@RettroDood Fantastic, I've been looking for this video for years. Haven't seen the Weebee Dance section since I was a kid, thanks for posting it. I love this band!
I think "Let's Make Some Noise" is the best rock and soul video I've ever seen. Like a white Earth/Wind and Fire combined with the Clash, on steroids. Even more amazing that I never saw this til this late year (and my band actually tried to cover Sushi Girl when it came out). I believe this is 1981 which was a critical year when pop music could stay energized by the British/US/Irish resurgence or revert to schlock. The Tubes could have led the way if enough people listened.
There was a day when people cared about music, instead of some idiot reciting some dirty little rhymes on top of somebody else's music (because they couldn't make their own.) And these people cared about music. I used to sing this in a band when I was young. Couldn't sing this now. Too sophisticated.
Way back then I bought the VHS the title of which escapes me - it full of these fantastic tracks like mondo bondage, sushi, business, lets make some noise and "white punks". AWESOME BAND
Why dont they make concept videos like this anymore. Im sick of seeing bubble butts shaking all my monitor. My mind can only handle so much booty. Id like to see vids like this again.
@philster61 I think you may find the bands are out there but they aren´t dominating the mainstream video playlists. What about bands like ¨OK Go" and ¨Scissor Sisters¨? They have great videos.
best 70's song of the 80's. The tubes were punk before punk was punk, they were raunch rock after punk was punk. The tubes were their own band, and never apologized, God bless them! pure America! Liteeeerally kicked out of Oshkosh wi, freaking hicks, rocked them seismically!
That soy-sauce wrestling finale of "Sushi Girl" just about put it up into the "Best Early 80s Video Ever" finals, alongside "Just a Gigolo" and "Don't Come Around Here No More." Hot sake, wa-sabi, and hot damn.
Thanks for uploading the Completion Backwards Principle series. Is there a part 4 available?

The reason why they don't make videos like this anymore is because they don't make bands like this anymore.......

Unique group that could combine rock,dance,jazz, and retro 60's hygiene film elements! "Love Bomb" is a great cd as well!
