Hope all is well with you.

I remember MTV using a bit of this in one of their promos around that time. BC Rich had just recently issued the Stealth model, the guitar that both Rick and the kid are playing in this video. I gather Rick was involved in designing, though after a couple years, he was doing ads for Steinberger. I think Bernie Rico Sr said once that BC Rich didn't build very many Stealth guitars.

The music lineup playing on the track is Rick Derringer lead vocals / lead guitar, Donnie Kisselbach bass, Alan Merrill rhythm guitar, Jimmy Wilcox drums. The song appeared on Derringer's "Good Dirty Fun" album. The trio here are miming, but with Rick are Kisselbach and Wilcox in this video clip. Merrill had moved on and gone solo on Polydor records when this was made.

My wife and I were talking and I said, I've heard all your stories. She said did you know I was in a music video. No, I said. She says, at Daytona Beach boardwalk, Rick Derringer, I Play Guitar. So I Google and this shows up. She's walking behind Rick for 15 seconds or so shaking her head to the music. She looks the same 27 years later :) Thanks for the post!
