Love "Summer Of 81'" , don't think I've seen the clip - looking forward to that. Ditto "The Queen & Me"
Well that was interesting... rage started the 1983 Rock Arena episode with no intro, jumping straight to Eagle Rock (missing the first 3 videos) and ending without warning after the W.H.Y video (hence missing the last 5 videos). I wonder if the master was damaged and they had to drop the beginning and the end? Or time constraints? (and I've just seen the other thread on this topic...)
At least they played the most important bits
I had never seen the video for Primal Park, and despite describing it as "live" on the runsheet it wasn't really. Yes they had instruments in hand and were on a stage, but there was no audience and they were miming the studio recording... that makes it a video in my book!
The Summer Of 81 clip was I think the Countdown produced clip. The "real" video was played on rage last week.
