Cruisin' - Lucy and Ramona and Sunset Sam - Michael Nesmith

A true music and video pioneer (yes, I know he was one of the "Monkees") Michael Nesmith put together the first real music video -- and from the archives, here it is! He won the first grammy for his "video album" as well.

I always liked this song but could never find it anywhere. I graduated the year the song hit the airwaves 1981. Yikes! How time flies.

I remember first seeing this back on Night Flight, late night videos and movies on the USA network. I know MTV came out in the summer of 1981. It seems like this was before MTV but I'm not 100% sure. Thanks for posting this video! It has one of the best beats of all time.I can't believe more people haven't viewed it, I guess there to busy listening to crap ,I mean rap. This is rap though, Mike is mostly talking through the song , so where are all the rap people?
