Chris Davis - "Baby Driver"

A short film by Chris Davis.
Edited by DoubleVirgo.
From the KISS tribute album "Got to Foo: a sagafoo.com tribute to KISS."
"Baby Driver" written by Stan Penridge and Peter Criss.

Baby Driver has always been one of my favorite KISS songs. When asked to do a song for the tribute album, it didn't take long to settle on Baby Driver. I went for a Waylon Jennings meets KISS feel, which strangely enough sounds more like the ORIGINAL demo by Peter and Stan than the KISS version on Rock And Roll Over.
Had a blast doing the song and the video. Thanks to Sagafoo for giving me a reason.
And a very special thanks to DoubleVirgo for all the time he spent editing the HOURS of footage I shot down into the video you see here...

where did you get that sound byte from bout the driver etc?!

[ChrisDavisMedia]

@THRILLAKILLA187 - That would be me... I set up the video camera, pointed it at the wall and read the intro.. then I took the audio from it and added it into the video... or more fairly, DoubleVirgo added it into the video.

Mr. Davis, simply put this - and you - ROCK!

[ChrisDavisMedia]

THANK YOU!! I have been telling people that for YEARS!!!  LOL

[ChrisDavisMedia]

Want to say I am sorry to Mrkiss...

I removed your comment by accident..

To answer your question, yes I love KISS, so I would love to do another song in the future..

but here is your comment pasted from the e-mail I recieved.

Domino might be cool done that way..

"pretty interesting also my worst song from my fave Kiss album !!

[ChrisDavisMedia]

Dude, when you tell someone they fucking suck, you should own that statement.

"YOU FUCKING SUCK!"

See, that has much more PUNCH to it...

[HOSSHEAD]

[DarylDasherOfficial]

The attention to detail in this video is INCREDIBLE! I get the biggest kick out of this video and this version of the song. CTD rocks Outlaw style.

[RockSalami]

11:11 is my number. This is definitely way better, way more listenable, than the KISS version

[MrMedusaLvamp]

This is the best video I've seen in I dont know how long!...It's like a reallly cool KISS dream!!! The "Baby Driver" cover is soooooo fucking genius I almost pissed when I heard it!!!....The intro was too perfect and when it was DOUBLE VIRGO on the radio in the begining of the video....I had 2 laugh cause I knew I was gonna die....and I also thought of the Poisn video when Rickki's doin the dishes and he turns the KISS off and Poison starts playing!....LOVE..LOVE LOVE!!!!!!
