[zigzagbigbag]

whats thrown on satge at 1:01?

[gmansi]

@zigzagbigbag a hat, the same hat that the guitar player take and put over the guitar on 1:16 and you can see on 1:30 and the rest of the song

[zigzagbigbag]

@zigzagbigbag ahhh ok I see now. lol

[ylekiot43]

@zigzagbigbag It was some osort

 of a carcass.

[shanferg1]

I forgot how much I liked that song and Rindy Ross was a hottie back in the day was'nt she

[MsTheoutcast]

He hardened my heart... :( It made him hard doing it.

[Sheldonwh]

OMG! She so badly wanted to be Pat Benatar. She's even dressed like her in this video. But even as good as Rindy was, she'd never be able to match Pat in vocal talent, fame, or beauty.

[Gunstar1701]

Great vid. That extended guitar solo is cool. I've always loved the symbolism of the guitar in this song. When he kicks on the fuzz box and hits that formerly soft chord HARD & LOUD to indicate that her heart it is indeed hardened, it is straight up KILLER, especially live. Thanks for posting these Quarterflash vids, bhixson. 80's rock rules.

[lsgh83]

Portland...From Portland.......Cheers

[breffnipark]

Brilliant track !! 5'*

[MAGNUM2F]

tremendous. i would have killed to see this!

[makatony]

This song really is special. It's has emotion and brings so much of it on in me. Mostly sadness but that's why I love it. Glad I thought of finding it here after so many years. They don't make tunes like this anymore folks and that's what's really sad.

Cheers

[cynderella921]

WTF! can't believe i'm watching this... thank you! It's been a tough year and i needed this.

[cynderella921]

WTF! can't believe i'm watching this... thank you!!!!

[mthrnatrsson1]

cute lady...good voice....they need to start touring again.....

[ThePriscila90]

the song is good and classic

[MsSigno]

Bellissima hearden my heart!

[ieatpie54321]

The guy with the red guitar is mah dad

[slap690]

@ieatpie54321 Bet he has some stories!

[ieatpie54321]

@slap690 Oh, Yeah.

[ieatpie54321]

THE LEAD GUITARIST IS MAH DAD.

[jbportland07]

great sax riff

[BlackIce5225]

I am just a fan of quarter flash I'm an 80's fan visit my channel it's 80's really

[raven92562]

I was there... She and her husband collided... Almost knocked her out!

[laberintodelasoledad]

FANTASTIC

[buzzclick500]

If it wasn't for youtube, I'd be in a rubber room, 'cause I couldn't have the '80s at my fingertips. ;])

[MrGottamakeit]

the sax intro is absolutely amazing

[brianallancobb]

Love Jack Charles going out near the audience.

Was there when Joan Jett leaned out over the audience in Seattle in 1994 and we lapped up her sweat.

[brianallancobb]

Love the longer hair, the clam digger pants, the tight-fitting blouse, the bowler...

Everything else (the mix, Marv Ross, Jack Charles) is better in the other live video on YouTube, identified as "RARE LIVE".

Think this one was recorded at least a year earlier.

[brianallancobb]

Nice little titties.

Can sure blow the hell out of the tenor sax, too.

[Shiggity123]

@brianallancobb actually, it's an alto sax.

[brianallancobb]

@Shiggity123

If it's an alto sax then Rindy Ross is three-feet tall.

[suchandsuchfilms]

@brianallancobb If it's a tenor sax then every note she's hitting is in the altissimo register.

[brianallancobb]

@suchandsuchfilms

You may be right. The instrument looks awful big for a tenor, but maybe she's tiny. And her sound has such balls that I never heard from Paul Desmond or Julian Adderly or Art Pepper.

[RevStormyMonday]

One Quarter Flash and three quarters crazy!!!

[Ev105]

Thanks to MTV, I found out this WASN'T Pat Benatar...

[innamorata40]

@Ev105 - Benatar would blow Rindy Ross (Quarterflash) of the F'in stage!

[TheGunslinger5854]

@innamorata40 Opinions are like assholes everybody has one. Some people just act like one. It would be a really good concert though Pat and Quarterflash. Just something about a female sax player that brings back old high school memories.

[innamorata40]

@TheGunslinger5854 - Whatever turns you on...a chick with a bunch of metal in her mouth, just doesn't do it for me!

[TheGunslinger5854]

@innamorata40 It's what they can do without a sax in their mouth that makes them different.

[clyde642006]

First of all, I don't know who ever said this was grunge-music!! (Douglasscatti) Punk music was referred 2 as Grunge music (late 80's/early 90's). Quarterflash was was Pop/Rock. There will never be groups like this, ever. Quarterflash, Level 42, Swingout Sister, Culture Club, Rick Astley. Groups/singer like these aren't made, thery're born. And nothing, NOTHING will ever replace the music that was made in the 80's. Today's music is crap, nothing more or nothing less.Just CRAP!

[carlmonico]

i saw them in portland within the last year or so. she has still got it and she is still hot.

[contractor46]

i agree who said grunge was musiv any who.

griunge is not music instruments out tune nobody on key slamming, hollering ,screaming, kicking etc etc. i didn't notice any of this in this video lsd does strange things to some folks.

[Ampaccessories]

how can any music today possibly be compared to the 70's & 80's? There is no passion or soul anymore, i still live in those times for music..

[douglascatti]

Well Said...I was raised with this music through my childhood in the 70's and 80's .......There hasn't been any harmony or soul since the times before Grudge music.

[Ampaccessories]

Thanks man, yeah some feeling came back to music with grunge.. particularly soundgarden, pearl jam and STP...

[Matlike1]

Great time.

[prettybionic]

love this extended solo...thanx for posting!

[BigTulsa]

Old Lady on Brady in Tulsa was where this was recorded I believe...

[yur1944]

Bravo!! Excellent performance....Rindy Ross a real singer.

Quarterflash was a great band in earlys 80`s

[silverdollar3]

I had MTV from day one, 24/7 music but only 450 vids at first, 1000 by next month . This is so much better than that crazy MTV video ! Yes, an underrated band, with 2 super songs !

[symbionesesla]

To bad Rindy Ross and her Hubby Ptere were a flash in the pan. They were awsome. They went back to being school teachers? What became of them? I loved their band!

[akihito4357]

love love this song since1982to1000000000000000000­0..............

[lalbruiz]

Great great song. Amazes me how she can go so fast from singing into playing the sax, I most likely would be out of air, LOL. Great video.

[elenaexis]

[elenaexis]

[metalion9]

[jbella2008]

Espectacular la voz de la cantante...no hace falta un gran performance para disfrutarla y que te transporte...no muchas canciones tienen esa cualidad

[luismichelito]

[luismichelito]

[ansgarmc]

[giannohan]

very nice song

[swavgav31]

i heard somewhere this broad was irish...

[Avatarblackwolf]

You know back in the 80s she had a nice bush, none of this shaved totter look like today.

[MountErebusAntartica]

totally hot

[donnyb2001]

Before they were Quarter Flash they used to play in Seattle's pioneer square club's as "Seafood Mama" ??

[shoggoff]

They were a Portland band. They probably traveled all through the region before they got a record deal and had to change their name to something more marketing friendly.

[ddlm2244]

is she ultra hot or what

[stevewilson20]

@ddlm2244 Yes, in this vid she is very attractive...But in some others she isn't....

But the song is always great!

[huntercentury]

One of the most underrated gems of the 80s. A true classic in every way. I think it sounds even better live.

[806samuel]

I remember them opening for Rick Springfield around 1982. They are from seattle area. maybe they are still there?

[ZILCH7]

Did she open for Rick Springfield ? ...that springfield bloke is one lucky guy.

[FireitupBedford]

They are from Portland not Seattle...

[Vegasbabee]

Who was that excellent lead guitarist?

[dolltwi]

Does anyone know where i can find this appearance on the blue jean network? interview and all?

[vhm14u2c]

The QF performances from this show was aired on a TV show called "Blue Jean Network" back in the early 80s, and is what made me run out an buy their first album. This was a great show with interviews too, with Rindy and John Ross explaining why they stopped teaching and went to performing.  If you have any more of this, please post. The whole show was great. Thanks for sharing this!

[vhm14u2c]

One thing I wanted to add/correct to my post that it was Rindy and Marv Ross and not Rindy and John Ross. Also, there is another posting from this show at this youtube link:

[serf3469]

[teeirons]

Wow, I was there on the 5th row. It was my first concert; I was 12.

[FireitupBedford]

What did that moron throw on stage at 1:03? They should have tossed that dumbass out of there...

[sydnmo]

The thing that was thrown on the stage at 1:03 is the hat she wears near the end of the video

[serf3469]
