2020 report on music video from 1980Back in 1980, the record industry was in turmoil - a place they seem to find themselves in on a regular basis. Featuring interviews with various record label executives on weather or not this new thing called "music video" would save the record business. This pre-dated eMpTyVee, which didn't launch until August 1st, 1981. Featuring clips from various artists including: Kate Bush Lene Lovich Todd Rundgren The Rolling Stones Michael Nesmith Rickie Lee Jones Tom Petty Fleetwood Mac The Buggles Meatloaf Bruce Springsteen It's amusing (although unintentionally so), and the hosts of the program really don't seem to grasp the relationship of music and video. And people under 20 might find those giant DVDs somewhat disturbing.
