tarney spencer group[ -no time to lose

[giaisbomb]

@MetallicBill ---Right, I love TRAFFIC and Winwood's solo work. Have the CD's. I swear Radio Station played this song and misstated it was by The Spencer Davis Group. I wrote it down, too. Thanks for the Info. I found this LP on Ebay for 10 bucks....

[MetallicBill]

@giaisbomb Yep, good, but should be on eBay cheaper then that! I'd say this song appears the standout, from my recollection. Few records, even one hit wonders, have an album full of choice stuff, not saying it's bad, but this is excellent stuff

[giaisbomb]

@MetallicBill ---EXACTLY! I thought I'd find it on Ebay for Buy Now at 99 Cents! I'm always looking for some vintage, obscure stuff that is rare---so they can charge more. I think I'll look at used record stores. I'd rather have the CD anyways for that price. LP's are a pain in the ass compared to CD's. I like to replay certain songs and just press a button. I'm spoiled now. I was going to buy the recording unit to put all my LP's onto CD....That costs money too, for the blank CD's!

[MetallicBill]

@giaisbomb Blank media DOES show up at the Goodwill. I see USB turntables are on the market, but you can record to digital from an old analog receiver or turntable. You can use MiniDiscs as one example

[blue67gto1]

Where can I download this so I can put it on my ipod

[racesity]

They play this regularly on 95.7 the ride in North Carolina A RARE GEM.

[beahgtm]

my god this song really brings me back to the days THE FIRST DAZE OF THE real mtv.. No time to lose thanks for posting your awsome.

[Gerkinstock]

Yeah, that's when I first saw it too, early 1982.

[edward1960hotmail]

I think that this is the MTV edited version. In any case thank-you for sharing. brings back lots of great memories

[Rcfuss]

Vintage Video with the rollerskaters. Too funny

[carlynutt]

Why oh why hasn't a record label reissued the TSB albums Run For Your Life and Three's A Crowd on CD? I've seen the pirated CD-R's out there but I want the originals remastered on CD. Whoever controls the A&M catalog needs to get on this.

[MetallicBill]

@carlynutt I own the LP, they can be found in used LP records stores, and YES, those still exist. Even Goodwill stores have old LP collections

[giaisbomb]

@MetallicBill ----Is this the correct name of the band for this great tune? I thought it was Spencer Davis Group, No wonder I never could find this tune. Please reply so I can pick this one up...Thanks!

[MetallicBill]

@giaisbomb Spencer Davis is mainly known for singer of Traffic, Steve Winwood. He's not in this band, so it's true they are not related!

[GeminiTide]

Oh man, this song is and was awesome... takes me back to the early 80s when MTV was new and good and played JUST vids all the time... so good to hear this again!

[CreativeCritisizm]

This sure beats listening to Hip Hop,,,,,

[KimonoSkunk]

I have a wife that looks like the backwards skating blond at 2;02-2;05...

Shes a nat blond from NC.

Kimono-skunk

[badoocee]

YES!!! Thank you!

[Darryl80]

That girl at 2:08 IS TOTALLY BUILT LIKE A BRICK HOUSE!!

I'd take her over a emaciated, half-starved size 2 "supermodel" any day of the week. Too bad she's more than likely a 50-something grandmother now. :-(

[Gerkinstock]

There's a hot girl on roller skates in Dire Straits' "Skateaway," too.

[CreativeCritisizm]

yeah, something about them chicks from 1979 really get me horny !

[puppypoo1978]

Wow,my chuldhood friend said i had to remember this song, I put it in, and i totally forgot about this song!! I havent heard it for 25 years . WOW

[journeylive]

Totally Great rock and roll song!! Hats off!

[gazorba]

Yeh, I miss the 80's,things were alot more laid back then. Im glad I a tteen back then,everyone got themselves in a big damn hurry now!

[alberta12]

Thank-you Thank-you Thank-you I just went back 25 years in time, what a trip

[cfdal]

I searched high and low for this video for a year!I was searching for Tarney Spencer Band instead of Tarney Spencer Group!

This song, and in particular... this video possess' a mystique that brings me back to the magical day's of my youth. The haunting melody has a certain sadness to it. You never here this song on the radio...and from waht I understand it is currently OOP. What a shame.

Thank you for posting this awesome video!!!!!!!

[thewormster]

your very welcome.This might have been the first album i bought, just for this song.I know exactly what you mean in your response.Enjoy

[tjw0099]

Dude,

You nailed it. I can remember watching it in late 82, spring 83 on MTV.

The first time I saw it was after a date around 1230 am. The haunting melody really fit my mood and it had such an impact I can remember it today.

I got the same vibes from Robert Plants "Big Log" and the Split Enz "Ghost Girl". Same time period, give or take a year.

Tom

[Gerkinstock]

What about "In the Mood"?

[u2joshuadesireu]

@tjw0099 it actually came out in november 1979. i remember hearing it all the time at this restaurant that my bro in law owned where we partied all the time. great music great food late 70s what isnt to like eh?

[giaisbomb]

@u2joshuadesireu ----Ah yes, 1979..........

[JourneyRocks81]

@giaisbomb Ah yes, 1981........

[giaisbomb]

@JourneyRocks81 ---I saw your JOURNEY Escape Icon on your comment. I saw that tour and had the baseball jersey from it. I replaced that LP with a CD. I still think Escape is my fave Journey LP! 1981, Great too. How old are you, I'm 43...

[JourneyRocks81]

@giaisbomb Hi. nice to meet you. I too think that Escape is my all time face Journey Lp. I to am in my late 40's. I love the year 1981. I hope we can be friends. Looking forward to hearing from you. :)

[MetallicBill]

@cfdal I believe it IS Tarney Spencer Band, actually. There is a better audio and video upload of this clip, seems about three in all

[fetty929]

bad audio!!!

[cskten]

Really like this group..wish I could find this single on CD..would purchase it. Thanks for uploading the video..

[bob12561]

I have it on the CD, The Tarney/Spencer Band "Run For Your Life".

[karensora48]

please i want a copy

[tjw0099]

Thanks for posting this video.

Man, I can remember watching this on MTV when MTV was worth a shit, back in the early-mid 80's.

I really love the skating shots. Especially the hot chick with the boom box. But the shot of the girl skating in circles near the end of the video is classic.

Thanks again,

Tom
