That's Andy Mackay (Roxy Music) on sax... Great song... a ska band I was in about 100 years ago did a rip-roaring cover of this!

Great song! Great video. Is that Beatles-cover in the video or is it something you have done?

I found this because i was looking for a jeans advert from around the same time (early 80's) which utilised the same freeze-frame and cut to ripping photo gimmick (but in colour!). Not sure if it was levi's or ?

But it had a New Romo style and robo dancing with a lyric that went "What's going on what's going on what's going on" Anyone got that?

Ah, the Wranglers jeans advert - Godley and Creme produced it, right down to the "whats going on" soundtrack...

[cavelord555]

You know, I kinda half remember that,, love to see it again, cool cheers ;)

[joh2]

Ah, type "Godley and creme wranglers" into Youtube ande see what comes up :)

[cavelord555]

Fannytastic! I've wanted to see this again for years! I think for people today spoiled by the ease of CG, it will be pretty difficult to imagine how powerful this video was at the time. It looks so rough now, but then it looked like unreal! How did they do it etc. This one video inspired me to make film. thx D.
