could you possibly get a worse audio track for this clip?? The sound quality is complete crap.

@taxid3rmy

This is an original TV to video recording from 1985. Frankly, it's miraculous the video tape plays at all. However, if you, or anyone else, has the same clip but in pristine condition, please post it and I will take this version down.

@madcowoom ... sorry, i understand the fact it's an old clip recoded from a video-tape, it was just a general thought - nothing personal; I was just being honest. That aside, you're to be commended for your efforts in bringing this rare footage of Tracie to light. :^)

Brilliant singer loved her in the 80s, Got her album today but this wasnt on it, One of the best female singers of that decade and one of the coolest and most important.
