Whoah what a trip... An A's record I found a few days ago and checked it out on youtube and what gas.... I used to skate and surf in the Heights in NJ in the 60's & mid 70's. But I never would have heard the album, don't have a vinyl driver hooked up and haven't for years....I was born it PA, it is cool hearing the band rip from so long ago.... I'll post the red vinyl on ebay cheap for a REAL fan... Who's Gonna Save the World - WE ARE.. yaterbob

VIDEO CONCERT HALL ruled before MTV came along! And don't forget NIGHT FLIGHT!

 JMAN

[wrapsback]

the drumer my teacher

[WowIndescribable]

I remember this from Video Concert Hall too. These guys were one of the top power-pop bands ever, although their success didn't follow it. The sentiment is more important now than it ever was - if you don't do it, Who's Going to Save The World? If only 'they' had listened 25 years ago...

[artfuldodgersite]

Again, My thanks out to you for posting this extremely rare stuff. I didn't think any video existed of The A's from their debut album.

[buzzlightout]

Finally!!!..My fave A's song. I remember seeing the OGWT(The Old Grey Whistle Test) back in England and I bought the album straight away. I also have Richard's new album with the Peace Creeps, this is well worth hearing. Thank you for posting this.

[yhn1inc]

The Peace Creeps are currently playing in the Philadelphia area and the A's just did a reunion show with the Hooters over Thanksgiving this year...

[40isthenew40]

oh.....I still have the record. I found it in a bargain bin in the '80s.

[40isthenew40]

I first heard these guys on Video Concert Hall....almost three decades ago?
