a residency at the White Hart pub in Clapton DJ'ing reggae records together. At all these events shared with Kevin, I would normally drop reggae records to calm people down in the mid - morning slots, Kevin would look after most of the rave / junglist requirements with his best friend Ned at the beginning of the night / morning. I knew Kevin when he was performing in Conflict in the mid 1980’s to chat to and he was the best guitarist that band had ever had in my opinion. R.I.P Kevin. R.I.P Paco. I did not know Paco at all, so I will not insult his memory by claiming otherwise. I do know that he was a gentle giant, loved by all.
